Tina Knowles<\/a> made it her “mission” to protect Beyonc\u00e9 at the start of her career. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tina Knowles has tried to protect her daughter Beyonc\u00e9 since she shot to fame as part of Destiny’s Child<\/p>\n

The 70-year-old businesswoman – who is mother to global superstar Beyonc\u00e9, 43, with her ex-husband Mathew Knowles – signed up to be the stylist for Destiny’s Child when her daughter first made it big in the late 1990s alongside Kelly Rowland<\/a> and Michelle Williams because she was “determined” to look after them amid their sudden rise to fame. <\/p>\n

She told Glamour: “Very early on, I started doing the girls\u2019 hair to earn my keep, so that I could travel with them because I wanted to protect them\u2014not because I wanted to go and be on planes every day, because there was nothing glamorous about it, but it was to protect my kids. The industry can chew you up and spit you out. And I was determined that there were not going to be certain elements around them and that they weren\u2019t going to get eaten up by that. It just became my mission. Those are your kids, and you want to protect them and they need protection. Trust me, they need it.”<\/p>\n

Tina – who is also mother to 38-year-old singer Solange Knowles – has seen her eldest go on to become one of the biggest music artists in the world but is most “proud” that she managed to instill a discipline into her children that has prevented them from letting the world of show business go to their heads. <\/p>\n

She said: “There are so many proud moments, and it might sound clich\u00e9, but it\u2019s the truest statement I could ever make: I\u2019m the most proud when they do something that is artful that they love, but that also has good repercussions on the world. I can\u2019t stop smiling. After a while, you get kind of used to the big moments, but those kinds of moments are really, really different.<\/p>\n

\n“I\u2019m proud to say that I do see the things that I instilled in them\u2014treat people well, do not get stuck on yourself\u2014because we had some moments where I was like, ‘Listen, they can pick up their own suitcases.’<\/p>\n

\n\u201cYou look people in the eye, say hello, don\u2019t turn into a diva. That\u2019s not going to work here.’ You have to teach your kids that. I don\u2019t believe that that\u2019s something that they just get, because everybody\u2019s trying to handle everything for them and kissing their butts sometimes. And I am like, \u201cNo, no, no, you\u2019re not helpless.<\/p>\n

\n“So I\u2019m most proud when they\u2019re good people.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
