Beyoncé at the Stade de France, the unbeatable

Beyoncé more than lived up to the expectations of the 70,000 lucky people who got their sesame. Twerk, fireworks, sequins and grandiose staging, Queen B reigned over the Stade de France on Friday evening. In front of an audience from France, Europe and even the United States, the 41-year-old singer delivered a performance of more than 2.5 hours as part of her Renaissance World Tour. A diva show, in which the star did not invite anyone on stage, not even her husband Jay-Z, who however was walking in the pit. Only her daughter Blue Ivy, barely 11 years old, created the surprise by going on stage to dance on the title My Power.

After a very sober entry on Dangerously in Love, the star paid tribute to Tina Turner, who died two days earlier. “I would like to honor him. Without her, I wouldn't be on this stage," she said. Absolute idol of Beyoncé, "the Tigress" had offered her in 2008, during the Grammy Awards, a memorable duet on the title Proud Mary.

Successively queen of the bees, flying on a diamond horse above the crowd, television news presenter, mermaid emerging from her shell or even science fiction goddess, Beyoncé has brilliantly chained forty titles without taking a breath and without play- back.

About twenty dancers of all sizes and from all origins accompanied her in precise choreographies. Among them, the Twins -Larry and Laurent- French twins from Sarcelles, discovered on the show La France a un Incroyable Talent, the star's favorites on his tours.

The seven chapters of her show all began with a video on a -really-giant screen, the time for the diva to change outfits, signed Paco Rabanne, Balmain, Mugler or Courrèges. Special mention for the golden jumpsuit imagined by Loewe and its artistic director -Jonathan Anderson - with surreal hands.

In the public, many of his friends, and not the least, made the trip to Saint-Denis. Among them, Jean-Paul Gaultier had made his way to the stands, Pharrell Williams, Lizzo, Lenny Kravitz, The Weeknd, Selena Gomez, Megan Thee Stallion, Kylie and Kris Jenner, Natalie Portman, more privileged, were in the VIP pit, even on a platform stuck to the stage, like the French actress Lyna Khoudry.

The show, rehearsed for weeks in the greatest secrecy in Paris, should rise to the top of those who bring in the most money. According to Forbes, between $275 million and $2.4 billion. On February 7, the day of the general sale of the Parisian and Marseille dates, the 115,000 tickets were snapped up in 46 minutes. Beyoncé continues with five dates in London and will be at the Stade Vélodrome on June 11. His 57-date world tour will conclude on September 27 in the United States. Definitely Queen B runs the world.
