Beyonce shut down all haters today when she decided to sing "The Star-Spangled Banner” without the help of a backing track or band.
The multi-platinum artist was at the news conference for her upcoming Super Bowl halftime show in New Orleans on Sunday when she gave the flawless impromptu performance.
The singer had received criticism from many in the media after it was discovered she lip-synced the national anthem at President Obama's inauguration on Monday January 21.
After today's a cappella performance the singer fielded questions from media members that were in attendance and revealed her decision to lip-sync.
"I am a perfectionist ... I did not have time to rehearse with the orchestra [at the Inauguration]. It was a live television show and a very important moment for me," she said. "Due to the weather, due to the delay, due to no proper sound check, I did not feel comfortable taking the risk … so I decided to sing along with my pre-recorded track, which is very common in the music industry. And I’m very proud of my performance."
Watch Beyonce's performance from earlier today and her explanation regarding the inauguration.
BTW, Ashlee Simpson was sh*tted on for doing it on SNL, and people made a big deal about Britney Spears doing it in concerts last year. And guess what? They're white b*tches. So next time, think before you speak when you try to race bait in a topic, f*ckin retard.
^This is why people who overuse words like "hatin/hater, swag" should have their f*ckin throats ripped out and their fingers smashed with a hammer. So they can't say or type those OVERF*CKINUSED words ever again. Shut the f*ck up, all people did was point out something this b*tch did. Stop f*ckin livin through people you will never be, and stop d*ck riding them. They don't give a f*ck about you, and just because people say something bad about them doesn't mean they're "hatin".

we all know that she can sing but that wasn't the point. you choke and fool a lot of people at the inauguration when there were a lot of important people there like president obama... and now you wanna redeem yourself to the hippies at some news conference that nobody really watch. lol
"The word "sambo" came into the English language from the Latin American Spanish word zambo[citation needed], which in turn may have come from one of three African language sources. Webster's (Third International Dictionary) holds that…"
