Beyonce: 'Why Did God Give Me This Life?'

We look at Beyonce, and think - she's a famous singer/clothes designer, she's married to a famous rapper/clothes designer/label manager, has more money than she can count, lives in a mansion and is world-famous, so what more could she want?  

But apparently the 29 year-old singer is at times, not very happy with her life. 

Seen wearing no make-up, she speaks very openly about how lonely she gets while on tour, in her new documentary entitled 'I Am World Tour' which airs on Thursday as a special.

Beyonce, ranked as the ninth most powerful woman in the world by Forbes, turns the camera on herself, and is seen shedding tears as she ponders: 'Why did God give me this life?'  About this clip she says that it was the hardest clip to show in the documentary, stating: 

'There was one moment I was in China and I was in this huge suite and I looked out the window and there were just thousands of people walking and I couldn't believe my life,' adding: 'I guess I was a bit lonely and I wanted to talk to someone so I opened up my computer and I just talked.'

She further adds of her decision to star in the documentary: 'I wanted the fans to be able to see what I see. It's a lot of things I reveal about myself that I could never give to a director.'

Beyonce, who has sold more than 11 millon albums worldwide, is also seen in the documentary wearing traditional Egyptian coverings whilst visiting the Pyramids in Egypt. 

A special preview clip - aired in the U.S. today -  shows Beyonce pondering as to why she is so successful: 'Sometimes its overwhelming. Why did God give me my talent, my gift, my family. But I know you're not supposed to question God. Only God knows. And I don't take it for granted.'

She also talks a bit about the pregnancy rumours, stating she is not pregnant, but would like to be in the near future: 'One of the reasons I haven't had a child yet is because there are certain things I want to do before I focus on being a mother. I'm not there yet but I'm close.'

We always admired Beyonce for keeping quiet about her personal life and thoughts, but this is a surprise indeed! Her statements have upset many, and that it is definitely understandable. She has everything a woman could possibly want, but is still unhappy, and so is just goes to show, the grass is not always greener on the other side! What do you think? ...
