  • Celebrities including Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Rihanna and Queen Latifah attended, with Rihanna greeting both artists backstage and dancing in the crowd.
  • Reviews described a nostalgia-rich, career-spanning production that highlighted both singers’ catalogs and vocal power, including a Whitney Houston tribute.
