After dazzling fans on Friday night, Beyonce continued to wow at her second performance at the Revel in Atlantic City—and last night, the audience included First Lady Michelle Obama and First Daughters Malia and Sasha. Malia and Sasha apparently sang along to "Love on Top."
Beyonce told the audience, "Y’all don’t know how hard I had to work. I had to lose 60 pounds. They had me on the treadmill, eating lettuce.” Also spotted were Will and Jada Smith, Gayle King and NJ Governor Chris Christie, who Tweeted, "Great show by Beyonce. Great energy, great dancing & she was in great voice. Great night for Atlantic City--beautiful start to the summer!" So, is he still mad about Jay-Z taking the Nets to Brooklyn?
One of the concert videos shown during the show included glimpses of baby Blue Ivy and Jay-Z, which the crowd ate up:
Here are more videos of her songs, including the "If I Were a Boy"-"Iris" medley and an un-narrated "I Will Always Love You"-"Halo" medley.
