Beyonce says that a diva is the female version of a "hustler" in her semi-hit song, "Diva." But a diva is a female who can fire somebody in mid-performance, while sanging and dancing and not miss a beat.
That's exactly what Beyonce did onstage in the middle of her "I Am...." Tour in Rotterdam in the Netherlands. In the singer's performance of "Diva," the lights are supposed to cut during the first chorus as Beyonce and her back-up dancers twitch and jerk, while flipping their hair, leaving only their silhouettes visible. (Watch the effect here in the music video. It's 1:13 in.) But onstage, the lighting tech must've missed his cue cause the lights didn't go down and the diva in Beyonce hollered, "LIGHTS!" then she sang fatally, "Somebody's gettin' FIRED!" Watch, the good stuff starts around 0:44 seconds.
I don't even wanna know what happened to that lighting dude after the show. I just hope he was able to survive the wrath of Sasha Fierce.
