DID I DIE AND GO TO HEAVEN? Mariah Beyonce Vanessa Williams in the same ROOM????????????????????? wow.

loved mariah mary and beyonce

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL AMAZING DAY! I LOVE OUR FIRST FAMILY!

they did that ish. i luv everything about it. almost me made me cry.lol

I loved it the song was perfect and there is nothing more to say.

man, i cried all day yesterday everytime i heard obama speak. i cried at this moment. i think beyonce did a good job. i love the obamas!

WHAT ON EARTH DID THEY HAVE THAT AIRHEAD BEYONCE WARBLING AWAY THERE FOR? OUT OF ALL THE AMAZING MUSICAL TALENT IN THE USA - THAT FAT TRAMP IS THE BEST THEY COULD COME UP WITH?

THEY SHOULD HAVE HAD ALICIA KEYS OR MARY J BLIGE OR INDIA ARIE OR SOMEBODY UP THERE SINGING THE SONG FOR THAT FIRST DANCE.

IS IT AN UNSPOKEN RULE THAT YOU HAVE TO STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR WHEN YOU’RE A POWERFUL, SUCCESSFUL BLACK WOMAN (MICHELLE OBAMA, OPRAH, THE OBAMA DAUGHTERS, CONDI RICE….)??

The hating that some of y’all do is truly sad.

Beyonce did a fine job. Don’t be mad because she’s a part of history. And you? Ch…

Of course it was the Obamas moment and they are a lovely couple, but no need to hate on Beyonce in the process.

Wow…not a big fan of Bey anymore, but I will say…this was the Bey I loved back in the day. If she were this humble and sincere all the time, I think all the “haters” would still like her…

Also, lets not forget that this was not about Bey or any other celebrity…I was proud of them all. HOWEVER, stans please dont get your panties up in a bunch just yet because I dont care how well Bey did on this…her career - outside of this day - is still going to be a flop. I will give her this…she is going out with style.

I just seen the first dance last nite. I was crying seeing them dancing period. Just looking at them give me hope and believe on what i suppose to do for myself and my daughter and about to have custody of my little mama. Barack and Michelle is a wonderful black couple. I wish my mother was here to see it But i know she one of the angels that going to protect obama family. Love the obamas.

That was very beautiful, they could have been dancing to the sound of the wind and it would have still been nice. Beyonce…….. not a fan and I also thought there should have been a stronger singer… idk maybe the orginal singer of the song!? Oh how i wish Jennifer could have just hummed something but i understand. Anyway love the Obamas, very beautiful to see a black couple in love and in power.

i love them, the are the ideal perfect cople! just looking at them maes me smile!!

wow.. that was beautiful, they are obviously stil soo in love with each other. aww God bless them

It was a beautiful moment. The Obamas are wonderful. Beyonce sang great. I saw Beyonce get interviewed after the whole thing happened and you could tell she was sooo overwhelmed to be a part of it. Tears were just constantly filling her eyes. It was all so nice.

Beyonce did a phenomenal job! REJOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

screw what some of ya’ll are talking about…i mean do you wake up with hate on your mind i mean damn…..clearly michelle and barack was feeling beyonces performance to the upmost…..she did a beautiful job and the rift at the end was great….all of you are critics when at the end of the day this was about the obamas and from the looks of it they enjoyed her performance….knock it off damn,even on a day like yesturday niggaz show up when it should of just been proud african americans,just pisses me off….smh

That dance was beautiful. It was great to see them enjoy each other and act like they really loved each other.

I’m just happy Beyonce didn’t try to outshine the Obamas with various vocal inflections that don’t belong in the song. She showed her respect while performing.

75

She may have outdressed her, but Bey surely out sang her.

This was one moment in time..

Beyonce dress, vocals and everything was on point for this moment…

Everyone did a marvelous job, we represented like we all know we could. I though it was funny how a station mentioned that there was no arrest made throughout the whole thing…

Not to deflect from the event but why are some people nit picking Beyonces dress and her pertruding nipple when Mariah had her cantaloup cleavage exposed the whole performance, come on now, let’s not turn this into a bash beyonce thing.

I’m so proud to have been able to witness this moment in history, even though I’m young ,I can still appreciate it.

That was so beautiful i love Michelle so elegant an classy, Obama is a wicked dancer real smooth i just luv this family, now i wouldnt mind watching this couple everyday other than the other two I,m glad beyonce performed everytime she watches this it might teach her a thing or two about class and what a real African American women looks and acts like peace

What are some of yall that blinded by hate for Beyonce. GET OVER IT. This was first dance was about President Barack Obama and The ever so lovely First Lady Michelle Obama. This is truly not the time to be nitpicking about who should have sang, who YOU dont like, what YOU dont like, so on and so on. You know why, because nobody gives a sh*t about who yall like and who you dont like. Like I said this day belong to the President and his Wife. When one of your spouses becomes President, then you can decide who should perform at the inaugural balls. Until then have a coke and a smile and shut the f*ck up.

Why do dumba** people always have to ruin it for everybody. This moment was unbelieveably beautiful. The Obamas inspire me so much and everytime I look at them, they make me want to become stronger, wiser, better. This is now the time to truly lift one another up. Leave the negativity in the gutter. Aspire to be much more than you are. That is for everybody.

Excuse my *errors*.

Michelle is so beautiful !

beyonce did it , im in tears

PLEASE GOD TAKE BEYONCE’S LIFE FROM HER SOON!

aww de r a relly gd couple i fink so don’t even say nifink bout dat cuz if u do u r soo crap

it was so beautiful (you can tell they really love each other) and beyonce sounded great, and looked great as well

Watching them dance made me cry even now, I’m so excited that the Lord allowed me to see this come to pass. Now we need to work together and pray for him so we can make it out of this mess the former administration has put us in.

