Outtakes From Beyonce’s GQ Interview/Photoshoot

Via GQ

Beyoncé’s GQ magazine is currently on newsstands as we speak. While men (and some women) all over America are trying not to trip over their own slobbering tongues, there are some interview outtakes and pics that might make that a little bit harder. No pun intended…

On being an “Independent Woman”:

“I was independent before I met my husband, and we have such a natural chemistry and a genuine relationship, and it’s based on the things that relationships are supposed to be based on. I’ve seen, growing up, when a woman or a man in a relationship—it doesn’t matter which one—doesn’t feel confident, they feel a bit trapped. Your self-worth is determined by you. You don’t have to depend on someone telling you who you are.”

On how child-birth affected her life:

“When I gave birth, that was the first time I truly let go and surrendered. And it taught me how amazing that feels… Giving birth made me realize the power of being a woman. I have so much more substance in my life. And expressing that excitement and that sensuality and the connection I have with my husband—I’m a lot more comfortable with that now. I actually feel like my child introduced me to myself.”
