Beyonce Reveals Reason She Was Born, ‘Corny’ Songs, Jay-Z’s Diaper Duty

Beyonce welcomed Anderson Cooper into her world as a mother, humanitarian and superstar, while simultaneously helping him kick off the new season of his talk show "Anderson Live" Monday (Sept. 10).

Cooper scored an interview with the 31-year-old 4 creator at the United Nations General Assembly Hall last month, where Bey filmed her lauded "I Was Here" video.

During their talk, the former Destiny's Child member was candid when asked about her bond with 8-month-old daughter Blue Ivy.

"It just gives you purpose and all of the things my self-esteem was associated with, it's all completely different," she said. "I realized why I was born and more than anything, all of the things I want to pass on to my child. The best way of doing that is not by preaching or telling her, but showing her by example, which is one of the reasons I'm here."
