She came. She slayed. She conquered. Our hearts, that is.
Yes, there were many other celebs performing, speaking and presenting at the Global Citizen Festival, but to be honest, Beyoncé owned the day. She and husband Jay-Z were the most-anticipated performers of the night, a fact reflected in the length of their performance, the many outfit changes, the stage design and, of course, how loud people screamed.
Bey didn't dance as much as she typically would have during a concert performance, but what she lacked in the moves, she more than made up for with her styling and vocals. She let her outfits speak for her, and what they said was: "This is all about Africa."
Her proud mother, Tina Lawson, took to Instagram to share some of the unknown facts about her daughter's outfit choices, which proved that each one had been carefully considered.
While fans were excited to see her performance, this wasn't the first time Queen B has performed in South Africa. Before she became Mrs Carter, she performed at the first 46664 concert in Cape Town in November 2003.
Her love affair with African-inspired fashion began there and has continued for 15 years.
