We sat glued to our seats last night as we watched Beyonce perform her new single, “Who Runs The World?” and accepted Billboard’s Millennium Award. In a recent interview, Beyonce stated, “you can’t define me.” she is absolutely correct. Her performance was not only epic, but she is now compared to another epic performer, Michael Jackson.
What struck me along with many of you is the gracious acceptance speech after her mother, Tina Knowles presented her with the award. Not only did she thank her mother phenomenal woman but also for her guidance. She thanked her father for his business savvy in guiding her career. She thanked Kelly and Michelle and also Letoya and Farrah, the original members of Destiny’s Child. You just can cant get any classier than that. The “POW” moment came when she thanked her best friend and stated, “I love me some Jay-Z.”
Beyonce made a lot of women proud last night with the new women’s anthem, an extraordinary performance, and her gracious attitude. We are all creating extraordinary lives everyday. Beyonce just reminded us that yes, we are powerful, we are beautiful, we are epic and we run the world!
