Beyoncé recalls she ‘couldn’t afford calling cards’ to contact husband
Beyoncé recalls she ‘couldn’t afford calling cards’ to contact husband Jay-Z when they first began dating as she opens up about privacy and family.
The singer, 43, told how she was raised in a very different world than her own kids.
‘We live in a world of access. We have access to so much information – some facts, and some complete b******t disguised as truth. Our children can FaceTime and see their friends at any given moment,’ she told the October edition of GQ.
But she was quick to compare it to the old days, adding: ‘My husband and I? We used calling cards and Skype when we were falling in love.
‘I couldn’t afford the international hotel bills, so I literally would get international calling cards to call him. Just recently, I heard an AI song that sounded so much like me it scared me. It’s impossible to truly know what’s real and what’s not.’
Beyoncé revealed she ‘couldn’t afford calling cards’ in her early days dating her husband Jay-Z, as she lifted the lid on navigating the progress of new technologies, privacy, and parenthood

Therefore the music icon has ‘worked extremely hard’ to ensure her family’s lives are not too effected by the spotlight.
‘It’s very easy for celebrities to turn our lives into performance art. I have made an extreme effort to stay true to my boundaries and protect myself and my family.
‘No amount of money is worth my peace,’ she added.
