The best moment of Miss Universe 2017 didn’t happen on live TV.

Hours before the grand coronation on Sunday, Miss Netherlands Zoey Ivory couldn’t hold back when Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies” came over the speakers. She never quite fully commits to the routine, but you can tell she could break it off if she wanted to.

That Facebook video has received more than 30 million views, but this YouTube video from the rafters offers a much better vantage point.

Miss France ultimately won the crown, but Miss Netherlands would clearly prefer a ring anyways.
