Meet The Guy Beyonce Dated For 10 Years Before Jay Z

In an exclusive interview with The Mail on Sunday,Beyonce’s first love,Lyndall Locke reveals the ‘flawless’ singer life before and during stardom. He said Beyonce always knew she would become a star and when he asked her of Jay Z,she said her wasn’t her type,lol. Read below;

‘She was focused and knew what she wanted,’ he says. ‘She’d started singing when she was five and her parents supported her. There was a Beyoncé train on the fast track to fame and you were either on it or off it. Some people fell off the train and others jumped.’
Mathew ‘Big Mac’ Knowles was the mastermind of ‘Project Beyoncé’, as it was known in the family. ‘Let me tell you, there was no messing with Big Mac. He gave me the third degree about who I was and what my intentions were,’ says Lyndall. ‘He gave me the talk about “not messing anything up.” ’ Lyndall says he understood this to mean not to get Beyoncé pregnant.
 ‘We shared our first kiss at a Brian McKnight concert when Bey was 13. She was a little southern belle. She was an awesome kisser. We would hang out and do normal boyfriend-girlfriend things, although I was never allowed to stay over.’
‘Because Daddy told me it would increase my breath control and lung capacity,’ she replied. ‘I need to be able to perform onstage for hours when I become a star.’
We hung out and did the normal things kids do: we watched videos, went to the movies, went out for chicken. We were two kids in love for the first time.’
‘Beyoncé came to my high-school prom with me. It was a great evening. She laughed and danced and told me, “Lyndall, it’s so great to be normal, to be a kid.” ’
‘Every penny went into Beyoncé’s career,’ Lyndall explained. Undeterred, Beyoncé was able to ‘compartmentalise’ her life. ‘She kept her personal life separate from her career. We talked on the phone for hours, but I was never part of her music. I was an upbeat, positive kid. I made Beyoncé laugh. When she was with me it was downtime.’
‘I’ve never been a liar. I told her the truth which is that I lost my virginity to a girl from church. She cried and hung up on me.’ The pair split but reconciled. Lyndall believes it was because the Knowles family knew ‘I wasn’t after anything from them’.
‘Tina was a glamorous lady who ran a house, worked in her hair salon and worked promoting Beyoncé as well as being a fantastic mother.’ Even when Tina’s husband cheated ‘she stayed strong and kept the family together’.
‘Beyoncé told me she would never smoke or drink because that would hurt her voice. She was a control freak.’
‘She was promoting Destiny Child’s second album and I was back home smoking weed. I didn’t want that to somehow reflect badly on her. She was all about image and career, while I was directionless and having fun. Once they started to hit big it was obvious she was changing,’ he explains. ‘She became aloof. I told her she was becoming a whole new kind of person and she looked at me and said, “I am.”
‘I told her, “I wish we could have a normal life” and she said, “I don’t want a normal life. I’ve been waiting for this since I was a kid.” ’
‘I jabbered on to Janet, I was nervous’, he explains. ‘Janet said, “You remind me of one of my nephews” and I said, “Well, your nephew must be pretty awesome!”
‘Beyoncé huddled with her cousin Angie, and Angie came over and escorted me out. That hurt. It cut deep. I was 20, I was excited to meet Janet Jackson, but they had an image to protect. It was business for them. I wasn’t cool.’
‘Beyoncé was very sweet. Whatever state she was in, she would send Lyndall a ticket. But I wanted to put an end to it. Lyndall needed to make a life for himself and not just be waiting around ready for when she snapped her fingers.’

On Jay Z

‘She said, “He’s not even my type,” but we agreed to take a break. That was it.’
‘No. She was always going to ride that Beyoncé train to the very top. That’s who she is. She wanted it so bad. She knew her destiny.’
