On a sweltering night in Miami, Jay Z and Beyonce kicked off their On The Run summer tour, and took the 76,000-strong crowd on a non-stop two-and-half-hour joyride, covering over 40 songs without an intermission.
The Sun Life stadium was packed (forcing many audience members stood on their chairs to get a decent view) but Jay and Bey kept their fans waiting, and started the show an hour and a half past ticket time. Once the show finally began, Jay and Bey charged through their repertoire at a spitfire pace.
The lovey-dovey duo – glimmers of spontaneous affection, particularly those initiated by Jay Z, sent the crowd into a frenzy – began with Bonnie & Clyde, with Beyonce seductively walking into view to reveal a fishnet leotard and matching ski mask. They upped the tempo with Upgrade You, and Bey released her golden mane, hair flipping around her husband in true Sasha Fierce fashion. These high-octane bangers were among the show's strongest moments, allowing both performers to bask in their own unapologetic confidence.
