SHE REALLY WAS BORN TO DO THIS

Some of her best performances were while she was pregnant with Blue. This set was phenomenal

[@hypintesti]

Was she preggo?

[@idkbrosstudios8446]

rhagar mills barely, but she was. Blue was a itty bitty bean, in not even sure if Bey knew she was preggo back then.

@AriQueen I am an Arianator, to be honest the reason why our fandom deemed as toxic is because of these kind of comments.

[@tagaisla1993]

@AriQueen I'm also a fan of Ariana, just an honest opinion, Beyonce is on a very different level. She's a queen.

[@jtarantula3390]

Yawn 🥱

[@Bellatrixstrange09]

The fact that this performance of Crazy in Love is MILES different from the Homecoming performance says a lot about Beyoncé. How has she been singing the same song for almost 20 years and changes it up each era? The TALENT this woman has!! Let me go watch the Homecoming performance, chile.

[@kathygaskins7132]

I totally agree. I'm still flippinover the Homecoming performance and still trippin off that 'Already' song and vid. Yesss...

[@Hello-qv2fx]

So true. But this performance was somewhat similar to I am... World Tour performance of this song

[@emmaivan8618]

@@Hello-qv2fx nope, I am world tour had déjà vu as intro and male dancers breakdance plus Jay z as guest. The only similarity is the trumpet 🎺 part played by the female band

Beyoncé is the best. Her energy , her voice and her moves

[@luke_3_113]

She's a great performer, but what I love about her Glastonbury set is how much SHE is enjoying the whole experience. It's a thing of beauty, for an artist who has done so much, it's something magnificent and different.

[@SethThlou]

There will never be another performer like her. Even michael jackson doesn't even get close. Wendy Williams even said so herself

[@MoisesJFS]

For me: it's the ad libs in the beginning, the way she smoothly moves her arms, the way she pauses for a second on top of the stairs and stare at the crowd, the way she struts with confidence downstairs in the rhythm while not missing a single beat...she's a legendary performer!

[@marlenna215]

She has only gotten better. After 25 yrs that is unheard of. She is the best entertainer of all time. Period

@Carolyn Morten why do you always have to compare artists ??? Michael is Michael, Beyoncé is Beyoncé. They both are iconic why do people have to put them in competition ??! like what’s the point ? They’re both incredibly talented entertainers there’s nothing else to say

[@loris6572]

@Carolyn Morten but Beyoncé doesnt use autotune tho !! You should get into the things she does ! Her music, her tours, you’ll probably love it since you seem to love Michael Jackson !! :)

Also ignorancy

The thing that most amazes me about all of this is that, in the midst of it, Beyonce manages to stay sane. How anyone deals with that level of adoration without completely losing the plot is beyond me.

Full respect to Beyonce who can do such notoriously difficult choreography while belting out high notes LIVE at Whitney Houston's level and not resort to lip-synching!

[@Pdirac9]

What you don't get from this is that this was less than a 1/3 of the way into her set. The confidence to drop this that early and still totally slay the rest of the set was immense. I remember sitting with my mates and some people were trying to pitch going to Queens of the Stone age. Glad we managed to talk some sense into them. She was phenomenal.
