Rap-Up.com || Beyoncé Returns to the Stage at Atlantic City Concert

She’s back! Beyoncé made a triumphant return to the stage for her first show in nearly a year at the $2.4 billion Revel resort in Atlantic City on Friday. The new mom commanded the stage for over two hours with her arsenal of hits, plus a cover of Lauryn Hill’s “Ex-Factor” and a tribute to the late Whitney Houston (“I Will Always Love You”).

“I’m gonna say this and then I’m gonna end mine,” tweeted her husband Jay-Z. “BEYONCE is the best performer in the world. Period.”

Check out King B’s five glamorous stage looks below.

@bm.kk, Sorry but she does not look cute as she used to. Her performance was lackluster to say the least. I’ve seen her do better. And for Joe Camel aka Jay-Z to say she’s the BEST..Umm No, he is trippin.

@DARBe, Someone who attended the show tweeted saying they confirmed it was being recorded. I LOVED her Lauyrn Hill cover and the little clip I saw of Schoolin Life, she looks FAB, and THIS folks is how you do it. SO glad she’s back to put all this Mediocrity to rest LOL

Looks amazing. I want this to be released on dvd…the setlist was amazing. I have to see good quality videos of Dance For You, Schoolin Life, Start Over, Resentment, Lauryn Hill cover and the Whitney Houston cover. You can’t disagree with Jay..she is the best performer. Though that tweet reminded me of Kanye LOL.

Yawns! Same S.H.I.T different day. Next!

Her career is dwindling. All these extra behind the scene antics = desperation to capture the general public’s attention. The Stanz are doing a good job flooding the blogosphere but people are just over it. Most of her posts are filled with the same statements over and over again. Although, I get a good laugh at Stan’s replying to every comment that they dont agree with. Stans need to realize that not everyone will like her work. Most of the naysayers are old Beyonce fans who has been turned off by die hard bey stans.

Really? seriously i LOVE BEYONCE, and im so happy for her but… shes ALWAYS wearing that same type of clothes and the same dance and the same sets, same hair/makeup. ‘DIVERSITY? Psshh.
Its been happening since: I AM SASHA FIERCE, Kinda gettin tired of it.

@Saskia, she had new costumes, a new setlist, and new choreography. And Beyonce actually has talent, she doesn’t need to constantly change her hair to garner peoples attention and yes that was shade.

@MinajRules2012, The show was far from cheap. The production was something she’s never done before. You can’t judge it fully if you weren’t there. Just wait till a DVD comes out and you will see what I mean. You can’t just look at a couple pics and say it was cheap. I was there and she put on one hell of a show. A show that no current/alive artist can put on. The way she commands the stage. Her stage presence. Everything.

If beyonce did a complete style makeover with different hair and different music she would be called fake and desperate. If she stays true to herself and continues doing what she’s known for she’s considered boring! Smh can’t please everyone. People just try to find any little thing to criticize her about. Enjoy the damn pics and if you don’t like her than don’t even click on the post! Btw the show was great. KING B !
