Beyoncé
Beyonce Knowles was born and raised in Houston. Her birthday is Sept. 4, 1981, and her height is 5'7". She got her start with girl group Destiny's Child, which found fame with "No, No, No" in 1997, and sophomore album 'The Writing's on the Wall' in 1999. Queen Bey released her solo album, 'Dangerously in Love,' in 2003. It debuted at No. 1 on the July 12, 2003-dated Billboard 200. "Crazy in Love" was the first single from the album, and featured Jay-Z (whom the star would go on to marry in 2008); the track topped the Hot 100 for eight weeks. In February 2023, Beyonce became the top Grammy winner of all time, breaking out of a tie with late classical conductor Sir Georg Solti, when she brought her total to 32 awards at that point.
