If you live in some remote part of the world where television and the Internet do not exist, chances are that you missed Beyoncé tackle yesterday's halftime show during Super Bowl 47 on Feb. 3 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.

For those of us who are not football fanatics, the halftime slot serves as our main event on the big game day. A long list of who's who in the pop world have held our attention steadfast during the coveted slot--from Bruce Springsteen and Prince in recent years to Paul McCartney and the late Michael Jackson who arguably raised the bar on just how much of a "wow factor" the halftime show could potentially have. Beyoncé channeled the King of Pop yesterday during her electric ten-plus minute long medley of songs that also incorporated pyrotechnics, clever video imaging and complex choreography that the pop star has become known for today.

Multi-award winning performer Beyoncé is certainly no stranger to over the top performances and the halftime show, which garnered a record-breaking 111.3 million viewers during last year's Super Bowl, seemed like the perfect stage for Beyoncé's elaborate concert last night. It was also a sure fire way to dispel any doubts in her ability to perform live, chiefly caused by her now confirmed lip-syncing of the national anthem during President Obama's second inauguration.

Opening with an a cappella version of "Love on Top," Beyoncé soon moved onto her most popular hits like "Crazy in Love" and "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)," where she was reunited with her former Destiny's Child bandmates Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams.
