Beyoncé has had one of the greatest careers of all time from a bare-bones beginning. It’s hardly an exaggeration to say that she is one of the most influential artists. Coming from modest beginnings, Beyoncé has managed to win 28 Grammys and has topped Billboard’s list of female performers for decades. Early in her career, the ‘Lemonade‘ singer performed with a group of young female R&B singers. Her debut solo effort, ‘Dangerously in Love‘, was released in 2003 and immediately became a critical and commercial success.
Beyoncé not only has a perfect professional life but is also truly blessed in terms of her personal life. Unlike many Hollywood celebrities and artists, she has been married for a very long time to Jay-Z. So let us know more details about Beyonce’s relationship with rapper Jay-Z.

It became the most-watched broadcast in MTV history, pulling in 12.4 million viewers.
