Beyoncé kicks off Cowboy Carter Tour with daughters Blue Ivy and Rumi
Beyoncé brought the rodeo to Los Angeles on Monday for the opening night of her Cowboy Carter Tour, with a flying red convertible, mechanical bull riding, a prop big rig — and appearances by daughters Blue Ivy and Rumi Carter.
Blue Ivy was back among the dance crew, hitting the stage for "Ya Ya," "Sweet Honey Buckiin'" and other songs alongside her mom at Inglewood's SoFi Stadium. The 13-year-old made her debut as a dancer at the Renaissance World Tour in 2023.
This year, Rumi also made a guest appearance and joined Beyoncé and Blue Ivy on stage for "Protector." Video showed the 7-year-old smiling and waving at the crowd.
One fan wrote in a post on X that it was the "best part of the show."
Los Angeles kicked off night one of Beyoncé's tour. Parkwood Entertainment, a record label and entertainment company founded by the singer, said in a post on X early Tuesday morning that it was a sold-out show.
Hours before the show, however, tickets remained up for grabs and dipped as low as $57.50.
Beyoncé has four more shows in Los Angeles before moving on to Chicago. The tour wraps in July in Las Vegas.
The album "Cowboy Carter" was released in March 2024 and features collaborations with Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, Post Malone, Miley Cyrus, Shaboozey and others. It made history when it reached No. 1 on Top Country Albums, making the singer the first Black woman to ever lead the list, according to Billboard.
At the Grammy Awards this year, she won album of the year, best country album, and best country duo performance with Miley Cyrus.

Beyonce fans camp in tents outside Tottenham Stadium ahead of Cowboy Carter tour
Beyoncé's performances at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium kick off tonight – and fans have been camping out all day in preparation. The Grammy Award-winning musician will perform six shows at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium starting on June 5. The dates are her first UK shows since her Renaissance World Tour in 2023. After tonight, Beyoncé will go on to perform on June 7, 10, 12, 14, and 16, following a string of dates across America, where she will perform tracks from her eighth studio album. While the stadium is set to open its doors to 62,000 fans shortly, some are worried about the rainy conditions. Others are metaphorically and literally preparing to dance in the rain, with many fans literally camping out in preparation. A TikTok posted by user Paolatravell shows countless fans in tents around the venue as early as 4am this morning. The show is set to go ahead regardless of the weather, something one American fan claimed is actually lucky. Fan Madeline DeFreece, who managed to not only survive the rain, but claimed it added to the show, told Metro: 'This show was meant to be performed in the rain. The way the fabric moved on the contemporary dancers — I could not imagine it any differently.' She continued: 'At one point the cowboys had a Magic Mike moment, thrusting the floor of the stage and immediately I turned to my friend and said, 'We are so privileged to be in such a time and place.' I mean it was hot and provocative in a way that I don't think Beyoncé nor her team planned for.' More Trending Madeline also added: 'I'd pay to see it again, I'd pay even more to see it again in the rain.' To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Blue Ivy has become a firm fixture of Beyoncé's dance crew, but the sight of rarely-seen Rumi hugging her mum on stage has reduced fans to tears during the tour's run. During her first appearance on opening night at the Los Angeles SoFi Stadium, the tot walked on in a gold dress with Beyoncé, who wore glittering gold and green plaid chaps and bodysuit, and her sister during the song, Protector. It's unclear if Rumi will be taking to the stage tonight, but rest assured the event will still be a family affair with Blue Ivy putting in a shift as a dancer. Got a story?

Chris Hughes nuzzles JoJo Siwa's neck in public lovefest
Days after hard launching their relationship, Chris Hughes and JoJo Siwa have been spotted getting cosy in the Cotswolds. Chris, 32, was photographed nuzzling the 22-year-old's neck, and the couple were seen walking hand in hand as they strolled through the countryside. According to one insider, the pair are in the UK visiting Chris's mum and dad, who have been rather taken by the Dance Moms star. A source said: 'JoJo and Chris are absolutely loved-up. Meeting the parents is a big step, but she charmed everyone.' The meeting comes just days after JoJo confirmed that she and Chris were in a relationship during an interview with Capital Radio. She told them, 'I'm sure it's no secret to people, I am in a lovely relationship with a sweet boy named Christopher Hughes.'

Since that announcement, she went on to tell Billboard that Chris is one of the most important people in her life, going so far as to say she would die for him. 'It blows my mind that 30 days ago, I would have never even imagined that I'd be friends with Chris Hughes,' she explained. ' 'Like that is the weirdest thing,' she continued. 'Much less be one of the closest people to me now in my life, who I would die for, you know what I mean?' Speaking to The Guardian, she would later say, 'I'm absolutely head over heels for him and he's the same way.' The pair met while they were taking part in Celebrity Big Brother this April and formed a close bond after Chris defended JoJo from fellow housemate Mickey Rourke's homophobic comments. Following that incident, the pair were inseparable in the house, leading viewers to speculate that they were more than friends. After the show ended, JoJo allegedly ended her relationship with girlfriend Kathy Ebbs at the after party, and the pair have been seen together in the UK and the US. On the most recent episode of Sunday Brunch, JoJo admitted that the Love Island star had even been over to meet her parents. More Trending She said, 'She (her mother Jessalynn) does love him. My parents think the absolute world of him, and he and my dad are like best friends'. 'Honestly, it makes me happy to have everybody act as… it feels like we're a family, it feels like he's been in my family for however many years it feels like forever. 'He gets along as well as I do. I think he loves me because of my parents!' Meanwhile, during a recent appearance on This Morning, Chris was quizzed on his preferred name for the new power couple, where he admitted he was partial to 'CoJo'. Got a story?
