Beyonce Knowles has planned for a perfect break for the holiday season which is set to kick it off at the end of December till the first week of the New Year.
“I”m taking the whole month off – the end of December and the first week of January. I wanna travel, I wanna go to the South of France,” Contactmusic quoted Beyonce, as saying.
The former Destiny’s Child singer means to be completely away from her work during the holiday.
“It’s the only time I can really relax, because then I have no excuse; I’m stuck and I have to take care of myself and eat good food… I can’t escape,” Beyonce said.
The pop diva spent her Christmas with her family and was forced to cook for Christmas dinner but she was worried her food would be inedible.
She said, “One thing I am doing for the first time is cooking. But I’m the worst! I’ve been working since I was 13. I’ve been touring. I haven’t had the time to be at home and learn the simple things.”
Beyonce Knowles, who married her husband Jay-Z in April, said she was blamed by her mother because she cannot cook.
“My mother’s like, ‘You’re 27 years old. This is a shame. You have to learn how to cook.’ So this year it’s going to be my first time. Hopefully, my family will still be well and alive after they eat what I cooked!”
Another thing the Irreplaceable himaker never does on Christmas is to sing because she wants to relax after working for an entire year.
“Singing is the last thing I want to do. I just want to relax. Usually, I want to be spoiled. I can have my socks on and watch TV. But this time, I’m going to try to pitch in and make more than ice water – what I am very good at!, Inquirer.net quoted her as saying.
