Students at New York City’s School of Visual Arts were treated to an appearance by the one, the only Beyoncé this weekend during a screening of Bey’s 17 videos for Beyoncé (see the full video below).

Though Beyoncé only stuck around for a little over 10 minutes, she offered some up some interesting tidbits on the making of her self-titled smash.

Apparently she was “terrified” before the album’s secret release, but obviously she had nothing to fear. Beyoncé has already achieved platinum status, reaching the 1 million mark less than a week after the album’s released.

Beyoncé also revealed that in an effort to keep the songs on the album secret, she wore earbuds during the video shoots so no one else could hear them. How sneaky!

If you still don’t own a copy of Beyoncé  for whatever reason, you can check out the full videos for “Drunk In Love” and “XO” on her YouTube channel!

If you could ask Beyoncé a question what would it be? Let us know in the comments below!
