Benevolent angel Beyoncé shone her light on a group of young girls Saturday night, when she surprised them backstage after a performance at the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater in Los Angeles.

Beyoncé came out in support of her mother Tina Lawson, who was at the performance with the young women in her mentorship group, Tina's Angels.

"Backstage after the Alvin Ailey dancers performance it was magnificent," Lawson captioned a photo taken backstage. "With my beautiful Tina's Angels and with a few of the mentors. My very gracious daughter who met the girls and spent some time with them and made their day!"

The musician also posed for photos with Alvin Ailey dancers, and thanked them for their talent.

Beyoncé, who is pregnant with twins, seems set to take a lower profile in coming months. She recently cancelled plans to headline this year's Coachella Music Festival with the promise to appear in 2018.
