Beyoncé Knowles-Carter has secured her spot among the influential women shaping the world, landing at No. 36 on Forbes' prestigious World's 100 Most Powerful Women list. Forbes considered key metrics like money, media presence, impact, and spheres of influence to compile the 2023 Power List, recognizing women who've made significant contributions globally.
This recognition follows the triumph of Beyoncé's concert documentary, “Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé.” The movie first released in North America, grossing $11.5 million the first night and $21 million over the entire weekend. It broke a two-decade record by grossing over $20 million on its opening weekend after Thanksgiving, as reported by AMC.

The film's impressive success is just one of many milestones marking a massive year for Queen Bey. Her achievements are evident that Beyoncé continues to dominate and redefine success in the world of entertainment.
