Plot

Knowles was born in Houston, Texas, the daughter of Mathew Knowles, a professional record manager, and Tina Knowles, a costume designer and hair stylist. Knowles was baptized after her mother's maiden name, as a tribute to her mother. She is the older sister of Solange a singer-songwriter and actress.

Knowles was schooled at St. Mary's Elementary School in Texas, where she went in dance including ballet and jazz. Her talent in singing was discovered when her dance instructor began humming a song hitting the high-pitched notes. Although a shy girl, as her mother considered her, Knowles' interest in music and performing began. After participating in a school talent show. Once she had a moment on the stage, she overcame her shyness and wanted to become a singer and performer. By age seven, Knowles had entered her first talent show, singing John Lennons Imagine. She won the contest and was honored with a victory. At the same age, Knowles started gaining attention from the press, having been mentioned in the Houston newspaper as a nominee for the local performing arts award The Sammy.

In the fall of 1990, Knowles enrolled in Parker Elementary School, a music magnet school in Houston, where she would perform on-stage with the school's choir. She also attended the High School for the Performing and Visual Arts in Houston and later went to some High School, located in the Houston suburban .Knowles was a soloist in the choir of her church, in St. John's United Methodist Church.She only lasted in the choir for two years, however, because she was with her newfound job.

At the age of eight, Knowles met LaTavia Roberson while in an audition for an all-girl entertainment group. They, along with Knowles' friend Kelly Rowland, were placed into a group that performed rapping and dancing. Originally named Girl's Time they were eventually cut down to six members.With Knowles and Rowland, Girl's Time attracted audience nationally. West coast R&B producer, flew into Houston to see them. He eventually brought them to his studio—The Plant Recording Studios—in Northern California, with Knowles' vocals being featured because they thought she had it in her and the ability to sing. As part of efforts to sign Girl's Time to a major label record deal, the producers strategy was to put them in Star Search, the biggest talent show on national TV that time. Girl's Time participated in the competition but lost it because the song they performed was not good, Knowles herself admitted. Knowles had her first "professional setback" after that defeat, but regained confidence after learning that pop stars Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake had also the same experience.

To manage the group, Knowles' father resigned in 1995 from his job. He dedicated his time and established them in a boot camp for their training. The move reduced Knowles' familys income by half and her parents moved into separated apartments because of the pressure. Not long after the inclusion of Rowland, Mathew cut the original lineup to four, with LeToya Luckett joining in 1993. Rehearsing in Tina's Headliners Salon and their backyards, the group continued performing as an opening act for other established R&B girl groups of the time, Tina contributed to the cause by designing their costumes, which she continued to do throughout the Destiny's Child . With the continued support of Mathew, they kept on doing it before record labels and were finally signed to Records lables, only to be dropped months later before they could release an album.
