Last night Beyonce and Jay-Z performed for the second time at the FedExField stadium in Washington, D.C. The singer wrote: "DC, it's a wrap! We're off to Philly."

This week, Billboard is celebrating the music video with a week's worth of content that looks at the past, present and future of the video, at a time when it seems to be as relevant as ever. Here, we flashback ten years for an extended look at how arguably the most legendary video from the 21st century's greatest music video star came together, and why its legacy endures a decade later.

On the St. Louis stop of the 2016 Formation World Tour, Beyoncé and her dancers -- including her dance captain, Ashley Everett -- were just about to wave their hands through the final bars of “Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)” when the pop star paused. The buoyant bass continued to blast as she vamped, coyly pacing the stage before she turned on her heel and signaled for a gentleman in a white jacket to join her. John Silver, Everett’s boyfriend, trotted into the spotlight and took the floor, where he presented his dumbstruck love with an engagement ring -- one that got an all-too-appropriate cameo during a sequence as familiar to the crowd as the “Single Ladies” chorus itself. If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it: he did, so he did, and Everett flicked her wrist and flashed her newly-minted diamond in the routine she helped create.

That such a life-changing moment went down in the middle of a “Single Ladies” performance is perfect, as the song has proven to be a monumentally transformative force in the lives of Beyoncé and those of her closest collaborators. Everett was at Beyoncé’s side when she filmed the music video for “Single Ladies” and in the three months leading up to the shoot, when they and choreographers Frank Gatson Jr. and JaQuel Knight worked tirelessly to hone every kick, waist-wind, and lift that would go on to define one of the most iconic dances in pop music history.

Beyonce and Jay-Z performed yesterday during the On the Run II Tour at the FedExField stadium in Washington, D.C. The singer wrote on Facebook: "DC, night one was amazing! Who's coming to the second show?"

Last night Beyonce and Jay-Z kicked off the US leg of the On the Run II Tour at the FirstEnergy Stadium in Cleveland, OH. Bey wore one new costume. She wrote: "Cleveland, what a great kickoff to the US leg of OTR II!"

Beyonce shared tons of personal photos from her stay in Europe. She wrote: "Thank you to Europe for the beautiful memories. It's been a pleasure being On The Run with our family, visiting so many incredible places, doing what we love with who we love. We can't wait to come back . Love, The Carters"

Now that Beyoncé and JAY-Z have wrapped up the European leg of their On The Run II tour, it's time for them to head on over to North America! American fans are in for a socially political treat, because Bey and Jay are incorporating the power of the vote into their concert.

That's right, fans will get to register to vote at every OTR II show!

This voting registration initiative is especially timely, given the conversations on both sides of the aisle about just how significant the 2018 elections will be.

Before last night's show in Cleveland, Beyonce and Jay-Z practiced "Apeshit" at the stadium!

It was all about family time - and then alone time - for Beyoncé and Jay-Z on Tuesday, as they took to the seas around Capri, Italy, for a sun-drenched afternoon in the sunshine.

With their three children with them - Blue Ivy, six, and twins Rumi and Sir, one - the Carter family were seen hanging out by the on-board hot tub, and enjoying quality time as a family over lunch.

Apparently shutting down one epicenter of cultural history was not enough for Beyoncé, because she is now reportedly trying to film something at the Colosseum. You know, the ancient Roman landmark where gladiators once dueled to the death some 2,000 years ago? Yep, that Colosseum.

According to Italian newspaper Il Messaggero, Beyoncé has put in a request to film something at the Colosseum (it's not yet clear what). She initially requested to book the amphitheater on July 7 and July 8, when she and Jay-Z were in town for their On the Run II tour, but was reportedly rejected by Italy’s Ministry of Cultural Heritage because Italian scientist Alberto Angela already had it reserved. Il Messaggero also notes her request was too last minute, as the Colosseum is “a very complicated place.” (Closing down the Louvre to shoot "Apes--t," on the other hand? A total breeze.)

But Beyoncé, being Beyoncé, is not ready to throw in the towel, and has reportedly resubmitted her request, which is currently under review.

It's worth mentioning she has filmed at the Colosseum before (remember that Pepsi commercial with Britney Spears and Pink?), so if the timing is right, it seems like things will be a go. Block out your Saturday nights for another surprise!

Beyonce was photographed yesterday at the Michelangelo Restaurant in Antibes, France.

Last night Beyonce and Jay-Z performed during the On the Run II Tour at the Allianz Riviera stadium in Nice, France. The European leg of the tour is now over! The singer wrote after the show: "Nice, thank you for a great finale! We're off to the US for the second leg of OTR II!"
