The Kobe Bryant memorial being held at the Staples Center was opened by Beyonce, who performed a two-song medley, and the performance has Twitter in tears. Taking the stage, Beyonce sang her songs “XO” and “Halo,” in honor of Bryant and his 13-year-old daughter, both of whom were killed in a tragic helicopter crash on Jan. 26. Fans have been weeping over Beyonce’s musical tribute, with one tweeting, “Beyonce voice and her lyrics makes the pain so personal. ‘Baby kiss me before they turn the lights out’ ‘I got my #ANGEL now.’”

Beyoncé developed a soul stirring performance and it was felt deeply by world 🌎 as she sang XO and Halo, gracefully. She looked gorgeous as well! And it brought many to tears even Vanessa Bryant.
Beyoncé not signing “crashing into you” and “you kill me boy XO”…🥺 A considerate queen https://t.co/pVafzN1V48
