Dedicating the song to eight-year-old Sasha and 10-year-old Malia, she told the crowd, "This is for Sasha and Malia - and all my single ladies!"

Beyonce was a staunch Obama supporter in the run up to the U.S. elections last November (08) and she performed Etta James classic At Last at thepolitician's inauguration ceremony in January (09) - a track she also sang during her D.C. gig.
