Ko te ingoa o Beyoncé he mihi ki te ingoa wahine a tona whaea. Ko te tuahine iti o Beyoncé a Solange he kaiwaiata ano hoki, he kaikanikani hoki mo Destiny's Child. Ko Solange rāua ko Beyoncé ngā tuahine tuatahi e rua i whai pukaemi Nama 1. Ko Mathew he Amerikana Awherika, ko Tina he uri no Louisiana Creole (Awherika, Native American, me te French). Na tona whaea, he uri a Beyoncé no te kaiarahi Acadian a Joseph Broussard. I haere a Beyoncé ki te Kura Montessori o St. Mary i Houston, i reira i uru ai ia ki nga akomanga kanikani. I kitea tana taranata waiata i te wa i tiimata ai te kaiwhakaako kanikani a Darlette Johnson ki te hamama i tetahi waiata ka oti i a ia, ka taea te patu i nga puoro teitei. I haere tonu te hiahia o Beyoncé ki te puoro me te mahi i muri i tana wikitoria i tetahi whakaaturanga taranata kura i te whitu o ona tau, i te waiata a John Lennon "Imagine" ki te patu i nga tamariki 15/16-tau. I te ngahuru o te tau 1990, ka uru a Beyoncé ki te Kura Tuatahi o Parker, he kura miihini puoro i Houston, ka mahi ia me te roopu waiata o te kura. I haere ano ia ki te Kura Tuarua mo te Whakaaturanga me te Toi Whakaahua, ana i muri mai ko te Kura Tuarua o Alief Elsik. Ko Beyoncé hoki he mema o te waiata i te St. John's United Methodist Church hei kaiwaiata takitahi mo nga tau e rua. I te waru o Beyoncé, ko ia me tana hoa o te tamarikitanga a Kelly Rowland i tutaki ki a LaTavia Roberson i te wa e mahi ana mo tetahi roopu whakangahau mo nga kotiro katoa. I whakanohoia rātau ki tētahi rōpū e kiia nei ko Girl's Tyme me ētahi atu kotiro tokotoru, ā, i whakatangitangi rātau, i kanikani hoki i runga i te porowhita whakaaturanga pūkenga i Houston. Whai muri i tana kitenga i te roopu, ka kawea mai e te kaiwhakanao R&B a Arne Frager ki tana whare wananga i te Raki o California ka whakanohoia ki Star Search, te whakaaturanga taranata nui rawa atu i runga i te pouaka whakaata a motu i taua wa. Kaore a Girl's Tyme i wikitoria, ana i kii a Beyoncé i muri mai kaore i pai te waiata i mahia e raatau. I te tau 1995, ka wehe te papa o Beyoncé i tana mahi ki te whakahaere i te roopu. Na te nekehanga i heke ai te moni whiwhi o te whānau o Beyoncé, ā, i akina ōna mātua ki te...  Pātai: He aha tētahi mihi a Beyonce ki tōna whaea?
