“I can’t wait, because 29 is very strange. You’re still in your 20s but you feel like you’re supposed to be 30. I feel like a woman. I feel like I’m very aware of who I am. I feel great and I feel like 30 is the ideal age, because you’re mature enough to know who you are and to have your boundaries and your standards, and not be afraid, too polite – but you’re young enough to be a young woman. I’m so looking forward to it.”
Beyonce, on turning 30
