"Beyonce was especially amazing. She looked fabulous, and her voice was really strong. During the performance somebody texted me to say they could not hear Kelly and Michelle sing. It was so noisy in the house where we watched the performance that I did not really notice anything wrong. But who knows? They probably had some technical problems."</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; padding: 0px;">Well, there was that whole blackout thing that happened afterward, but the Ministry doesn't believe that's the kind of shade throwing she's alluding to.</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; padding: 0px;">"It was great to see them all performing together and I have no bitter or bad feelings toward any of those women. I wish them all the best," she said. "I am at a good place in my life and things always work out for a reason. I am working on several projects with both acting and music that are exciting to me."</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; padding: 0px;">Alas, none of those things are likely to come close to the Super Bowl Halftime Show.</div><br /><br /></div>
