Beyoncé turned Croke Park into a sea of purple last night

Croker was looking well.

BEYONCÉ PLAYED A much-anticipated gig in Croke Park yesterday, and initial reviews say you missed one of the best nights of your life if you weren’t there.

Soz mates.

The queen bee ran from watching her friend Serena Williams take her 22nd title at Wimbledon, to perform in Croker for over two hours.

All in a day’s work.

She even made an effort to turn the stadium into a sea of purple in tribute to the late Prince, who died back in April

It looked spectacular

Purple Rain played out over the speakers, a touching tribute to the legend she once dueted with at the Grammys

She has performed the tribute at most stops of her Formation tour, but did they look as glam as Croker? Nah.

Not one to just leave it at that, Bey gave her best rendition of The Beautiful Ones

Princes hardest songs, some might argue. Beyoncé first performed the cover at Glastonbury in 2011, and she killed it.

Lovely.
