I love how Obama right off the bat was very partisan in this speech: ''We recall that what binds this nation together is not the colors of our skin or the tenets of our faith or the origins of our names." Shots thrown. I guess he is ditching this naiive bipartisan reach across the aisle kumbaya BS and now he is back to promoting the liberal agenda.The Repubs have been disgustingly obstructionist and I love how he subliminally called them out. It's about damn time he got his balls back. Welcome Back Mr. Pres.

Beyonce was good. She was obviously very nervous and she held back. I thought I spotted her hand shaking a bit. She looked gorgeous and did great though. BTW, has anyone noticed her neck has gotten very thick since motherhood? Kelly Clarkson looked an awkward mess scurrying up and out of the stage. She did great too though lol

You guys are such little kids. That's not what the ceremony was about.
And at the posts of Kelly's stans when Bey was singing.

The super bowl rendition takes place in a stadium. At the inauguration, you are five feet from the president. Of course you are gonna be as flashy.

The praise for the two best vocalists of this generation.

There's so much praise for Bey, I can't keep up. She better drop that single tomorrow and stop playing around.

I love Beyonce, but Kelly Clarkson was my highlight of the event

Kelly did a good job, I don't see why there's so much fuss.

She looks so magnificent and sound just as good. I'm so happy she was a little restrained and didn't sing it like on the SB. Her runs were so sharp and precise yet never overdone. A vocal goddess.

[Mhs90]

Anyways, Beyonce and Kelly remain the best two vocalists of this generation >>>

So glad they both were considered and PREFERRED for this year's inauguration

Don't ever call me sweetie in a condescending manner chick. You don't know me. Check yourself. I just went onto twitter refreshed it and those were the trending topics. You don't have to like it. I could care less.

The whole Inauguration's "show" was great.

Yeah, I think it's better that she under-did it (by very little) than overdoing it because otherwise ATRLers would have been saying it's all about her.

@clayaiken: Beyonce just WORKED that National Anthem! That National Anthem needs a cigarette after what she just did to it!! That was INCREDIBLE!! Wow!

@BetteMidler: The hardest song in any repertoire, the National Anthem. She had to remove the in-ear monitor. It's a bear. She sang beautifully.

Seriously why are Kelly's stans so butthurt?

None of us talked about Bey's performance being better than Kelly's. We all praised Kelly's performance.

Calm down. jeez
