LOS ANGELES, Nov 26 (Reuters) - Pop superstar Beyonce is
stepping behind the camera to direct a behind-the-scenes
documentary about her personal and professional life, U.S. cable
channel HBO said on Monday.
The currently untitled film will debut on February 16 and
show the Grammy-winning singer's life in the recording studio,
readying for live performances and running her own TV and music
production company.
"Everybody knows Beyonce's music, but few know Beyonce the
person," HBO Programming President Michael Lombardo said in a
statement. "Along with electrifying footage of Beyonce on stage,
this unique special looks beyond the glamour to reveal a
vibrant, vulnerable, unforgettable woman."
The documentary will also feature moments in the "Crazy in
Love" singer's family life and first-person footage Beyonce
captured on her laptop.
Beyonce, 31, who is married to hip hop artist and mogul
Jay-Z, will headline the Super Bowl halftime show in New Orleans
on February 3.
