When in Cuba! Beyonce shimmy and shakes her way across

She invented the word 'bootylicious' with her Destiny Child bandmates and has proved on more than one occasion that she is just that.
And it seems Beyonce just can't help showing off her sexy side, even while she's on a relaxing holiday with her husband Jay Z.
The superstar was spotted burning up the dance floor in a club in Cuba, showing off her previously unseen salsa moves.

Party spirit: Beyonce looked like she was really enjoying herself as she took to the dance floor

 

Looking low-key but stunning the mother-of-one wore a chic blazer over her short dress which left her shapely legs on display.
Her hair was piled atop her head in the style she sported throughout her entire trip in Cuba.
Her dance floor antics occurred on the same trip where she was spotted amongst a throng of scantily-clad showgirls at the historic Tropicana club in Havana.
With their colourful sequins and feathers, the dancers -  known collectively as Las Diosas de Carne (Flesh Goddesses) - might have upstaged Beyonce in the wardrobe department but not even there extravagant costumes managed to stop the songstress from taking centre stage.

The mother-of-one and her husband Jay-Z, 43, were pictured gamely joining in the fun, as a club-full of star-struck revellers look on.
An onlooker who was at the venue told MailOnline how the famous couple - who were in Cuba to celebrate their fifth wedding anniversary - snuck into the club after dining out at La Guarida restaurant earlier on Wednesday night.
The pair took a front row seat and watched the cabaret performance while guzzling on champagne and Cuba Libre cocktails.
The onlooker told MailOnline: 'Jay Z puffed on a couple of cigars while Beyonce nodded her head smiling at the dancers.'

But it wasn't long before their presence became known.
'Jay was caught off guard when a scantily-clad dancer with a chandelier on her head came and danced right behind him.
'Beyonce looked a little taken aback... Then at the end of the show the dancers flooded off the stage and danced around their table, evidently so excited to see them.
'Beyonce and Jay then got up and danced with the dancers to the Cuban music.'

Eventually the pair's security team had to intervene and ushered them upstairs to a less public table as revellers and dancers surrounded them.
But the club-goer added: 'Beyonce and Jay were in great spirits the whole night, and continued to dance and pose for photos.'
While Beyonce certainly looked like she was having a holiday of a life time with Jay Z, the trip has come under fire from numerous public figures.
Actress Stacey Dash is the latest to blast them for supporting a 'communist oppressive regime', tweeting: 'Do you care that The Jay Z"s have taken the capital you have given them and funded a communist oppressive regime?'
On Monday it was reported how their trip has angered two Cuban-American politicians who are demanding information on whether the couple's visit to the communist island was licensed.

U.S. Reps. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Mario Diaz-Balart of Florida have written to the U.S. Department of Treasury expressing concern about the trip. In the letter, both said they represent a community that has been 'deeply and personally harmed by the Castro regime's atrocities.'
'The restrictions on tourism travel are commonsense measures meant to prevent U.S. dollars from supporting a murderous regime that opposes U.S. security interests at every turn and which ruthlessly suppresses the most basic liberties of speech, assembly and belief,' the GOP lawmakers wrote.
John Sullivan, a Treasury spokesman in Washington, said he could not comment on specific licences. He said the agency was working on a response to the letter from Ros-Lehtinen and Diaz-Balart.
