Fans are still getting to know Sasha Fierce, Beyoncé’s musical alter ego, formally introduced on the singer’s 2008 album, “I Am…Sasha Fierce.”
Most probably don’t know, however, that the singer/songwriter has been friends with Fierce since elementary school.
Manager and father Mathew Knowles will never forget the moment he first met Fierce. A 7-year-old Beyoncé was entered in a talent search open to Houston elementary and middle school students. The song she sang? John Lennon’s “Imagine.” “Beyoncé was the youngest,” Knowles says. “She got up onstage and when she was finished, she received a standing ovation. Her mother [Tina Knowles] and I looked at each other and said, ‘That can’t be our Beyoncé. She’s shy and quiet.’ “
Twenty-two years later, that simmering brew of shy, quiet talent peppered with fierce determination and ambition is at a boiling point. The former frontwoman of Destiny’s Child has come into her own, enjoying one of the best years of a still-evolving solo career.
On Oct. 2, Beyoncé added one more honor to her array of accolades when she accepted Billboard’s Woman of the Year Award. , recognizing the year’s top 30 women in the music business.
============
ON HER GRIND
In the past 12 months alone, Beyoncé has accomplished several career milestones. She not only sang "American the Beautiful" during the opening ceremony of the 2009 presidential inauguration, she also sang the Etta James hit "At Last" as President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama danced their first dance at the Neighborhood Inaugural Ball.
In March Beyoncé launched her worldwide I Am...tour, which has grossed some $53.5 million to date, according to Billboard Boxscore. She's also the star and executive producer of the 2009 film "Obsessed," which opened at No. 1 and has grossed more than $68.3 million in North America, according to Nielsen EDI.
"I Am...Sasha Fierce" debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 when it was released by Columbia Records in November. The album, the singer's third solo set, has spun off a string of Billboard Hot 100 hits: "If I Were a Boy," "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)," "Halo," "Ego" and "Sweet Dreams."
After accepting MTV's video of the year award for her iconic "Single Ladies" video a few weeks ago, Beyoncé gained a new level of fan and industry respect at the Sept. 13 event when she unselfishly brought Taylor Swift back onstage to complete the acceptance speech cut off by Kanye West's surprise interruption.
Beyoncé also continued her commitment this year to ongoing philanthropic projects and entrepreneurial activities from fashion to fragrances.
"She's incredibly creative," says Rob Stringer, chairman of Sony Music Label Group. "She also works phenomenally hard to create the opportunities she has. People tend to think there's always an image-maker behind female pop stars. That's not the case with Beyoncé. There's no element of diva or difficulty about her; she takes control of the process and makes it happen. She's grown beautifully in that role."
RECORD SALES
In 2004, the act released "Destiny Fulfilled" and, a year later, the trio disbanded, closing a significant chapter in girl-group history. To date, Destiny's Child has sold 16.9 million albums in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan. (Worldwide, according to Sony, Destiny's Child and Beyoncé cumulatively have sold 100 million units, including albums, physical and digital singles, and music DVDs).
SKILLS
"What people may not know about her is that besides being such an accomplished performer, she's a great producer," adds Big Jon Platt, president of West Coast creative for EMI Music Publishing. "She also has some of the best A&R instincts I've ever come across."
Beyoncé's creative instincts and multitasking skills provide the underpinnings for her other pursuits, including acting, business ventures and philanthropy.
HUMANITARIAN
The Survivor Foundation -- formed by Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland together with the Knowles family -- has donated more than $2.5 million for transitional housing for Hurricane Katrina victims and storm evacuees in the Houston area. Among the foundation's additional initiatives is the Knowles-Rowland Center for Youth in Houston.
On her current I Am...world tour, Beyoncé joined forces with the General Mills brand Hamburger Helper and the charity Feeding America to help deliver more than 3.5 million meals to local food banks through fan donations. The singer also devotes time to the Make a Wish Foundation, meeting and talking with children during her tour stops. She underscores her songs' female empowerment themes through her work with GEMS (Girls Educational and Mentoring Services).
#3 ON FORBES for musicians making the most money
This year, Forbes listed Beyoncé at No. 4 on its list of the 100 Most Powerful and Influential Celebrities, No. 3 on its tally of the top-grossing musicians and No. 1 on the countdown of top Best-Paid Celebrities Under 30, estimating her earnings in 2008-09 at $87 million.
