A fan pointed out that Bey inadvertently included her songs that have “those traditionally Arabic scales" in them like "Beautiful Liar" and "Drunk In Love."

We're not surprised.

Furthermore, one of the audience members stated that Bey was recovering from foot surgery prior to her performance.

Cultural critic and author Gerrick Kennedy tweeted, “BEYLANTIS was quite the unexpected show. That voice is just gets better and better. Mama was doing her good singing. Mind-blowing to see her and Blue Ivy perform together. Even more in awe to hear she did this after foot surgery. It’s unclear what injury led Bey to the operating table, but it’s good to know she’s doing better.”

After the concert, Bey’s publicist sent out footage from her performance with a promise of “more to come.”

Maybe they’re hinting at RENAISSANCE visuals? Hopefully so!

As for guests who attended the grand opening show:

 

 

Jay-Z was there to watch his wife and daughter slay the stage. He snapped it up with music exec Steve Stoute, Roc Nation’s chief executive officer Jay Brown, and more.

”Best Man: Final Chapters” star Nia Long jetted overseas to watch the Queen perform live.

TV host Terrence J linked up with Nia in Dubai during the festivities:

Also…

Bey’s protégés Chloe and Halle Bailey were there support, as well as Halle’s boyfriend, DDG, and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever star Letitia Wright.

 

 

Sabrina Dhowre Elba, wife of British actor Idris Elba, stepped out for the concert and looked bomb AF while doing so.

 

Also, Black Panther star Winston Duke was also in the mix:

 

Fab times!
