It's not exactly a red-carpet ceremony,
but President Barack Obama's second-term inauguration has an unmistakable Hollywood look.
There was a loud cheer for Beyonce and Jay-Z as they took their places at the Capitol on Monday to watch Obama take the public oath of office for his second term.

Musicians Kelly Clarkson and James Taylor were present as well, to perform at the inaugural ceremony.
And former Boston Celtics great Bill Russell was in the crowd.        



Bey looked appropriately glam in a black floor-length Emilio Pucci gown with all-over floral detailing, a knee-length Christian Dior fur coat, statement emerald earrings, and a matching ring, both from Lorraine Schwartz. Jay showed off his Tom Ford suit and tie (and scarf), and chose not to wear his fur-lined topper.

Belting it out! The singer performed the U.S. national anthem Star Spangled Banner

After watching Obama's second inauguration, Beyonce stepped onto the podium herself to belt out The Star Spangled Banner.
With huge emeralds glinting on her ears, and her finger, the beauty looked moved as she gave a passionate performance.
