The superstar appeared in a surprise, pre-recorded video introducing Team USA just before their debut as they floated down the Seine which winds along the Paris coast.

“We’ve got superstars and we’ve got legends,” Beyoncé spoke to the rhythm of her song, “YA YA,” off her most recent album, Cowboy Carter. “We’ve got big dreamers who fought their whole lives to get here, who gave up everything for one shot, and made it.”

While it was all about the athletes, Bey had her moment as well as she showed her own Team USA spirit dressed in a red, white and blue leotard, rhinestoned cowboy hat and jazzed up boots.

“That pride and that joy? That’s what gets me about this team,” she continued. “And that’s what makes me believe in this team. And that’s why I can’t wait to see what they pull off over these next 16 days. America, give it up for Team USA, the very best of who we are. What a vision to behold. What a team to believe in. What a night to celebrate.”
