Fans on night one of Beyoncé's 'Cowboy Carter' tour
USA TODAY's Beyoncé reporter Caché McClay spoke to fans on night one of the 'Cowboy Carter' tour.
Beyoncé performed her fourth Los Angeles show on her Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin Circuit Tour.
She added throwback songs to her set list, including "Irreplaceable," "Single Ladies" and "Love on Top."
The updated setlist, first introduced on May 1st, also featured a mash-up of "Tyrant" (2024) and "Haunted" (2013).
Beyoncé Knowles-Carter took the stage in Los Angeles for night four of her Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin Circuit Tour, and once again, she added some of her beloved throwbacks to the massive set list.
Beyoncé put on a stellar performance at SoFi Stadium on May 7 for her lucky No. 4 show, as she sang songs from her "Cowboy Carter" album, "Renaissance" project and classic hits, similar to night two and three of her tour.
The change first came at Beyoncé's second show on May 1. During it, she moved some songs around and added songs like "Irreplaceable" (2006), "If I were A Boy" (2008), "Single Ladies" (2008) and "Love on Top" (2011).
Fans watching online and inside the stadium seemed pleasantly surprised with the changes and wondered if she might keep the new set list for the duration of shows in Los Angeles or how often she might change it. And she kept those tunes coming for a third time in a row.
One fan also took note of a particular mash-up, where Beyoncé mixed her 2024 song "Tyrant" with her 2013 tune "Haunted."
Of course, the Grammy-winning singer debuted her Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin Circuit Tour at SoFi Stadium in Los Angles on April 28 with 39 songs on the set list. Her second and third show took place May 1 and May 4 on the same stage. The groundbreaking concert proved to be spectacle of many things including fashion, different music genres and most notably country music and politics.
As fans know, Beyoncé first released the 27-track project in March 2024. It has since made history and broken multiple records. As Beyoncé's first country album, she deliberately featured country legends and emerging Black country artists alike. She became the first Black woman to win best country album at the 2025 Grammys and also took home album of the year.
The nine-city tour will span the U.S. and Europe with the grand finale taking place in Las Vegas on July 26. She's set to make history again with her scheduled tour dates, including by playing the most dates at SoFi Stadium of any artist.

You need to see these 'Reacher' season 4 set photos — Alan Ritchson's new love interest revealed
"Reacher" is undeniably one of the biggest hits for Prime Video. The first three seasons have been critically and commercially successful for the streaming service — I loved season 3 when I reviewed it here at Tom's Guide — and it wasn't surprising when the show was officially renewed for season 4. Now, with production in full swing, we've gotten a first look at a major cast member. Via @rikiwichman, a fan account on Instagram, we finally got a first look at Sydelle Noel, who has joined the "Reacher" season 4 cast as Tamara Green. They initially posted the announcement back on June 18 when Noel was officially added to the cast, but revised the post yesterday (Aug. 11), complete with new set photos of Noel as Green (via Getty Images). A post shared by Riki Wichman (@rikiwichman) A photo posted by on The set photos of Sydelle smartly dressed in a professional yet functional outfit don't reveal much about her character, but her character's name reveals everything. That's because Tamara Green was originally Theresa Lee, and that means she's Alan Ritchson's love interest for season 4. For those less familiar with "Reacher," they're based on the "Jack Reacher" novel series by Lee Child, and that means if we know what book a season is based on, then we know a decent amount about what to expect from a given season. We know season 4 is based on the novel "Gone Tomorrow," thanks to an Alan Ritchson post on Instagram a few months ago. And in that installment of the series, Jack Reacher's love interest is none other than NYPD detective Theresa Lee. A post shared by Alan Ritchson (@alanritchson) A photo posted by on That makes this first look a pretty major one for "Reacher" season 4, as past love interests — Roscoe Conklin (Willa Fitzgerald), Serinda Swan (Karla Dixon) and Susan Duffy (Sonya Cassidy) — all played major roles in their given seasons, arguably costarring alongside Ritchson. So definitely don't expect this to be the last you see of Tamara Green between now and the "Reacher" season 4 release on Prime Video. So far, we know that "Reacher" season 4 will bring back Alan Ritchson as the titular, mammoth Jack Reacher, a former U.S. Army military police major whose skills allow him to solve any case and kick any butt. We also know that season 4 will be adapting "Gone Tomorrow," which has Reacher drawn into a deadly game against dangerous people after a fraught, chance encounter with a stranger on a train.