What r yall talking about. I love vanessa williams. Get over beyonce already.. Goodness.. The first dance was lovely though.

aammmaazzziiinnngg!!!!. Just unbelievable. I cried. It was so beautiful

Barack and Michelle both looked Beautiful and Beyonce did a Great Job !
Black Love at it’s Best !

THEY ARE JUST STUNNING TOGETHER!!! I LOVE THOSE 2 TOGETHER!!

{Lets be respectful yall}

PRESIDENT and FIRST LADY OBAMA looked absolutely breathtaking. President Obama is so charming and I love the fact that he points out how Beautiful our First Lady is. I have to say though Mr. President seems to have two left feet I could not help but to become misty eyed as a read his lips telling our First Lady “I love you” with so much passion in his eyes.

You could just see and hear the Pride in Denzel’s voice as he introduced the the first family. It was so magical to see the flow of emotions that Bey was overcome with, you can not blame her, the whole evening was dazzling and one that I will never forget.

Now the work begins.

Beyonce did great bump! the haters! N 1#9 why are talking about her nipples you were focused so much on her to find something negative to say n also who ever said ciara should have sing for them to are crazy, she is not good vocalist and they wanted ciara to sing they would of asked her…lmao n they didn’t so…..

Whatever ! i love the obama’s but that song was painful (mostly played at weddings now), but Etta James does it much better. Mariah is still that chick!

I know Bee had to cry, I’m happy for her that she got to sing to them….Because she will ALWAYS remember that!

still love kanye…mullet or not lol
demi moore n ashton look cute, love her dress

loved it, even though i dont like beyonce, it was a beautiful moment.
such a beautiful moment.

This was sweet, but why didn’t they ask Etta James? I mean it’s her song and she’s still alive. No one does it like her.

@ 103- on the day after we inaugurate our first African-American POTUS you wish death upon a young positive African-American woman? That’s messed up on so many levels on ANY day, actually. SICK!

The Obamas have stated in many interviews they are fans of Beyonce (as well as Stevie, Mary, etc.) and how the kids are huge Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus fans (the JBros surprised the girls after the White House scavenger hunt last night, btw). So, it’s only fitting that those singers were among the selected performers. Etta James had no problem with Bey portraying her nor remaking her song so why should anyone else? I heard the wonderful Ms. James sing her own song a few years ago and while her voice is lovely, it’s not the same as when the song was recorded. If it was good enough for the Obamas, it should be good enough for everyone else. Their joy and love was evident on their faces, as was their appreciation for Beyonce singing “their” song. All I’m saying is “It’s a NEW DAY!” so let’s just come together and be happy. Peace

hey haters, pls stop hatin on beyonce’s song for Obama and Michelle’s first dance.. ya need frickin stop begin acts like as immature.. ya need frickin grow up for leave Beyonce’s alone.. if ya hater on Beyonce and thats mean ya are so jealous on her.. Beyonce is real doing nothin to you. Beyonce is give sum love to ya for our american is BLACK.. use ur own common sense and whats up wit that?..its not time to begin a HATER on B.. alright?

Beyonce is frickin so Gorgeous… Obama n Michelle are soo very good-lookin’.. BLACK IS SOOO BEAUTIFUL!

Beautiful and fitting song! Beyonce did a great job.

SIMPLY LOVELY. IT FILLS ME WITH JOY TO SEE A BLACK COUPLE SO IN LOVE. IT’S ALMOST LIKE A FAIRY TALE

THE REASON THEY CHOSE BEYONCE INSTEAD OF A MORE “POWERFUL” SINGER AS SOME OF YOU PEOPLE CALL IT IS BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T WANT ANYONE SCREAMING FOR THE FIRST COUPLES DANCE. IT WAS SUCH A SOFT AND SERENE MOMENT, THEY DIDN’T WANT ANY OVERBARING VOCALIST PERFORMING. I THINK SHE DID AN EXCELLENT JOB. THE WHOLE EVENT WAS BEAUTIFUL

LOVE IT! LOVE B love it!

Sidenote: Yah need to leave Beyonce alone! WTF? I mean her last album was not the best but one thing homegirl never fails is a performance! She sang perfectly for the President and First-Lady…It was nice and initimate! She made the spotlight just for them and out herself in the shadow…She did her job! Point blank, nobody in our generation does it better!!! Beyonce= Best performer alive! She works hard for that title!

‘”Aside from that Beyonce looked nice and did ok I think that they could have chosen a much better vocalist though. Hey that’s just an oservation and my opinion!”

Agreed!! As usual she oversung. I hate vocal gymnastics.

@TIA…you call people ignorant and then go use the n word. Please.

“so magical to see the flow of emotions that Bey was overcome with, you can not blame her, ”

That is the best I’ve seen Beyonce act. Goodness knows how long she stood infront the mirror practising that one. Then again,she cries at all her shows at the exact same time. Nothing new. She may finally get her Oscar.

“This was sweet, but why didn’t they ask Etta James? I mean it’s her song and she’s still alive. No one does it like her.”

Because people are fickle…

[...] As we posted earlier, President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama shared their first dance as Beyonce sang “At Last”, at the Neighborhood Inaugural Ball on Tuesday night (view video). [...]

beyonce is a fake brad

I think that this was a dream come true and I thank GOD! for his grace.Be Blessed

A truly beautiful and timeless moment in history. The Obama’s are an inspiration on so many levels. An inspiration to not only work harder in life, but to love harder also. Proud doesn’t even begin to explain what I feel watching this!

GOD I LOVE THAT MAN .LORDY

That was an amazingly beautiful moment. Barack and Michelle are so lovely.

And Beyonce? She sang her heart out and it’s pretty apparent she was
moved by such a momentuous occasion.
