Beyoncé Knowles

Beyoncé Knowles found her voice as the star of Destiny's Child, which was shaped by her manager father Mathew and stylist mother Tina. After 1998's remix of "No, No, No" and four other No.1 hits, DC lost three members, turned into a Grammy-toting trio, and became one of the biggest girl groups in music history.
In 2003, Beyoncé parted from the girls (temporarily) to release her debut album, Dangerously in Love, which earned her six more Grammys. In 2006, she followed up with B'Day and later re-released it in Spanish, collaborating with Latin pop star Shakira.
The multi-talented Knowles has graced the cover of Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue, expanded her resume as a designer and dazzled as an actress in the musical Dreamgirls. In 2008, the bootylicious singer finally married main squeeze Jay-Z in an intimate ceremony at his Tribeca apartment in New York.
