Beyoncé performed for throngs of screaming fans Saturday night at Coachella after a year’s wait.
The Queen was slated to headline last year’s festival, but had to cancel under doctor’s orders because she was pregnant with twins at the time. Lady Gaga stepped in as Beyoncé’s replacement.
She and her husband, rapper Jay-Z, welcomed Rumi and Sir Carter last June.
Beyoncé’s fans, known as the “BeyHive,” have waited to see her perform since last year’s Grammy Awards.
Hours before Saturday’s performance, the singer posted on facebook about her excitement, said she can’t wait to see her fans.
“Y’all ready Coachella?,” she asked the crowd as she opened her set, becoming the first woman of color to headline the music festival in Indio, California.
She opened her long-anticipated performance with a marching band version of her hit “Crazy in Love,” and later crooned a rendition of “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” also known as the black national anthem.
One of our favorite moments from her performance was her choreography with her sister, Solange

Here are some feedbacks from her performance.
Beyoncé gave us a pep rally and a dance recital and a second line and a revival and a homecoming and a block party and an opera and a movie and a play.

Watching Beyonce live always challenges me. You can see all the work put in. They spare no expense. They know to be incredible, talent isn't enough. Skill isn't enough. Passion and hardwork….all these have to come together.
