Hot Shots: Beyonce Rocks ‘Oprah’ One Last Time

Published: Wednesday 18th May 2011 by Sam

In news that will surprise few, but delight many, Beyonce made a shock appearance on the final ever episode of ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show’ last night.

Following countless sightings in Chicago, the 29 year old joined fellow Hollywood elites such as Madonna and Halle Berry at the United Center to say farewell to the talk show legend, whose long-running series is coming to an end after a 25 years on air. The singer also treated fans to the first ever televised performance of new single ‘Run The World (Girls)’ – backed by a troop of dancers.

———————

Needless to say, Bouncy waited for the biggest stage of them all to make her live comeback. What’s more, with the visual for ‘Girls’ set to debut on American Idol tonight, followed by an appearance on this Sunday’s Billboard Awards , as well the airing of her Oprah performance next Wednesday, things are finally coming together for the Destiny’s Child diva. And not a minute too soon either. For, given ‘Girls” current iTunes standing, promotion was due weeks ago.

    -giggles-
    Beyonce has Michelle Obama & Oprah sitting in her lap.
    Honored Sunday with an award your fav hasn’t even came close to getting yet and the era hasn’t even officially launched yet.

    Yea She does run the world. Or your fav.

    I knew Beyonce had something up her sleeve. What worries me is that this promo train seems as if it was put together last minute. By now, Girls is nothing but a buzz single that will gear Beyonce for the next, true single. Right now she is obviously playing catch up because the professionalism of her marketing team has slipped compared to other LP eras. It will be interesting to see how this era will manifest with Gaga, Adele, Britney, Rihanna, and Katy out. These artists dominate the singles chart, which Bey has failed to claim so far.

    Yay, Bey !

    This is my Queen , doing Queen’s stuff .

    It’s not about sales anymore, it’s about legacy, kiddies.

    Them other young kitties better sit down and think how to win at least 5 grammys in one night TWO times, be on Oprah short list and have the first Lady on speed dial.

    ‘If you ain’t doing big, b%tch, you ain’t doing nothing !!!

    @Stewie ikr lol…good question.

  16. Tiff May 18, 2011

    Oh lawd Jesus! If a performance is needed to save a song, then that shows how bad the song is! Of course all the stops are gonna be put out for Bey, but check Billboard and Itunes, her song is not what’s hot at all! LMAO!!!
    Notice her billboard award was never given to anyone? They made it up! People have made more sales, more #1’s, yet she gets an award at a time when her song is not even doing well on their charts. c’mon son!

  17. PATTY May 18, 2011

    the song is so low on itunes….It”s like evrybody is tired of her…but this song is terrible i gotta admit even as a bee stan.

  18. HOP-SCOTCH May 18, 2011

    @TIFF

    THE BILLBOrd award has been given to Mariah Carey and eminem

  19. GangsterA May 18, 2011

  20. Beyonslut: Beyonic Knowleshit May 18, 2011

    She slayed her flopness to a higher meter, my god!

    She is the slaying Queen of Flopness, look at her, struggling in Oprah finale, American Idol finale to get attention. Why can’t she just rename this to Beyonic and not copy Adele’s gimmick of numeric album titles! lol!

    Flop-meter is running high on this lessor black trailer trash!

  21. Bruno Kin May 18, 2011

  26. uknowumad May 18, 2011

    @Beyon Why are you on ever Bey post if you hater her so much, GIRL GO JUMP OFF A BUILDING AND QUIT STALKING THE QUEEN

  27. wow May 18, 2011

    IT’S SO FUNNY HOW PEOPLE ARE OBSESSED WITH ITUNES. BEYONCE DOESN’T GIVE 2 SHITS ABOUT ITUNES. SHE IS FOCUSED ON QUALITY NOT QUANTITY.

  28. Hush May 18, 2011

    I see some people are threatened because Beyonce has a more grander “machine” than her grass roots contemporaries. Beyonce has Oprah, she has the Billboard Awards, she has American Idol, that epic music video debuting tonight on network television worldwide, etc., etc.

    Would Oprah invite Britney, Katy Perry or Rihanna, or even a damn Lady Gaga to close out her historic talk show, that will probably garner tremendous ratings on its last episode? Nope.

    The rest of them have only VEVO and iTunes and queeny gay subway kids fans with bad emo hair, skinny jeans and dinky lil iPods. Beyonce is grand. She’s a higher grade than that cheesiness.

    You mad? You should be.

  29. Beyonslut: Beyonic Knowleshit May 18, 2011

    Who is threatened by this has-been? Irrelevant black trailer trash who can’t sell!

    She’s so 2000 and late! B****, novelty music was 3 years ago, Beyonic is still living in the past!

  30. Hush May 18, 2011

    ^ You’re threatened; which is why you have the most posts in this article. Who you trying to convince Boo, everyone else…or yourself? Maybe you think the more you say it, the more likely some cosmic force will make it so.

    LOL@you. Stop skipping meds. You need all 3 of those pills.

    I love how nervous you are about Beyonce taking the shine away from whatever cornball wannabe diva your gay ass is emotionally tied to.

    In short, I love how :::say it with me::: THREATENED you are! 😉

    Chew on it until you choke, Corky.

  31. jarel May 18, 2011

    Im not too keen on the song, but you know she is going to kill it with her performance. And thats just #thetruth.com.

  32. Janet May 18, 2011

    Can Britney sing live? and she even try to dance? NO

    Can Gaga Dance without falling her ass down? NO

    F*** OFF Oprah didnt even mentioned them! LOL Beyoncé is singing in an Oprah’s Show! and you call her a FLOP! lmao People get a life! for real. that just show how stupid you are.

    BEYONCE THE ARTIST OF THIS F****** MILLENIUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
    BEYONCE AND HER AMOUNT OF GRAMMY’S
    BEYONCE AND THIS F****** PERFECT DANCED AND SANG PERFORMANCE!

    Haters can cry! because their favs will never be her level!

  33. Keith May 18, 2011

    Neither OPRAH nor the Grammy’s arethe arbiter of “cool”, let us not forget that….unless you are a middle-aged, middle-class white woman. OPRAH’s endorsement is a BUSINESS move, nothing else….
    I like the song but Beyonce has got to come harder in performance to be groundbreaking. Madonna has done that, Janet has done that, Britney has done that. Not mad at her and still looking forward to her record because GaGa and Britney’s music is garbage now.

    Perhaps she put something together to fulfill the obligation but not overshadow the video….I will be watching.

  34. DION_ISH May 18, 2011

    YESSSSSSSSSSSS The MuthaFUKIN Queen MADONNA Will be there!!

    *BOW* CAN NOT WAIT ….Everybody else, BYE! Dont Care…..

  35. lissa May 19, 2011

    They hate Bey but they watch her every move! And what else hater!
