Beyonce's '60 Minutes' videos featured an interesting side of the songstress -- with '60 Minutes' showcasing Beyonce backstage, praying before her shows, and showing never-before-seen clips of Jay-Z and Beyonce hugging.

Featuring clips of a young, adolescent Beyonce shaking her hips, 60 Minutes discovered that the "type A" entertainer was far from a wild teenager.

"We weren't perfect," she admitted about her teen years, but Steve Kroft reported than many of Beyonce's tour bus hours were spent reading the Bible.

The most curious thing this Christian TV Examiner wonders is how Beyonce's booty-shaking and revealing attire can be reconciled with the same image of the woman '60 Minutes' showed praying to the Lord before her shows.

And yet, Beyonce's relatable lyrics touch the hearts of folks all across plenty of countries -- people who find their own pain and joy and hubris in her songs.

The last segment featured on 60 Minutes, Beyonce's interview unveiled how the former Destiny's Child member keeps a photo of an Oscar on a corner in front of her treadmill, plus featured insider clips from Beyonce's own film team of the performer falling on her 5-inch heels while practicing.

While she refused to "same my name" in terms of husband Jay-Z, Beyonce admitted that she puts pressure on herself to try and be the best -- and that she's always been driven for as long as she can remember.
