Beyonce did not come to play, she came to slay!

Queen Bey made a rare appearance tonight at JAY-Z‘s TIDALxBrooklyn fundraiser at the Barclays Center in New York City.

Serving the essence of classic Hollywood glamour, the 36-year-old turned heads and sent cameras into a flutter.

Peep more of Mrs Carter after the jump…
