Seventeen Magazine named Beyonce 2008 Style Star Of The Year and the star attended the unveiling of Dec08/Jan09 cover.?In the issue, she talks about her new double-album, I Am…Sasha Fierce,?her marriage to?Jay-Z,?and explains how SHE is her worst competitor:
On finally settling down with Jay-Z:??I was 18 when we first met, 19 when we first started dating. There was no rush ? no one expected me to run off and get married. I really don?t believe that you will love the same thing when you?re 20 as you do at 30. So that was my rule: Before the age of 25, I would never get married. I feel like you have to get to know yourself, know what you want, spend some time by yourself, and be proud of who you are before you can share that with someone else.?
On competion from other artists:?“I feel like I’m my competition. I don’t try to compete with other people. I just try to better myself. I go and watch everything that I’ve done. I have my YouTube days, when I watch every performance, and I listen to my music, and I watch my videos to figure out what I need to do, what I need to fix, and how to become a better singer.
