Beyoncé sang the president and Michelle Obama through their first inaugural dance, and now, the first lady is revealing what she thought of Beyoncé's rendition of "At Last."

"Beyoncé is an incredible young woman. Barack and I have met her on a few occasions, and it was a great honor to hear her sing 'At Last' so beautifully at the inauguration," Michelle is quoted as saying in the new issue of EBONY magazine. "She is so talented and so real, and we just love her."

And how does Beyonce feel about her inaugural performance?

"I was completely anxious and honored," she tells EBONY of being asked to sing for the Obamas. "Honestly, I've watched [the tape of the performance] every day because I just want to relive the moment."
