Beyoncé is arriving in the UK this week when she brings her hugely anticipated Formation World Tour to Sunderland, Manchester, London, Cardiff and Glasgow. Beyonce and Kendrick Lamar made a surprise performance at last night’s BET (Black Entertainment Television) Awards. They weren’t on the bill but opened the awards ceremony in L.A with their track ‘Freedom’ and it was MAGNIFICENT.

The politically charged performance began with a recording of Martin Luther King Jr’s ‘I Have A Dream’ speech.

Bey and her dancers stomped round a huge pool of water in red light, before Kendrick rose from the floor to deliver his verse.
