My hero is Beyonce. Beyonce is very talented and has a lot of heroic characteristics. Such as inspiration, enthusiasm, also social and intellectual qualities. Beyonce not only possesses those characteristics but she is also truthful, thoughtful, strong, brave, and an intelligent young woman. I like Beyonce because she gives courage to young singers who want to be like her when they're older. Beyonce never gives up, she is always out there trying to succeed in what she’s doing, and that also inspires young kids.

What makes Beyonce a hero is that she is a singer, songwriter, and actress. You would think she just had sung in front of other people and got famous for her voice, but that’s not true. She sacrificed a lot to get where she is now, which again, gives confidence to others. Critics have also said that Beyonce is a very hard-working woman in business.

My hero made a difference in my life because she reaches out to others. Beyonce is not in it for the fame and fortune, she is in it to be a successful business woman that gives to the needy and does care about her family, friends, and fans. She also became the first female artist to be awarded the International Artist Award at the American Music Awards. She is one of the most honored artists by the Grammys, and third among female artists.

My hero is Beyonce, an American recording artist, actress and fashion designer. Born and raised in Houston, Texas, she enrolled in various performing arts schools and was first exposed to singing and dancing competitions as a child. Knowles rose to fame in the late 1990s as the lead singer of the R&B girl group Destiny’s Child, one of the world's best-selling girl groups of all time. As the year past she began starring on TV shows and in movies. She also got more famous when she was in concerts, photo shoots, magazines, newspapers, etc. but she also gives to charities and the needy. Overall, Beyonce is an inspiring person who is a great role model and is not just all about the fame and fortune.
