Beyonce performing at the Roseland Ballroom

Beyonce Knowles turned out New York’s Roseland Ballroom for the first of her four-night residency. She murdered it. Singing, dancing, emoting, thanking, lifecoaching, storytelling, juking, jazz-handing, orbit gum smiling, and of course, lots of feminine wiling and hip-notizing.
But the best example of Beyonce’s venus voodoo power came during her performance of “1+1.” Kneeling on the hood of a white piano, sweat glistening, in her gold-sequined teddy and shiny Ice Capades pantyhose….King Bey belted out the ballad while quad-pumping to the beat.
