Here are the vital life lessons we’ve learned from Beyoncé.
Throw your hands up at us!
Queen B reminds us not to follow suit - a woman does not need to be kept by a man. We must lead our own lives, and not be led. AMEN SISTA!

The title to the singer’s inspiring documentary that aired early last year taught each of us to live life, pursue our dreams as we only get one chance, so make the most of it.
“Sometimes we don’t reach for the stars, sometimes we are satisfied with what people tell us we are supposed to be satisfied with. And I’m just not going for it.”
In her documentary Beyoncé revealed that she does not fear messing up, she learns from it and moves on.
“I’m not afraid to make a mistake. I embrace mistakes, the make you who you are.” Never was a truer word spoken.
It has been quite the year for Beyoncé as her personal life was propelled into the spotlight following the infamous Jay Z and Solange lift debacle at the 2014 Met Gala afterparty.
Amid several break up rumours, the couple's 'On The Run Tour' was a phenomenal success, earning the pair a combined $100 million.
Beyoncé and Jay Z put on a united front at the MTV VMA's last week with the birthday girl performing a 15-minute medley of hits, referencing the bust up in a remix of hit song 'Flawless', "Of course sometimes shit go down when it’s a billion dollars on an elevator".
The truth is, we've all got our own sh*t going on, no one is perfect, you've just got to pick yourself up and move on.
Simple.
Lets all raise a pint of Guinness to Queen B...
