Despite now being regarded as one of the world's most beautiful women, the 'Bootylicious' singer has revealed she was a "chubby and ugly" child who struggled to fit into her trousers.
She said: "Of course I've had an ugly period. When I was around 10 or 11, my mother gave me this really ugly haircut and I was really, really chubby. So chubby that my family used to all lay me down flat so they could zip up my jeans. It took four of them and I would lie there on the bed while they all got to it."
Beyonce - who is married to rapper Jay-Z - was just 15 when she found fame with her group Destiny's Child and admits she sometimes regrets not having normal teenage experiences.
The 27-year-old star added to Britain's Glamour magazine: "There were certain moments when I was 18 and would look out of the window and see girls going to parties with their boyfriends and think, 'How am I ever going to meet anybody?' I couldn't just go on a date and nobody was going to ask me out.
"I was working too hard and not exposed to people my own age so I didn't know how I was going to meet them."
