Beyonce is more than just a pop star -- she is the most powerful woman in the entertainment industry. She has surprised the world multiple times in the last few years, and each time the world has come to stop because we are all so fascinated by what she is doing.

Why are we so fascinated by her? It's because she keeps to herself. We never really know what is going on, and we find out exactly what she wants us to find out. There were rumblings of trouble in her marriage with Jay-Z, but nothing was confirmed until she recently put out her newest visual album, "Lemonade."

Beyonce has changed the game and stopped the world. She literally says it in her song with Nicki Minaj titled "Feeling Myself." Here are some examples of exactly when and how made the world stop turning:

When she dropped "Lemonade" this week through an HBO special. During this special, Bey addressed the rumors that Jay-Z cheated on her head on. She did so in an amazingly artistic, poetic way. The music itself is amazing. Each song shows off a different side of Beyonce's many different talents. Also, now everyone is dying to figure out exactly who "Becky with the good hair" is. But, that's the fun part. Beyonce keeps her private life private, and she reveals to us what she wants to reveal. And she does so through her music.

When she literally caused a power outage after her iconic Super Bowl performance in 2013. She reunited with Destiny's Child and had one of the most talked about performances in Super Bowl history. And she delayed the game because they couldn't handle her greatness and the power went out.



Beyonce returned to the Super Bowl this year. She was a special guest during Coldplay's halftime show. She performed her controversial single "Formation" that was released as a surprise the day before. She almost fell during her performance, but she caught herself effortlessly. They slayage didn't end there, though. Immediately after the performance a commercial aired that announced the "Formation World Tour." She literally stopped the world at the Super Bowl again and this time, it wasn't even her half-time show.

On December 13, 2013, the world stopped. Beyonce released a self-titled "visual album" without prior announcement. It sold over 800,000 copies in just three days. Each song on the album came with a music video. The internet stopped, the world stopped. It was all anyone could talk about. With this album, Beyonce did something amazing. She made a statement. She talked about feminism, infidelity, motherhood, jealousy, marriage, and her sex life with her husband. She tore down so many walls with this groundbreaking album and it is still one of my all-time favorite albums.

Beyonce is a cultural icon. She is, in my opinion, the most powerful woman in the world. She is an extremely talented performer, but she is also an incredible philanthropist. She truly is the Queen.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
