Beyoncé's outrageously successful year may have left the musical diva feeling godly.


While visiting Miami's South Beach, Queen Bey posted several Instagram photos[1] , with one standing out among the rest. The 32-year-old singer sat centered in front of a painting that resembled Leonardo DaVinci's "The Last Supper" depicting Jesus' last meal with his disciples before the cruxifiction.


Sitting directly in front of Jesus at the center of the table, the "Bow Down" singer can be seen wearing a tight green pencil skirt and bustier as she looks over her shoulder and stares into the distance.


Critics immediately began commenting on the photo, with several calling her "Beysus."


"Set the picture of the Last Supper behind her. I think she's going a little too far and her head is getting a little too big," @mami8308 wrote[2] .

"Looks like the Last Supper, instead of Jesus its Beyoncé. Ummm epic fail boo," @deasiray wrote[4] . "Jesus Christ is my savior, not you. Besides that, I love Beyoncé, but you will never be God."


The "Drunk in Love" singer celebrated a last supper of her own not too long ago as she and husband Jay Z completed a 22-day vegan challenge.


The couple began their dietary test on Dec. 3 and were determined to see it through, although there were no certainties as to what would follow.


"One day before my 44th birthday I will embark on a 22 Days challenge to go completely vegan, or as I prefer to call it, plant-based!!" the rapper wrote in a blog post on his Life + Times website[5] .


'Ran into the incredible @Beyonce & @Jay-Z post Dolphin game @ Sea Salt on the Miami River, sweet, Em was catatonic!' Gloria Estefan tweeted.

"I don't know what happens after Christmas," he confessed. "A semi-vegan, a full plant-based diet? Or just a spiritual and physical challenge? We'll see."

Days after the holiday passed, Beyoncé and Jay Z ditched the greens for some seafood as they dined at Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen in Norcross, Ga., a source told E! News[7] .


The town was a pit stop on the way to Miami where Beyoncé took the controversial Instagram pic. The couple also posed for a snapshot with Miami Queen Gloria Estefan and her family.


"Ran into the incredible @Beyoncé & @Jay-Z post Dolphin game @Sea Salt on the Miami River, sweet, Em was catatonic!" the "Conga" singer tweeted along with the photo[8] .

The eatery Estefan was referring to was another seafood restaurant at which Beyoncé and Jay Z dined, Seasalt and Pepper.


Another challenge Beyoncé has faced is the controversy over her new song "XO" and the 6-second audio sample from the Jan. 28, 1986 Space Shuttle Challenger disaster.

The love song begins with the former NASA Public Affairs Officer Steven Nesbitt saying, "Fight controllers here looking very carefully at the situation. Obviously a major malfunction," before the beat drops.


The victims' families were not happy about the singer's choice, but Beyoncé immediately tried to rectify the situation by offering condolences and an explanation behind her creative choice.


"My heart goes out to the families of those lost in the Challenger disaster," she said in a statement to ABC News[10] .


"The song 'XO' was recorded with the sincerest intention to help heal those who have lost loved ones and to remind us that unexpected things happen, so love and appreciate every minute that you have with those who mean the most to you," she further explained.


But her words may not have been enough as a NASA spokeswoman said in a statement to the Daily News[11] , "The Challenger accident is an important part of our history; a tragic reminder that space exploration is risky and should never be trivialized."
