Beyoncé to direct doccie about herself

Los Angeles - Pop superstar Beyoncé is stepping behind the camera to direct a behind-the-scenes documentary about her personal and professional life, US cable channel HBO said on Monday.

The currently untitled film will debut on 16 February and show the Grammy-winning singer's life in the recording studio, readying for live performances and running her own TV and music production company.

"Everybody knows Beyoncé's music, but few know Beyoncé the person," HBO Programming President Michael Lombardo said in a statement. "Along with electrifying footage of Beyoncé on stage, this unique special looks beyond the glamour to reveal a vibrant, vulnerable, unforgettable woman."

The documentary will also feature moments in the Crazy in Love singer's family life and first-person footage Beyoncé captured on her laptop.

Beyoncé, 31, who is married to hip hop artist and mogul Jay-Z, will headline the Super Bowl halftime show in New Orleans on 3 February.
