Beyonce shocks the Brits with TV first

Beyonce has surprised the star-studded audience at London's Brit Awards with a live performance, her first Brits appearance in a decade.

Beyonce has shocked the Brit Awards in London, taking to the stage with a surprise rendition of her track XO, the first time she's sung the song live on television.

Dazzling in a green sequinned, floor-length dress, the superstar sung the track - one of the uplifting highlights from her new album Beyonce - to a background of fake fireworks.

The performance was Beyonce's first Brits appearance in a decade.

Moments after the surprise, Brits host James Corden expressed his excitement during the live TV broadcast by exclaiming: "Oh s***, Beyonce, s***."

The American star received a warm welcome among the star-studded audience at London's O2 Arena, which roused in their cheers.

Beyonce's secret Brits appearance was revealed earlier in the day.
