Beyonce Knowles-Carter made her first public appearance last night Monday, February 6, 2012 as she attended her hubby Jay Z’s two shows at the Carnegie Hall to benefit United Way of New York City and The Shawn Carter Scholarship Foundation.
The singer who took delivery of her first child Blue Ivy Carter on Sunday, January 8, 2012 stepped out in a Red Alice Temperly dress, accessorized with Ofira & Lorraine Schwartz jewels, an out-of-place Alexander McQueen clutch bag and a pair of sparkly Christian Louboutin heels.
Jay Z, 42, who was dressed in a simple bow tie and dinner jacket, opened his set backed by a 36-piece orchestra. The Brooklyn rapper performed some of his songs like ‘Public service announcement’, ‘Thank you’, and was later joined on stage by Alicia Keys to perform the New York tribute ‘Empire state of mind’.
Foe-turned-friend Nas also took to the stage during the gig.
Bey and Jay have been married for 4 years.
