No Amount Of Money Is Worth My Peace – Beyonce

Popular singer, Beyonce has come out to speak about her efforts to maintain her privacy in this digital age.

She recently had her say during a sit-down with GQ Magazine, and fans have been reacting.

According to her, we live in a world of easy access that she currently tries super hard to ensure her personal life isn’t turned into a brand.

Beyonce added that celebrities can easily turn their lives into performance art, but no amount of money is worth her peace.

Her words, “We live in a world of access.

We have access to so much information—some facts and some complete bullshit disguised as truth. Our children can FaceTime and see their friends at any given moment. My husband and I? We used calling cards and Skype when we were falling in love. I couldn’t afford the international hotel bills, so I literally would get international calling cards to call him.

Just recently, I heard an AI song that sounded so much like me it scared me. It’s impossible to truly know what’s real and what’s not.

One thing I’ve worked extremely hard on is making sure my kids can have as much normalcy and privacy as possible, ensuring my personal life isn’t turned into a brand. It’s very easy for celebrities to turn our lives into performance art. I have made an extreme effort to stay true to my boundaries and protect myself and my family.

No amount of money is worth my peace.”

WOW.
