Is power a corrupting force? Or can it be wielded responsibly? The Queen Bey herself, Beyoncé's ascent to the throne of pop has generated tens of millions of fans. But Beyoncé fans aren't just fans. They're followers, zealots, worshipping the ground their Queen walks across. Known as the Beyhive, these fans view Beyoncé as their deity often posing the rhetorical question; "WWBD: what would Beyoncé do?" A reputation for violently swarming any voice that utters against Beyoncé, the Beyhive's "killer bees" raise serious concerns about the responsibilities of superstardom. The question: how did a little girl from Houston become the Queen of a global empire?
