It was in this house that the star lived from birth until she was five years old.

Beyoncé’s childhood home on Rosedale Street in Texas caught fire on Christmas Day. This tragic news was reported by the Daily Mail.

The cause of the fire has not yet been established. What is known is that at that moment there was a family there who lives there now. Wearing only their pajamas, they had to escape and run outside. According to KTRK TV channel, the two-story house began to burn at two o’clock in the morning. The greatest damage to property occurred on the second floor, which was on fire before firefighters arrived.

Interestingly, the star’s family moved several decades ago. Since then, the property has had many owners. The current residents are a couple with two small children.

By the way, even though Beyoncé lived in the house only for the first five years of her life, excursions were constantly taken to it. Kate Rosen, director of Houston History Tours, noted that the site was very popular among her supporters. This is where people most often asked to stay during tourist excursions.

“The people who go on these tours are fans of Beyoncé. Visiting the house where she was born is like going to Bethlehem, the birthplace of their leader. Almost 100% of people come out to take pictures and selfies here,” she said.

Beyoncé herself did not publicly react to the incident. By the way, now the performer lives with her husband and children in the most expensive estate in California overlooking the ocean.

Let us remind you that the singer recently released a surprise track that surprised fans.
