Beyoncé rarely does interviews. When she does, however, she definitely has some things to say. The superstar is the cover subject for the October issue of GQ in a story titled, “The Business of Being Beyoncé Knowles-Carter.” Beyoncé is adding spirits to her empire of music, clothing and haircare lines with a whiskey named after her great-grandfather, SirDavis. She’s also reflecting on her life and career. Having this year released her eighth album, the acclaimed “Act II: Cowboy Carter,” Beyoncé told the publication, “I am proud of what I have been able to do, but I also recognize the sacrifices — mine and my family’s.” “There was a time when I was pushing myself to meet unrealistic deadlines, while not taking the time to enjoy the benefits of why I was working so hard. There aren’t many of us from the late ’90s who were taught to focus on mental health,” she reflected. “Back then, I had little boundaries, and said yes to everything. But I’ve paid my dues a hundred times over.” Which is probably why she wasn’t initially on board when her now 12-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy, wanted to join her mom as a performer during the Renaissance tour.
