In the gallery is the first picture up of Beyonce since the whole controversy of lip-syncing incident. Bey shared a picture of her looking EXTRA fierce while she was at her at her mother’s restaurant in New Orleans. She is staying there so she can rehearse for the upcoming Super Bowl. But she finally explains her “excuse” of WHY she lip-synced. She reportedly claims that she did it because she’s saving her voice for the Superbowl. ‘She’s getting ready for the Super Bowl so we didn’t have chance to do anything with her until the night. So it’s a very tight window of opportunity.’ Interesting! Do you guys think the Superbowl performance is more important than the inauguration? Facts are: 20 million Americans tuned in to watch Obama’s second inauguration, it is expected that approximately 160 million will watch the Super Bowl. So maybe she made the right decision? Let us know below! Oh, and check out Bey’s pic below!
