Beyoncé, Solange and Kelly Rowland showed that mother knows best in a montage honoring Ms. Tina Knowles.

On Tuesday night (October 8), Ms. Tina was amongst those awarded in the Glamour 'Women of the Year 2024' roundup, including other celebrity mothers, Donna Kelce (mother to Travis and Jason Kelce), Maggie Baird (mother to Billie Eilish and FINNEAS), and Mandy Teefey (mother to Selena Gomez).

During the awards ceremony, a 3-minute montage was played, featuring the mothers' famous children, including Ms. Tina's biological daughters Beyoncé and Solange, Rowland, whom the Cécred Vice Chairperson considers her third daughter, and her niece, Angela Beyincé.

"Why do I love my mom?" Beyoncé said around the 2:30 mark of the TikTok below. "What's not to love about my mom?"

"My mom inspires me by being a powerhouse," Solange added. "There's power in her hands."

"My Mama T inspires me every day to be just as nurturing as she is, as fun as she is," continued Rowland.

Solange continued by adding that her mother carries "all of the grace, all of the strength, all of the poetry, all of the spirituality."

"She's also protective, and if you try her, Galveston will come out," Beyoncé joked, referring to her mother's hometown.

Also appearing in the clip was Ms. Tina's older sister, Florence Bowers Hilliard, who called Ms. Tina a "strong-willed child" who "didn't take no for an answer."

After Beyincé called her aunt a "true matriarch of our family," Solange added that her mother is "the best grandmother and the epitome of a woman with so much nuance."

"She's gonna always give love," concluded Beyoncé. "It's a gentle, firm love that is always honest and always wants the best for you."

The ladies weren't the only ones to speak on Ms. Tina's behalf last night, as the 70-year-old also took the Times Square EDITION Hotel stage. In the second TikTok below, she said that her daughters have brought her "such incredible joy and pride" in a speech that brought Beyoncé to tears.
