Beyoncé Interviews Sister Solange for ‘Interview’ Magazine: Must-Read
Solange is the cover star of the new issue of "Interview" magazine, and besides it featuring beautiful photos of the "Don't Touch My Hair" singer taken by the renowned Mikael Jansson, the new issue includes an exclusive interview with Solange done by...*drum rolls please*... her big sister Beyoncé! aka. Blue Ivy's mother, aka. the "Formation" diva, aka. the Queen of the Universe.
You can bet the number of coins Solange and Bee received into their bank accounts for this magazine shoot/sister-sister interview must've been legendary! I wouldn't be surprised at all if "Interview" magazine goes go bankrupt next month, lol. But hey, at least they paid that good money to get this super unique interview and what they've done will always be remembered and appreciated by the millions of music lovers.
So did Solange have to say to her big sis? A few highlights below:
BEYONCÉ: You write your own lyrics, you co-produce your own tracks, you write your own treatments for your videos, you stage all of your performances, all of the choreography ... Where does the inspiration come from?
SOLANGE: It varies. For one, I got to have a lot of practice. Growing up in a household with a master class such as yourself definitely didn't hurt. And, as far back as I can remember, our mother always taught us to be in control of our voice and our bodies and our work, and she showed us that through her example.
BEYONCÉ: That I know. When do you feel most free?
SOLANGE: When I'm in a musical meditation.
BEYONCÉ: "No Me Queda Mas" or "I Could Fall in Love"?
SOLANGE: This is so unfair! "No Me Queda Mas."
BEYONCÉ: What is the funniest text you got from our mom this week? [both laugh] That's too personal, never mind. You've got to love Mama Tina. How does it feel to have the dopest wedding photo of all time?
SOLANGE: Oh my God, that is subjective!
BEYONCÉ: What makes you laugh the hardest?
SOLANGE: The Real Housewives of Atlanta, hands-down.
BEYONCÉ: Really?! I didn't know that.
SOLANGE: I watch it religiously, and I am in stitches the whole time.
BEYONCÉ: One of my proudest moments as a sister was when I was able to introduce you to your hero, Nas, and you cried and acted a fool. I was so surprised that Mrs. Too-cool-for-everything was acting a fool. Is there another human being that would get that reaction out of you now if you met him/her?
SOLANGE: Diana Ross. For sure. I broke out in some hives when I went to her concert. Alan was like, "Uh, you're breaking out into hives. Calm down."
BEYONCÉ: And, honestly, growing up, how did I do as a big sister?
SOLANGE: You did a kickass job. You were the most patient, loving, wonderful sister ever. In the 30 years that we've been together, I think we've only really, like, butted heads ... we can count on one hand.
BEYONCÉ: I was expecting something funny, but I'll take it. Thank you
I just could read this interview again and again. Found it super cute!
No doubt Beyoncé was the best interviewer Solange could ever asked for.
