CG!: Hee-hee! You've been performing for a long time! Do you feel like you've had to sacrifice anything to become such a star?
Beyoncé: More than anything, a social life. It's not that I didn't do anything. We went to theme parks every week. We had the girls over the house every day. It was like a slumber party. We went shopping, we went to the malls, the movies. We did all of this stuff, had a good old time. But school is usually where you develop a social life. And that's where you meet guys, and you go on your dates, and I didn't get to go to high school. I didn't get that. That's why I don't have as many friends as I would like.
CG!: It must be hard to just hang out.
Beyoncé: It's hard without security. That sucks. I don't even want to do it anymore. I can't call and hang out with a bunch of girls. It's not like I can go shopping and go to the mall and go get my nails done without people asking for autographs and taking pictures. Then when it's Michelle, Kelly and me, it makes it even harder. It's like, "Destiny's Child is here." It makes it even harder. So that is a sacrifice. Normalcy is sacrificed. But that's just a part of it. You can't complain about it.
