— -- Beyonce, Fergie and Justin Timberlake were among the stars celebrating the United States women's soccer team's World Cup victory on Sunday.

The United States beat Japan 5-2 to win their third World Cup title and first since 1999.

Beyonce led the way for stars celebrating the win on social media. The singer posted a photo of her wearing a soccer jersey with "Yonce" on the back while watching the game on TV. She simply captioned the snap, "U.S.A."

Her daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, with husband Jay Z, also got in on the action. Beyonce showed off her daughter's soccer jersey with her initials "BIC" on the back.

Fergie showed off her own jersey with her name on the back, as well as a bit more, in an "impromptu" photo shoot after the game.

"CONGRATS TEAM USA on winning the WOMEN's WORLDCUP! Impromptu photoshoot with my friends," the Black Eyed Peas singer wrote on Instagram.

Justin Timberlake sent out a cheer on Twitter.

USA! USA! USA!!!!!!! #USWNT
