The Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It) singer – who wed Jay-Z earlier this year – admits it is taking time for her to get used to her new relationship status.

She said: “This is a new chapter for me. I’m terrified, but excited. It’s like I’m a new woman!”

The 27-year-old beauty also revealed Jay-Z has inspired a lot of songs on her new record I Am…, adding: “I am happy right now and this album has a lot of love songs that talk about my emotions – me naked with my heart exposed.”

Beyonce also spoke about her role as blues singer Etta James in upcoming film Cadillac Records, a role for which she was required to gain 15lbs.

She told America’s InStyle: “It was way easier – and tastier – than having to lose so much weight for Dreamgirls. I also studied Etta’s mannerisms and tried to make them my own. My performance, my posture – everything was so different from who I am. It was difficult.”
