Beyonce (Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter) Quotes
You know, equality is a myth, and for some reason, everyone accepts the fact that women don't make as much money as men do. I don't understand that. Why do we have to take a backseat?

They define what's sexy. And men define what's feminine. It's ridiculous.
