Singing superstar Beyonce-Knowles Carter stole the show at US basketball star Kobe Bryant's memorial service last night.
She belted out one of her most famous songs, Halo.
Actress and singer Jennifer Lopez was also in attendance, as well as many other famous faces.
Even in the arena loaded with sports and entertainment stars, famous basketballer Michael Jordan taking the stage left the audience awestruck. The crowd had been growing a little restless after an unbroken string of speakers, and some headed for the bathroom and concessions after 90 minutes of sitting still, but when the Chicago Bulls legend walked on to the stage, the Staples Center audience snapped back to full attention, and when Jordan was crying from his first words, they knew they were witnessing a rare moment.
Michael even acknowledged his tears invoked the photo meme that dominated social media several years ago. “Now he’s got me,” Jordan said of Bryant. “I’m going to have to look at another crying meme for the next” and was cut off by laughs and howls from the crowd.
