Performance of the decade: Beyonce "Who runs the world (girls)" at the 2011 Billboard awards

Beyonce's commitment to taking her craft to the next level with new project 4 has finally begun to be realised with the amazing live performance of current single Who runs the world (girls)at the 2011 Billboard awards.

Clever use of screens, lighting, extras and pyrotechnics gave the performance a cutting edge, futuristic feel but in credit to the singer and her stage presence, all the extras never overshadowed or competed with Beyonce herself.

Watch the performance below and see why Queen B is on a level of her own when it comes to putting on a show. Who runs the show? Beyonce!
