Beyonce to Direct her own Documentary!

Beyonce stans, get ready to explode! King Bey is set to make her directorial debut with a new documentary for the silver screen.

The "Love On Top" singer has hooked up with the reps at ICM and begun shopping a documentary to the major Hollywood studios. LA Times reports:

The movie is as a mix of music and personal study, blending concert footage with confessional interview. Knowles not only stars in the project but is directing it, and will also serve as a producer. About 20 minutes of footage has been shown to distributors.

This could be an epic video for Beyonce fans, considering all that's been going on in Bey's life for the past 18 months. She announced her pregnancy, had a baby, dropped a number one album and came back with four sold out shows at Revel in Atlantic City.

If the new documentary movie does hit screens, Beyonce will join the likes of Justin Bieber and Katy Perry as stars with their own full-length docs in theaters.

The only thing left to ask is, are you excited?!
