Beyonce Knowles’ success is not without sacrifices. The multi-award winning diva claims that being a celebrity has taken away her right to live a normal life.

The 28-year-old R&B songstress, who is married to hip-hop mogul Jay-Z, told The Observer that she “just sacrificed life” in order to be successful.

She said she gave up normal things like being able to walk down the street and being ale to make mistakes and not have it covered by the media.

Knowles added that she was raised believing that “anything that’s worth anything takes a lot of sacrifice.”
