Hey, have you had that "Single Ladies" song by Beyoncé in your head? No? Well consider yourself immensely fortunate, and then get ready to have it lodged in there until well after the end of days. The recently-married performer was on the Today show in her spandex unitard belting it out bright n' early this morning. Enjoy!
Not too long ago she was in Williamsburg portraying a police officer in her video for a (less catchy) song. The Bedford Avenue bodega Deli Mart got some screen time, and it looks like she could have done some damage on Election Night. Aaaand that's all your Beyoncé news for today.
