It seems Beyonce has stolen a little bit of the spotlight from the Obama family during the 2013 Presidential Inauguration. Of course, that’s not terribly surprising. This is Beyonce we’re talking about here. The New York Times brings us this video clip excerpt from the official ceremony of her rendition of The Star Spangled Banner that has instantly…
