Beyonce appears on the cover of Ebony‘s April 2009 issue looking particularly fierce.   In the cover article, she spills a bit about life with husband Jay-Z, and her youthful vision of retiring at age 21.

On what drives her hubby crazy:

“I’m a little messy. Oh, yeah. Whenever I’m out in public, I have to be put together. When I get home, I rebel against it and I don’t want to take care of anything. I drop it. I’m relaxed. I don’t have any shoes on. No makeup. My shoes are left at the door. My purse is in the kitchen. I think that is the most difficult thing for him. He’s very, very organized.”

On her statement to Ebony some years ago that she would retire at age 21:

“That sounded completely ambitious and ridiculous” back then, she says now, adding that she actually could have quit at that young age. But she says, “I’ve worked so hard on my craft, and I will never stop. I will never retire. I love it way too much.”

The cover is really stunning in print – check it out on newsstands now (I just saw it today!).
