As Beyonce gears up for an electrifying return to the stage next week, her Revel showcase is shaping up to be a special night for Def Jam‘s new breakout star Luke James (pictured above).
Find out why after the jump…
Fresh from performing in front of Michelle Obama (and earning a standing ovation in the process), James has been hand-picked by the ‘Single Ladies’ singer to open her quad of comeback concerts (which kick off May 25th).
Now, of course, we could go on and on about how great Luke is. However, how about we show you…
Your thoughts?

Beyonce and Pink are the only female artists that get me excited for their live performances. These bitches need to yank their damn titties away from their babies and hit the stage more regularly
