In certain circles, there was no Super Bowl last night — just a big Beyonce concert that happened to be interrupted by a little football game.
The 31-year-old diva’s halftime show, complete with brief Destiny’s Child reunion, probably shuts out Madonna, Prince and the Rolling Stones for most-anticipated intermission in recent memory. And despite her recent lip-syncing mini-scandal, Bey delivered: “Beyonce is the closes thing to perfect big ups to jay-z lol,” tweeted Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant, one of dozens of celebrities who gushed about the show.
What a Performance, Tip of the hat to Mrs. Beyonce

Beyoncé radiates about 500 Watts, is my guess. But to be certain, I’d have to run a special calculation just for her.

And given Beyonce’s upcoming world tour, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Golden Tate might have underestimated when he tweeted:
Beyonce might be trending for the next 2 weeks .
