Beyoncé: "I have Two Beehives, Real Ones"

For Beyoncé, it’s the Beyhive, her millions of loyal fans, and then there are the actual beehives the award-winning superstar admits to having at her home. 

Gracing three different British Vogue covers for December, Beyoncé shares this delightful piece of fun fact in her cover story interview when asked by editor-in-chief Edward Ennifu” what is something I would find surprising about you?”

The “one-woman powerhouse,” replies.

“I know it’s random, but I have two beehives. Real ones. I’ve had them at my house for a while now. I have around 80,000 bees and we make hundreds of jars of honey a year. I started the beehives because my daughters, Blue and Rumi, both have terrible allergies, and honey has countless healing properties.”

The Texas-born singer also shares what she loves most about her home state, “favorite delicacy.”

“It’s good eating in Texas! I love Cajun seafood at Pappadeaux. The barbecue in Texas is mmmm. So is the Mexican food and the soul food. We ate soul food every Sunday after church. There was nothing better than when a little bit of candied yams got on your oxtail and macaroni.”

And like almost every relatable person, Beyoncé misplaces her cell phone and keys but makes up for it in attention to detail.

“I’m always losing my phone in my house or office, and I never know where my keys are. My phone is always dead. I get days and dates confused all the time, but guaranteed, I’ll remember every detail of a conversation, what you were wearing or how your hair was styled. It’s absolutely ridiculous.”
