Well, that was today outside NFL headquarters in New York City.

Surprisingly, the organizers of the event didn’t show up (or were perhaps too cowardly to identify themselves.)

Instead scores of Queen Bey supporters turned up and made their voices heard.

Gwen Stefani is renown for taking risks, hence it was fitting that she embraced her daring nature during the 2016 Grammy Awards tonight.

No Doubt‘s front-woman teamed with Target to shoot a live music video for new single ‘Make Me Like You’ – which aired real-time between a commercial break.

Despite all the variables that could have gone awry, Stefani pulled it off without a hitch, proving that – after 20 + years in the business, she can still push the envelope in innovative ways.

It’s a point which in itself is a great coup for the singer ahead of the release of her third solo album ‘This Is What The Truth Feels Like’ (due March 18th via Interscope).
