Beyonce — Tammy Gagne

Today she is one of the best-selling female artists in the world. But not so long ago Beyoncé was part of an amateur all-girl group. No, not Destinys Child. Long before the beloved trio hit the airwaves with number one singles like Say My Name, Beyoncé was competing in talent shows as a member of Gyrls Tyme. Today Queen B rules the worlds of both music and film, topping the charts and appearing in some of the most popular movies. And at the end of the day, she gets to share it all with her rap-artist husband, Jay-Z.
