Beyoncé dazzles on the first night of her sell-out run at the Roseland Ballroom in New York

Who runs the world?: Beyoncé beams on stage as she performs an intimate gig at the Roseland Ballroom in New York



She sold out one night at the 2,500 capacity venue in just 22 seconds last week and last night Beyoncé performed the first of four sell-out gigs at the Roseland Ballroom in New York.



The superstar singer dazzled as she graced the stage to perform tracks from her number one album 4 on the same day her husband Jay-Z called her the 'second coming of Michael Jackson'.



Beyoncé looked fab as she strutted around on the stage in a slinky gold number to run through a selection of songs at the intimate gig.

Fans packed themselves into the downtown venue watching eagerly as their idol performed her album tracks with the vigour and panache that has made her one of the world's biggest stars.



The star's sparkling gold dress came courtesy of her mother Tina Knowles, while she wore shoes by Stuart Weitzman.



Much of the music at the intimate gig came from Beyoncé's chart-topping 4 – with a few prior hits thrown in for good measure.



A sea of mobile phones and cameras recorded constantly as she powered through the likes of Countdown, Love On Top, End Of Time, I Care, Rather Die Young, Party and I Miss You, penned by Frank Ocean of hip-hop collective OFWGKTA.
