Beyonce isn't the most articulate person in the world and kinda struggles with putting her points across in interviews (and when she does speak, she says a lot of nothing) so i guess maybe it was her decision to focus on her strengths (looking sexy and powerful on IG) as opposed to flubbing all those interviews.
Maybe? Who knows lol.

Beyoncé's is simply worded differently but they have the same meaning.

You don't need to waste your time arguing with him. You know that he is always shady towards Beyoncé

If she wants to be so private, why does she agreeing to be on magazine covers? She's private to give a simple interview, but not to appear all glamed up in photoshoots and having a journalist write a praise article?
Everything about her life has to be filtered through a rose colored glass.

Next week someone is going to write an article about how Beyoncé no longer likes Popeye’s and the haters are going to scream and cry about how she CHANGED SO MUCH and that is why they could never like her.

Knowing that you're stupid gives you a higher form of enlightenment, especially moreso than those who are stupid and aren't self-aware to realize it, i.e. Lady Gaga. Forrest Gump becomes an acclaimed, celebrated, billionaire, all whilst being self-aware that he's not smart. Jenny, on the other hand, who is just as stupid as Forrest, isn't self-aware that she's stupid, and therefore can be represented here as Gaga, because, let's face it, Gaga also tried to kill herself and will probably, at some point, die of AIDS.
In conclusion, Beyoncé not giving interviews because she's aware she's a moron is a good thing, not a bad thing. With the invention of social media, she can still have a presence, without having to say a single word anymore.
(Note: Katy Perry is also a moron. She's not self-aware, unfortunately.)

I have to say also the "daffy" comment made me want to punch the writer in the throat. How hard is it to comprehend that she can't fathom the power and magnitude of her success? That the very idea of how far she has come far exceed anything she ever thought or can absorb? He made this damn article about that very thing, are you "daffy" too? Like what the ****....THATS WHY SHE DONT GIVE INTERVIEWS. Because of dumbass journalists like this thinking having a degree equal common sense.

I think this is a good decision. She doesn't have the charm in her interviews to make me think she's interesting. Most pop stars don't, but Beyonce specifically comes across as having a flat personality.
I also don't think there's anything wrong with her protecting her image. She may come across robot-like, but she's doing it to sell herself. That's what celebrities need to do to maintain their career. Taylor Swift is doing something similar but in a different fashion, and look at how big she is now. I don't think any pop star in the last decade, including Beyonce, has progressed her career as impressively and fast as Taylor has.
Calculating people know how to get what they want. Taylor Swift is most certainly a cunning woman, and Beyonce's management is definitely calculating as well. Beyonce's character doesn't give me the impression that she's in full force of her career, but then again, a lot of pop stars aren't, so who cares.

And what is wrong with that? She's not running for President. Do we expect Hillary Clinton to sing and dance?

I'm convinced you think you're better than everyone else. And you're opinions hold more weight than the opinions of others.

Private is different than being reclusive.
Doing the September issue of Vogue is iconic, and really an honour and as a popstar it’s good for her brand.
This does not mean she needs to reveal details about her personal life to the magazine. Her life is private despite her brand being public.
See?
