Can you believe that Oprah Winfrey’s show ends next week? Neither can we!

Over the years, the Queen of Daytime has hosted countless pop stars and actors and last night, many of them repaid the favor.

A crowd of more than 20,000 packed Chicago’s United Center for “Surprise Oprah! A Farewell Spectacular.”

Stars like [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Beyonce[/lastfm], [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Usher[/lastfm], and [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Alicia Keys[/lastfm] took the stage to pay tribute and we have your first look at one of the performances!

[lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Beyonce[/lastfm] got the audience on their feet with her first live performance of “Run The World (Girls).”

The Chicago Tribune reports that B got the loudest cheers (not counting Oprah of course!).

Some technical difficulties forced [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Beyonce[/lastfm] and her 40 dancers to go through the song twice, but we’re sure the audience didn’t mind!

The two-part extravaganza will air on May 23 and 24. Oprah’s final show takes place on May 25th.
