UPDATE: Beyonce and HBO have teamed up for an intimate look into the singer's life.
Beyonce
and HBO have announced plans for the singer to star in and direct a
documentary about her life, debuting on the cable network on February
16, 2013.
According to a post on her Facebook page,
the film is a "fusion of video that provides raw, unprecedented access
to the private entertainment icon and high-voltage performances." It
includes first-person footage, some of which was shot by Beyonce on her
laptop, where she "reflects on the realities of celebrity, the refuge
she finds onstage and the transcendent joy of becoming a mother last
year."
"Everybody knows Beyoncé’s music, but few know Beyoncé the person,”
said Michael Lombardo, president of HBO Programming. “Along with
electrifying footage of Beyoncé onstage, this unique special looks
beyond the glamour to reveal a vibrant, vulnerable, unforgettable
woman."
