Beyoncé hasn't been to the Golden Globes for more than 10 years. 

So viewers at home were more than a little surprised when she suddenly appeared on their television screens on Sunday night. 

Just as Ellen DeGeneres headed to the stage to accept the Carol Burnett award, Beyoncé and her husband Jay-Z could be seen standing up and clapping. 

Fans quickly took to Twitter to express their shock, almost wondering if they had seen a mirage. 

But Beyoncé was in fact at the show, rocking a black gown with large puffy golden sleeves. 

She was later seen sitting down, with Jay-Z alongside her, and smiling during the show.

The star arrived at the show at the beginning of Ellen's tribute award, according to Variety's Ramin Setoodeh. 

Los Angeles Times reporter Amy Kaufman also spotted the power couple entering the show, and noticed that their bodyguard appeared to be carrying two bottles of alcohol. 

Twitter commenters noted that the bottles appeared to be Ace of Spades champagne, which is partially owned by Jay-Z. 

It was actually revealed on the Golden Globes Instagram live feed that Beyoncé was going to be seated at DeGeneres' table on Sunday night. 

"Ellen DeGeneres is getting the Carol Burnett award and we always want to make sure people are sitting together that like each other, she picked Beyoncé as her guest," said a Golden Globes spokeswoman. 

Beyoncé was also a nominee this year, receiving her second Golden Globes nomination for best original song with the tune "Spirit" for "The Lion King." 

The last time Beyoncé was nominated, in 2009, was also the last time she appeared at the Golden Globes. 

Beyoncé and Jay-Z did not walk the red carpet this year, leading many fans to believe they had decided to skip the show. 

But their appearance on Sunday has clearly excited fans.
