When you think of Beyoncé and the MTV VMAs, you probably think of the incident with Kanye West and Taylor Swift.

But after tonight, we think we've got a new iconic Queen B at the VMAs moment.

Performing a megamix of songs from Lemonade – including "Pray You Catch Me," "Hold Up," "Sorry," "Don't hurt Yourself," and "Formation" – Beyoncé walked out onto the stage in a regal white gown surrounded by dancers who fell to the ground one-by-one before everything went dark. 

As the lights came up, Beyoncé revealed that famous booty in a skintight black outfit.

Perhaps the best moment comes when Beyoncé smashes the camera (!) with her trusty baseball bat, Hot Sauce.

 It was incredible, obviously.
