Where is Beyonce? Singer confuses fans as she fails to show up on the Grammys red carpet

Queen Bey kept fans guessing all the way through the 58th Grammy Awards

Has Beyonce skipped the Grammys?

Beyonce left fans disappointed as she failed to show up on the Grammys red carpet.
The 58th Grammy Awards kicked off in serious style but without one very famous face as Queen Bey kept fans guessing throughout the night.
Fans rushed to Twitter to ask "Where is Beyonce?", just as it was revealed Rihanna had pulled out of her performance at the glittering ceremony at the last minute.
One fan wrote: "In the perfect world, Beyoncé & Rihanna actually are performing together and the jokes on us."
It was later revealed Beyonce WOULD be attending - but just to present the award for Record of the Year.

Meanwhile, RiRi definitely won't be making it on stage at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.
According to reports the singer did arrive at the venue but left after rehearsals.
TMZ reports that the star was advised to pull out by her doctors after struggling with bronchitis and was warned that if she went ahead she could damage her vocal chords forever.
Rihanna was due to perform Kiss Me Better at the ceremony.
