So Beyonce—we mean QUEEN Beyonce—just won the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award at this year’s MTV Video Music Awards (VMA). After a jaw-dropping 15-minute mini-concert of almost her ENTIRE Beyonce album, Bey received the trophy from King Jay-Z and Princess Blue Ivy who went onstage to hand it to Queen Mommy.
Here, we present the emotional stages of watching said Beyonce performance:
The stage and lights looked AMAZING:

“OMG FINALLY, eto na girl!!!”

And then Beyonce said this:

And we were all like:

Then she asked us:

And we were all like:

Beyonce's VMA medley consisted of 12 songs: 1) "Mine," 2) "Haunted," 3) "No Angel," 4) "Jealous," 5) "Blow," 6) "Drunk In Love," 7) "Rocket," 8) "Partition," 9) "Flawless," 10) "Yonce," 11) "Blue," and 12) "XO"
And each song had a sexy/sassy/fierce/[enter superlative] variation of this:

And we all went:

By the time she sang "Drunk In Love"...

We were literally:
Then she SLAYED in "Partition":

And we lightened up a bit:

Then Beyonce did this:

And this again:

Us:

Then she sang "Blue," with larger-than-life videos of her daughter and hubby onscreen:

Then we remembered the breakup rumors.
And the floodgates REALLY opened.
We couldn't think of a better ending to her medley: "XO," where Beyonce asked the audience to repeat after her.
~*~We were all U.C.W.S.A. (Ugly Crying While Singing Along)~*~
"You love me like XOoooo..."

After "XO," King Jay Z carried Princess Blue to the stage and shared a moment with Queen Mommy after he handed her the award and called her "The Greatest Living Entertainer." We died when Bey called him "My Beloved."
What divorce rumors???

Us:

Thank you, BEYONCE. ♥