Only Ritchson as Reacher and Maria Sten as Frances Neagley have appeared in all three seasons to date. Of course, we know Noel will be a major part of the season 4 cast as Reacher's love interest, Green, but we also know a few other cast members joining this season. Christopher Rodriguez-Marquette is playing Jacob Merrick, a small-town police officer with a big role in season 4. Jay Baruchel was originally cast as Merrick but had to leave for personal reasons. Rodriguez-Marquette, Ritchson and Noel are joined by Agnez Mo and Anggun as Lila and Amisha Hoth, who we are expecting to be the villains this season. Kevin Corrigan is playing Green's partner, NYPD Detective Docherty, Marc Blucas is politician John Samson and Kathleen Robertson is his wife, Elsbeth. Kevin Weisman is also on board as Russell Plum, the lone character that, as far as we can tell, isn't in the novel "Gone Tomorrow." The big question that remains? Will Sten return for a fourth season as Neagley? I hope so, but there's nothing official yet. She might be too busy with her "Reacher" spin-off, "Neagley," which is currently in production. Malcolm has been with Tom's Guide since 2022 and has been covering the latest in streaming shows and movies since 2023. He's not one to shy away from a hot take, including that "John Wick" is one of the four greatest films ever made. Here's what he's been watching lately:

'Superman' is soaring into homes with a digital release. Here's when.
After soaring through theaters, DC Studios' Superman will soon land on TV screens with the digital release of the superhero's namesake film nearing. Written and directed by James Gunn, "Superman" introduces a new Man of Steel in David Corenswet but also launches a rebooted DC movie universe.

The movie also begins after Superman ignites an international incident by stopping a war from breaking out between the fictional neighboring nations Boravia and Jarhanpur. "When Superman is drawn into conflicts both abroad and at home, his actions to protect humankind are questioned, and his vulnerability allows tech billionaire and master deceiver Lex Luthor to leverage the opportunity to get Superman out of the way for good," the film's synopsis says. Stream 'Superman' USA TODAY's Brian Truitt gave the film ★★★½ out of four, writing "the poppy, satisfying adventure succeeds on both fronts with the best Supes since Christopher Reeve." "The movie features pervasive positivity, one really cool canine and a bright comic book aesthetic," Truitt wrote in his review. "And while this fresh superhero landscape is extremely busy and a little bit familiar, it also feels lived-in and electric."

Dean Cain hits back at John Oliver in growing feud over decision to join ICE
Forget Lex Luther, "Superman" star Dean Cain has a new foe: John Oliver. After the political satirist used part of his Sunday show to blast Cain's recent decision to join the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, the actor hit back, accusing the comedian of plagiarizing his jokes. Responding to a clip from Oliver's show, Cain wrote in an Aug. 11 post to X: "He stole that mask joke from the internet – and he also laughed hysterically when Trump said he was going to run for President. Case closed." During his show, which focused on the larger impacts of President Donald Trump's mass deportation campaign, Oliver, referring to a growing practice of ICE agents donning face coverings during raids, quipped: "No need for that guy to wear a mask because the chances of anyone recognizing him are … zero." John Leguizamo blasts Dean Cain after Superman actor reveals ICE employment John Oliver ribs Dean Cain 'The Dog Who Saved Christmas' movies Oliver didn't stop his career criticism there. He went on to argue that Cain's decision to join ICE should raise alarm bells for the agency. "Now, I'm not saying that ICE isn't finding people," Oliver joked. "I'm just saying, when you are reduced to pinning a badge on the 59-year-old star of 'The Dog Who Saved Christmas,' 'The Dog Who Saved Christmas Vacation,' 'The Dog Who Saved the Holidays,' 'The Dog Who Saved Halloween,' 'The Dog Who Saved Easter' and 'The Dog Who Saved Summer,' maybe you are in trouble." Every Superman actor, ranked (from David Corenswet to Christopher Reeve) Cain, who announced his decision to join ICE earlier this month, pushed back on criticism of the canine franchise, adding in his post: "and those movies were sweet, by the way!" Cain, who played Superman in the 1990s series "Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman," revealed to fans that he enlisted as an ICE in an Aug. 5 video shared to his social media channels. "For those who don't know, I am a sworn law enforcement officer, as well as being a filmmaker, and I felt it was important to join with our first responders to help secure the safety of all Americans, not just talk about it," he said. "So, I joined up." In a statement to USA TODAY on Aug. 7, ICE Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin confirmed that Cain will be sworn in as an honorary officer "in the coming month." "Superman is encouraging Americans to become real-life superheroes by answering their country's call to join the brave men and women of ICE to help protect our communities to arrest the worst of the worst," McLaughlin said. The move comes on the heels of Cain's harsh criticism of the new "Superman" movie starring David Corenswet. The actor called the new movie, which portrays the superhero as an empathetic foil to Luther's money-hungry tech bro, "woke" in an interview with TMZ. "James Gunn and his decision to make Ma and Pa Kent the stupid rednecks. That's a choice," Cain added in a separate interview on "Piers Morgan Uncensored," taking aim at the movie's director. "Superman has to be saved, like, repeatedly? Look, don't try and make it all woke and crazy," he said. "Keep that character as the way I like him, as true justice and the American way."
