Pre-Superstar Style
"Growing up, I was a tomboy. I refused to carry a purse and wouldn't wear a dress. That was the eighties and it was all about the hip-hop influencebaggy
jeans and big shirts. [Her mother, Tina Knowles] hated it! But then I started singing and ended up watching all of the footage of the Supremes and
Tina Turner. And I thought to myself, 'They're so beautiful. I want to be like them.'"
