Beyonce Knowles has signed three aspiring singers to her Parkwood Entertainment company. According to the New York Post, the diva offered sisters Chloe and Halle Bailey, 17 and 15 years old respectively, a $1 million recording deal after her manager found their viral cover of "Pretty Hurts" on YouTube.

The 33-year-old songbird has requested approval of the deals from a Manhattan judge because the girls are minors. The Bailey sisters' contract covers up to six albums over five years, with Beyonce taking 15 percent of their gross earnings.

"We cannot think of a better person to help guide the girls," the girls' father Douglas said in court documents, adding that his daughters "worship" the former Destiny's Child member.
