Beyonce was joined by her old Destiny’s Child group mates Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland for the Super Bowl XLVII halftime show in a move that, for many gay men, was undoubtedly the highlight of the evening.
Beyonce sang “Love On Top,” “Crazy in Love,” “End of Time” and “Baby Boy” alone, then Williams and Rowland joined her for “Bootylicious,” “Independent Women” and the Beyonce solo hit “Single Ladies.” Beyonce closed her set with “Halo.”
