It’s not easy: Beyonce spotted in rehearsal, make-up less, worn out but still SEXY (PHOTOS)

It looks like the stress of the past few weeks along with looking after baby Blue Ivy may be getting to Beyonce.

The 31-year-old star looked tired and wan as she arrived to rehearse for her Super Bowl performance in New Orleans earlier this week.

Wearing no make-up and a woolly hat, the singer looked a far cry from her usual glamorous self.

The singer was accompanied by her mother Tina Knowles, who looked more glamorous than her daughter in a bright turquoise top.

There was no sign of Beyonce’s husband Jay-Z or their one-year-old daughter as the star prepared for her latest rehearsal.

Beyonce recently opened up about how motherhood has changed her. She told GQ magazine: ‘Giving birth made me realise the power of being a woman. I have so much more substance in my life.

‘And expressing that excitement and that sensuality and the connection I have with my husband — I’m a lot more comfortable with that now. I actually feel like my child introduced me to myself.’

Meanwhile, the singer is gearing up to perform in front of millions around the world on Sunday at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.

The singer will be hoping to put the recent lip syncing controversy of her Inauguration performance behind her by putting on a dazzling show.

She was accused of miming the National Anthem at President Obama’s inauguration ceremony, when a spokesman for the Marine Corps Band said she opted for a pre-recorded track of the song instead of singing live.

But hours later, a Marine spokesman backed off the claim and insisted he didn’t know one way or the other: ‘No one in the Marine Band is in a position to assess whether it was live or pre-recorded’.

Meanwhile, Beyonce is already stirring up a frenzy of anticipation for Sunday’s show.

She has posted several pictures of herself in rehearsal via her Instagram site, including a snap of her sporting a sweatshirt with the slogan: ‘Can I Live,’ with a seemingly pointed reference to the allegations.

Another picture shows her stretching and limbering up, wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the name of Jay-Z’s basketball team, the Brooklyn Nets.

There was also a black and white wide shot of all her backup dancers in position.

Meanwhile, amid swirling rumours, her Destiny’s Child band-mate Michelle Williams recently denied that Beyonce would be reuniting with with the band for the show

Michelle, 32, told WRUG Media: ‘I’m going to be in the musical Fela! I hate to disappoint the people and tell them that it’s not true.’

The singer is headlining a world tour of the Tony Award-winning show, which kicks off Tuesday in Washington, D.C.

But according to the show’s website, she will intriguingly not be appearing in the show that day.

‘I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry,’ Williams said of the reunion rumours. ‘But we did record a song with each other before the holidays.’

Destiny’s Child – Love Songs, a greatest hits compilation of the group’s most romantic recordings will feature a new song, Nuclear – their first in eight years.

However, Michelle did hint that a reunion outside the recording studio may still happen, saying: ‘We have talked about it. You know, one day soon.’
