Beyoncé has found three dream girls to mold into
superstars.
The 33-year-old signed sister-act duo Chloe Bailey, 17,
and Halle Bailey, 15, and Sophie Beem, 14, to her
management company Parkwood Entertainment for five-
year contracts totaling $1.5million, reports NY Post.
The Bailey sisters were discovered on YouTube and Sophie
was a finalist on The X Factor.
The Grammy winner requested approval of the deals from a
Manhattan judge because the girls are minors, the tabloid
added.
Single Ladies hitmaker Beyonce inked a $1 million contract
with Chloe and Halle 'for up to six albums' through the

Chloe and Halle are already YouTube success stories with

song Pretty Hurts.
In court documents, their father Douglas stated that his
girls 'worship' the singer, adding, they 'have been singing,
dancing and acting together since they were toddlers.'
'We cannot think of a better person to help guide the
girls.'
Meanwhile Sophie's impressive pipes also won over Demi
Lovato, LA Reid, Britney Spears and Simon Cowell when
she competed on the American version of The X Factor in
2012.
Simon commented at the time: 'There are some people who
are born to do this, and you are one of them.'
Still, she did not advance further than the top 40 finalists.
However, Beyonce's Parkwood Music management group
sees potential.
According to terms of Sophie's contract, the rock/folk
singer has a $560,000 deal with a recording option.
The management company stated in court papers that the
teen is not 'ready to begin recording music,' adding,
'Parkwood Music believes that Sophie’s music will be best
showcased with a band,
