If Beyoncé is your queen, then you need to hear from Queen Bey’s mother! Tina shares how she empowered Beyoncé and Solange to find their unique voices and why she hopes they’ll release a song together. She tells Vivica what she really thought of Beyoncé’s graduation speech and the one thing she needs to “get off her chest” to her daughter’s critics. Tina opens up about her passions from providing free COVID19 testing to advocating for racial and social justice to mentoring young women, her “angels”. Find out how she’s been giving back from feeding the homeless to building youth centers to funding transitional housing for decades.
