Beyonce has revealed her biggest inspiration in a new video interview as part of the Chime for Change campaign.

The singer, who is the co-founder and artistic director of the Gucci founded girls' and women's empowerment initiative, talks female solidarity in the clip and says that her mother, Tina Knowles, inspires her the most because she sees 'the beauty in every human being'.

She says of her mum: 'My mother always sees the beauty in every human being. I think her gift is understanding and helping people get to their best selves, her gift is finding the best qualities in every human being.'
