This Clip of Blue Ivy Carter Bringing Out Towels to Dry the Stage Before Her Dance Is Going Viral
Blue Ivy Carter had another viral moment on her mom's Cowboy Carter Tour, and this time, it involved two towels. The 13-year-old stepped onstage during Beyoncé's very rainy May 28 show with the black towels in hand. She wiped the stage with them, tossed them aside, and, without missing a beat, nailed the elaborate choreography for 'America Has a Problem.' The footage is incredible:
Blue's grandmother Tina Knowles recently spoke to Extra about how Blue has evolved on tour. 'I just see the confidence grow every day,' Knowles marveled. 'You know, Blue is tall, she's like 5'9', and she's 13 years old, and it's great. I would always say, 'Stand tall because your grandma always wanted to be tall,' but she would still slump a little bit. But now we've got the model pose, and she's strutting, and she's confident. That's the most important thing to me.'
Knowles admitted that she still hopes Blue doesn't become a pop star, despite her talent. 'My wish for her is that I wish that she would do something else,' she said. 'I hope she doesn't go into entertainment just because I think it's a huge sacrifice. It's a huge sacrifice on your life, but if she chooses to do it, I'm going to be right up at front, screaming and cheering, but hopefully she'll choose something else.'
In September, Beyoncé spoke to GQ about how gifted her oldest daughter is. 'Blue is an artist,' the singer said. 'She has great taste in music and fashion. She is a fantastic editor, painter, and actress. She has been creating characters since she was three. She's a natural, but I did not want Blue onstage [on the Renaissance World Tour]. Blue wanted it for herself. She took it seriously and she earned it. And most importantly, she had fun! We all watched her grow more and more every night before our eyes.'

Dolly Parton Reveals What She Really Thought About Beyonce's ‘Completely Different' Cover of ‘Jolene'
Beyoncé reimagines Dolly Parton's iconic song "Jolene" on her 2024 Cowboy Carter album, transforming it from a plea into a powerful warning Dolly Parton praises Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter, calling the album 'really, really good' and expressing pride in the bold reinterpretation of her 1973 hit Parton appears twice on Cowboy Carter, including as a fictional radio DJ on the track "Dolly P" and in a cameo at the start of Beyoncé's song "Tyrant"Don't come for her man! Dolly Parton's 1973 hit, 'Jolene," has had Parton fans singing along for decades, but in 2024, Beyoncé put a modern spin on it. Beyoncé, 43, covered the song on her 2024 album Cowboy Carter, changing the tone and key lyrics of the song to serve as more of a warning instead of Parton's plea. For example, where Parton sings, 'I'm beggin' of you, please don't take my man,' Beyonce declares, 'I'm warning you, don't come for my man.' In an interview with PEOPLE tied to the release of her single-serve frozen meals with Conagra brands, Parton gushed about Beyoncé and her musical talent. 'I'm a huge fan of hers — I mean, who's not? Everybody loves her,' Parton said. 'I think she's a magnificent artist, beautiful and the dancing in addition to the singing.' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Parton called Cowboy Carter a 'really, really good album,' one that features two cameos from the Country Music Hall of Famer. Parton is heard in the track "Dolly P," in which she plays a fake radio DJ queuing up the next set of songs. The "9 to 5" singer also contributed to the song "Tyrant," which is featured later on the record. The 10th track on the album is Beyoncé's fiery rendition of 'Jolene,' which Parton loved. 'I was just honored that she, of course, did a completely different take on 'Jolene' than than my version of it," Parton tells PEOPLE. "Hers was more like, 'Well, you're not getting him, you're not taking him, you're going to go through me to get him.' Mine was more like, 'Please don't take him!' So I loved her interpretation." She continued, 'As a writer, you like to hear how different people interpret your songs, and how they put their own spin and do their own take on it. But I was very proud of it, and I hope her tour does great, and I'm sure it will. People seem to be loving it.' Beyoncé is currently on the road for the Cowboy Carter Tour, which is set to conclude on July 26, in Paradise, Nev. Read the original article on People

