The cause of the fire is still under investigation. Beyoncé’s family bought the home in 1982. She lived in the home until she was five years old, but appears to hold some attachment to the place, stopping by the home to take photos of it while touring Houston in her recent Renaissance Tour.Beyoncé has also discussed her experience as a young girl growing up in Houston, appearing to have fond memories of the place. “Growing up in Houston was fun,” said Beyonce in an interview with Visit Houston. “We always had a huge backyard to play in.

My mom allowed my friends to come over all the time; it was like a continuous slumber party at our house.” “When I describe Houston to friends who have never been here, I first have to tell them, no, it’s not like the country films you see on TV!
