When Did Beyonce Become Famous is a question of much debate? Did she become famous performing as part of a group known as Destiny's Child or did she achieve more fame as an individual artist? She has achieved stardom both as a group and as an individual artist. But many would claim that she found her true calling as an individual artist and is it where her talent came to the fore completely.
In Destiny's Child she was their lead singer and a lot of her group's success depended on her vocal chords. When she did decide to sing individually she made that transformation seem so easy and scripted one of the biggest success stories ever. Her album Dangerously in Love was one of the biggest hit of all time with hits like Crazy in Love and Baby Boy riding the crest of popularity and remaining on the bestsellers chart for a long time.
The album which achieved the rare distinction of been both a commercial and critical success went on to win five Grammy awards. It is one of the best success stories ever crafted by a singer breaking away from a group. Many fade away from an initial success but Beyonce just built on her success story further by delivering one more hit album Birthday. The album like its predecessor also achieved great success. She is one of the most successful artists of the decade and has more than 12 top ten hits and 5 number one hits to her distinction. Beyonce also has the distinction of been the artist at the number one spot for the most consecutive weeks of 37 in this decade.
Her popularity and fame has made Forbes list her at number four of the most powerful entertainers of this decade. With her career in films also slated to hit the big time the year of Beyonce Knowles has just started and the debate about When Did Beyonce Become Famous will be debated again and again.
