The 'Formation' singer took to the stage at Levi stadium in Santa Clara wearing a leather military bodysuit with gold bands in an X over her chest, which appeared to be in homage to the black leather jacket Michael wore for his 1993 performance.

Dsquared2 designers Dean and Dan Caten, created the outfit and said: "We love Beyonce and wanted to create something where she resembles a warrior leading her female posse who fall into formation and take Super Bowl 50 at half-time!"

Beyonce completed her look with fishnet tights and Christian Louboutin ankle boots.

She performed her new single 'Formation' before joining Bruno Mars for a dance off and finished with the pair singing 'Up & Up', with Coldplay.

And Beyonce ensured it was her night by announcing during the telecast that her 'Formation' world tour will launch on April 27th.

Meanwhile, Beyonce revealed she felt "proud" of her Super Bowl performance and loved being on stage in front of the audience at the stadium, as well as the billions of viewers watching on TV around the world.

She told Entertainment Tonight: "It felt great. It makes me proud. I wanted people to feel proud, and have love for themselves."
