Diana Ross recently serenaded Beyoncé with the “Happy Birthday” song on stage — and the moment was truly iconic.
The “I’m Coming Out” singer appeared on stage at a stop of Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour on Monday night at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. Ross took the stage and sang her 1975 hit song, “Love Hangover,” before leading the crowd to sing “Happy Birthday” to Beyoncé, who turned 42 on Sept 4.
Fan videos on social media captured Beyoncé holding hands with Ross as she serenaded her. The “Break My Soul” singer hugged and thanked the legendary Supremes performer, saying, “Thank you so much, you are so amazing.”
She continued, turning to the crowd, “This is the legendary Diana Ross!”
Ross told Beyoncé moments later on stage that she wanted to return the favor to the “Renaissance” singer, who serenaded her on her 75th birthday in 2019.
Beyoncé’s birthday performance on Monday featured another sentimental moment.
The singer delivered an emotional speech reflecting on the last several years in front of the star-studded crowd.
“My heart is full. My soul is full. I’m so thankful — I’m going to try not to cry,” she said, according to video clips posted online. “I’m thankful to be alive. I’m thankful to be on the stage. I’m thankful to look out and see your faces.”
Beyoncé shared her gratitude to her fans in a heartfelt speech at a concert stop in another California city last month.
The city council of Santa Clara declared the singer the honorary mayor of the city for the day on Aug. 30. Beyoncé celebrated the title at her concert at Santa Clara’s Levi’s Stadium later that night, saying it was a “special” day.
