Beyonce's father, Matthew Knowles has fueled conspiracy theories surrounding his daughter's actual age after he told 'The Breakfast Club' that she was the 'exact same age' as fellow pop star, Pink, who is two years older than Bey! Pink was born September 1979 while Beyonce claims she was born September 1981.
Mathew, who used to manage Beyonce and her former band Destiny's Child, also referred to his 34-year-old daughter as being the same age as R&B singer Usher, who was born in October 1978.

Actress Gabrielle Union, who turns 43 next week said in 2008 that she knew Beyonce when they were teenagers. The two women co-starred alongside each other in the 2008 film 'Cadillac Records'.
"Beyonce and I have been friends since we were teenagers. We go to the same hairstylist now and you know how those bonds are! B is such a polite, nurturing person and a joy to work with. It’s easy to work with her because she is a good friend of mine," Unionsaid at the time.
Former 'Good Morning America' host Bianna Golodryga, 37, also confirmed several years ago she went to high school with Beyonce in their native Texas, which some critics took as supposed 'evidence' Beyonce was older.
Mathew's relationship hasn't been as close with his daughter since she dropped him as her manager back in 2011. However, he insists he remains a good personal relationship with his daughter and grandchild Blue Ivy.

He enthused: 'I spent the day with Blue Ivy and Beyoncé a couple of months ago. And actually hope to see them next week or the week after and spend another day doing Play-Doh with Blue Ivy.'
So, exactly how old is Beyonce? 34? 37? 38?
