Beyonce Knowles: Taking Musical Break

Always busy on the music scene, Beyonce Knowles wants to take a six-month break.

The “Sweet Dreams” singer is ready to focus more on her personal life, including husband Jay-Z and five-year old nephew Daniel.

“It’s definitely time to take a break, to recharge my batteries,” she said. “I’d like to take about six months and not go into the studio. I need to just live life, to be inspired by things again.”

So what type of things will the 28 year-old music star be doing? “I’m going to do random things. I want to go to restaurants, maybe take a class and see some movies and Broadway shows. I’ll spend more time with Daniel. He’s a wonderful kid, amazing, so smart. And I spoil him, so it’s a lot of work. He’s a 24-hour job.”

But it won’t be an easy break for Knowles. “It will be the hardest thing in the world for me to make myself not do an album and shoot a video and turn it in and say, ‘I’m ready!’ I already have all these melodies and ideas in my head,” she said. “I have to tell myself, ‘Sit down! Sit down!’ “
