Beyoncé Knowles-Carter is an American singer, songwriter, actress, record producer and dancer. Born and raised in Houston,
Texas, Beyoncé performed in various singing and dancing competitions as a child. She rose to fame in the late 1990s as lead
singer of the R&B girl-group Destiny's Child. Managed by her father, Mathew Knowles, the group became one of the best-selling
girl groups in history. Their break saw Beyoncé's theatrical film debut in Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002) and the release of
her first solo album, Dangerously in Love (2003). The album established her as a solo artist worldwide, debuting at number one
on the US Billboard 200 chart and earning five Grammy Awards, and featured the Billboard Hot 100 number one singles "Crazy
in Love" and "Baby Boy". Beyonce is married to rapper and record producer, Jay-Z. The couple have 3 children.

"If I Were a Boy" is a song from Beyoncé’s third studio album “I Am... Sasha Fierce”. It was inspired by the difficult break-up of a
romantic relationship. Columbia Records released "If I Were a Boy" to US radio on October 8, 2008, as a double A-side single
album's alongside "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" as the lead singles. The two songs showcased the contrast between
Beyoncé's personality and her aggressive onstage persona, Sasha Fierce. A Spanish version of the song, titled "Si Yo Fuera un
Chico", was digitally released in Mexico and Spain.
