MANILA, Philippines - It was a performance now being compared to the Spice Girls reunion at the 2012 Olympics.

Beyonce Knowles, fresh from a controversial lipsynch-o-rama at US President Barack Obama's re-inauguration on January 21 (January 22 Manila time), gave an "explosive" 2013 Super Bowl halftime show that featured a reunion with her Destiny's Child band mates Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana on February 3 (February 4, Manila time).

Beyonce's performance began with "Crazy in Love," (check out the amazing top shots in the video below) "End of Time," and "Baby Boy" before her former band mates joined her onstage. Together, they performed "Bootylicious," "Independent Women," and Beyonce's solo hit, "Single Ladies."

After Williams and Rowland went offstage, Beyonce went on to sing "Halo."
