Way back in 2007, Beyoncé, then 26, said during an appearance on Larry King Live that she was no longer interested in chart success.
In fact, just this year, the star sparked a huge cultural conversation with the release of her highly-anticipated country music album, Cowboy Carter, which incidentally also went straight to number one.
And, in a statement to the same publication, the star said that having the opportunity to uplift new talent is exactly what “motivates” her as she doubled down on her 17-year stance that chart success and music sales are no longer of high importance to her.
Needless to say, people have been left seriously impressed by this mindset — especially as Beyoncé’s latest comments have come at a time when her industry peer Taylor Swift has faced repeated accusations of actively trying to chart-block other artists, such as Billie Eilish and Charli XCX, from reaching the top spot.
