Beyonce's Super Bowl Performance Raises Illuminati Conspiracy Theory

Feb 04, 2013 01:51 PM EST

Beyonce's Super Bowl performance pretty much took over the social media world, but more importantly, it may have revealed her involvement in a powerful secret society known as the Illuminati.

According to legend, the Illuminati are a tiny, super-secret society of influential individuals who've shaped the course of world events. As far as the internet is concerned, the star flashed an unmistakable symbol during her sexy half-time show.

Beyonce's illuminati sign was a clear indicator to some of her involvement as it makes sense for them to use one of the world's most high-profile performers at one of the world's most high-profile events to help spread their message, but at the same time conceal their existence and massive international operations.

Still not all those in the social media world bought into the that theory, as some pointed out a potential hole in it.

Real fans of Beyonce believe her gesture was more likely meant to mean something else, something with a little more background information. It's public knowledge that Beyonce is married to rapper Jay-Z, mogul and head of Roc-A-Fella records.

Some viewers put speculation to the side and justified Beyonce's gestures as a sign of support to her husband, who also uses the diamond as a symbol.

Despite rumors of Illuminati symbols and her performance having something to do with the Superdome lights going out early in the third quarter, Beyoncé's performance was well-received by critics and music writers all around.

"It was the highlight of a Super Bowl broadcast that was full of bizarro musical moments," Rolling Stone music writer, Rob Sheffield, wrote. "The actual game wasn't bad, either. Sorry, 49ers. But there's no question who the night belonged to: Beyoncé."

Here is what spectators were saying Twitter before Beyonce took the stage:
