Beyonce has been tapped to sing for Barack and Michelle Obama's first dance on inauguration night! Truly a time for change. The choice of song is currently a secret, so that means it's totally time to guess. There's certainly a chance that Beyonce will do a cover of a patriotic or classic inspirational song, but I'm really hoping she does one of her originals. Here are my top picks: Crazy In Love: It's hot, and what better way to get Michelle and Barack bumpin' on the dance floor? She could also change the lyrics to: "Oh oh oh oh oh oh Obama." You're welcome.
Survivor: This goes out to all the haters. Seriously, don't try to kill our new president.
Upgrade: It's definitely time for this nation to get an upgrade!
If I Was A Boy: But wait! Before you get upset, think about it: she could totally change the lyrics to "If I Was Obama" and really use the song to push forth her own political agenda. SMART.
Bootylicious: Do you think America's ready for this jelly?
I think any of these would work beautifully and add a lot of dignity and grace to the ceremony. Only time will tell. I guess the real question is, will she be introduced as Beyonce or Sasha Fierce?
