BEYONCE DAZZLES ON THE FIRST NIGHT OF HER SELL-OUT RUN @ THE ROSELAND BALLROOM IN NEW YORK

She sold out one night at the 2,500 capacity venue in just 22 seconds last week and last night Beyoncé performed the first of four sell-out gigs at the Roseland Ballroom in New York. The superstar singer dazzled as she graced the stage to perform tracks from her number one album 4 on the same day her husband Jay-Z called her the ‘second coming of Michael Jackson’.

Beyoncé looked fab as she strutted around on the stage in a slinky gold number to run through a selection of songs at the intimate gig.

Fans packed themselves into the downtown venue watching eagerly as their idol performed her album tracks with the vigour and panache that has made her one of the world’s biggest stars.

The star’s sparkling gold dress came courtesy of her mother Tina Knowles, while she wore shoes by Stuart Weitzman.

Much of the music at the intimate gig came from Beyoncé’s chart-topping 4 – with a few prior hits thrown in for good measure.

A sea of mobile phones and cameras recorded constantly as she powered through the likes of Countdown, Love On Top, End Of Time, I Care, Rather Die Young, Party and I Miss You, penned by Frank Ocean of hip-hop collective OFWGKTA.

One fan managed to film almost the entire gig, uploading multiple videos to YouTube within hours of the end of the show.

Last night’s gig was the first of four to be held at the Roseland Ballroom, all of which sold out on the very first day they were made available.

Meanwhile Beyoncé’s rapper husband has said she’s the ‘second coming of Michael Jackson’ – comparing her work ethic to that of the late King Of Pop.

In an interview with Miami radio station 99 Jamz he was asked what he’s learned from his famous wife.

The rapper said: ‘What I learned from her is what I learned from Mike, and I know that’s blasphemy to compare the two because Mike was such an innovator but it’s like the second coming.

‘For the hard work and the dedication that she puts into her shows – it just makes you want to work harder at your craft, she’s like a machine.’
