Arty-Fact: Beyoncé has earned a reputation as a diva following her rise to fame with record-breaking R&B girl group Destiny's Child to becoming one of the world’s most successful performers of all time. Markus, however, disagrees.
“[Beyoncé] is very down to earth, and from 2000, for over 10 years that I worked with her, I never noticed a change where all of a sudden, oh, now she has a big head or something. I never noticed anything like that. She was always the same.
"I never found her to be abusive in any way whatsoever with diva-like behaviour.
“She's been very, very relaxed in the studio. Maybe it is [her] knowing that I work with celebrities all the time. I'm not star-struck.
"I don't get nervous because a big celebrity's coming into my door. I have not witnessed any sort of nasty behaviour.” ~ Markus Klinko
