Beyonce is making her solo comeback and taking over Marie Claire’s October issue. She talks about all sorts of things in the interview from her alter ego, to being a role model to her political views. Here are some quotes:

On why she uses her alter ego ‘Sasha’:

“Things I do when I am performing I would never do normally”

“I always wish I could feel the way I do on stage when I’m doing a movie because I have out of body experiences…I’m so fearless”

On who her song ‘Irresistible’ is about:

“The obvious person is not the person at all”

On being a pop star:

“There is a time limit on being a pop star yes, being a legend, an icon, absolutely not”

“I’m over being a popstar, I don’t wana be a hot girl I wana be iconic”

“There are responsibilities that come along with this life…trying to have a romantic meal without someone sneaking in to film the whole thing. I have to work really hard and it’s fine because I like it, I love it, but it’s a lot of sacrifice”

On being a role model:

” I think I’m opening doors for more black women, just like Halle Berry and Diana Ross opened doors for me”

On Barack Obama:

“I’m really proud, I think we’re making a bit of progress, it’s an exciting time. We all feel part of our country now”
