Beyoncé is said to have spent $14,000 (£9,000) during a 90-minute shopping spree on London's Oxford Street on Wednesday.

The 'Best Thing I Never Had' star and mother Tina Knowles spent thousands of dollars in shops such as Topshop and Selfridges where she is said to have stocked up on shoes, clothes and accessories, according to The Sun.

"It was like that shopping scene out of Pretty Woman. Everyone was gobsmacked at the speed she was choosing clothes," a source told the publication.

"When she hit the shoe section she picked up even more speed. The woman clearly loves footwear."

Beyoncé's newest LP 4 recently spent its second week at the top of the US album chart.

The singer was in the UK for a headlining performance at the T in the Park festival, where she reportedly used an oxygen mask to help her through her high-energy set.