Pusha T On Current Relationship With Ye: 'I Don't Think He's A Man'
Clipse is gearing up for their first group release in over a decade with upcoming album, Let God Sort 'Em Out. During a promo discussion with GQ, Pusha T opened up about the state of his relationship with Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, after their business and personal relationship crumbled in late 2022. The interview comes days after Ye took to Twitter/X to declare, 'I miss me and Pusha's friendship.' According to Push, however, that won't be enough to bring the former collaborators back together. He starts by saying that his and Ye's friendship began to unravel long before the producer's 2022 anti-semitic rants put the nail in the coffin, admitting that, 'the last few months or years of his time with Kanye were him 'playing the industry game' more than anything.' 'I realized at certain points that I was really alone in everything that was going on as far as rap drama, so on and so forth,' Push shared. The rapper previously stated on The Joe Budden Podcast that Ye was iffy with his support of Pusha T in his battle with Drake. Push added that the energy within Ye's camp became concerning at one point. 'I'm in a collective of a lot of individuals. Everybody's working, but I really got sh*t to do, and I leave and it's one energy, and then when I come back, the energy's off. And then you hear about the sidebar conversations. You got your homeboy who coming up to you like, 'Yo, they was saying this when you left.' I'm thinking that we all in this collectively getting busy. But in all actuality, everybody had their own agendas. And I feel like I was the only one who didn't. My agenda was for the squad. So from that point on, I just looked at everybody differently, and I looked at it as, We're just going to make music. We're going to get beats. We're going to write some raps. And we going to keep it moving.' The Virginia MC added of Ye's most recent rant against him, 'It's like, bro, you've been mentioning me, screaming about me… you got every soul believing that I've done such a great injustice to you. And that's a lie. He goes on his rants. The one thing that I can say about him is that he knows that every issue that he's having and crying about online right now, I've told him distinctly about those things, distinctly. So when he gets up there and with his KKK mask and he's screaming behind it like a pro wrestler—he got to scream behind a mask. He don't talk to me like he talks to others. 'We made some great sh*t, bro. We did,' Pusha acknowledged. 'But…let me tell you something. He's a genius. And his intuition is even more genius level, right? But that's why me and him don't get along, because he sees through my fakeness with him. He knows I don't think he's a man. He knows it. And that's why we can't build with each other no more. That's why me and him don't click, because he knows what I really, really think of him. He's showed me the weakest sides of him, and he knows how I think of weak people.' Pusha was also able to acknowledge some good Ye has done, sharing, 'The greatest thing he did and why I am okay with where me and him are right now—and I'm cool with staying that way—is because at the end of the day, my truth is my truth, but I still respect what he did in the business. And he speaks ill about the music we've made and giving me certain records, but the one thing he did give me was all the profits back from the Def Jam deal.' Check out the full GQ interview here.

Yes, You Can Manifest Your Way To A Beyoncé Concert. I Did!
Like every other Beyoncé fan, the minute Cowboy Carter tickets dropped, I was ready to grab mine. But between high prices and the chaotic process of waiting forever in the digital queue, I had to cut my losses — or so I thought. Still, something in me refused to give up. I kept saying to myself (and honestly, to anyone who would listen), 'I will make it to this tour somehow. God is going to make a way.' I was putting all that energy into the universe and was in full blown manifestation mode. Fast forward a few weeks later, I was casually chatting with a coworker about Cowboy Carter, telling her how badly I wanted to go. And that's when she dropped the magic words: ' You know Flamingo has a suite, right? I can connect you.' When I tell you, I got chills! Just a few weeks prior, I had bought a Flamingo razor on a random errand run and now here was the universe (and Flamingo!) coming through with an invite to their suite for the concert. This is proof that dreams and manifestations do come true. ' This night was more than just another concert for me. It was a reminder that manifestation is real. sandy pierre ' Even better, Flamingo's new Anything But Dull campaign fits perfectly with the Cowboy Carter vibe. A week before the concert, they surprised us with a glam package stocked with goodies from their Glow Shave Collection, Body Moisture Trio, and Body Wax Kit. Self-care essentials to get us prepped and glowing for the big night. I'm not the only one who couldn't get Cowboy Carter tickets and relied on hopes and prayers to get them in the building. On TikTok, you'll find countless stories of Beyhive members who showed up to the stadium day of and made it inside. Even if you didn't find your way from the razor aisle to a suite at Metlife Stadium, there are ways to manifest an experience at the best tour of the year. Pro tip: check for tickets as close to show time as possible (you can even call to upgrade for cheap!) and be prepared to roll with whatever seats are available. The videos this trend has produced show the JOY that comes from scoring Beyoncé tickets, so even if Ticketmaster did you dirty, and you still don't have tickets for her upcoming dates, where there is a will there's a way. Thankfully for me, I didn't have to go through the stress of finding same-day tickets. I was able to wake up on the morning of Beyday knowing I was about to have an incredible night. Finding the perfect outfit became its own mission. All week, I scoured TikTok, Pinterest, and Instagram for inspiration. I knew I wanted a western vibe, which helped narrow my choices. My final look consisted of a cowboy hat, a graphic tank top reading "cool it cowboy," cow-print denim jeans, and a Levi's denim jacket to finish the look. On the day of the show, I linked up with the Flamingo team and fellow editors for a pre-game happy hour. Then we hopped on a party bus straight to MetLife Stadium. The vibes were already high, but walking into the Flamingo suite was next level. It was decked out with Beyoncé merch, more Flamingo treats, and the kind of energy you can only find at a Beyoncé concert. I spent the night singing my heart out to every song. This was my fifth time seeing Beyoncé live and somehow, she still manages to leave me in awe every time. The vocals, the visuals, and the performance were all impeccable, of course. It's Beyoncé! You feel her energy with every beat. Looking back, this night was more than just another concert for me. It was a reminder that manifestation is real, that sometimes the universe (with a little help from your favorite razor brand!) will meet you halfway. Beyoncé said it best: 'You won't break my soul' — and you won't break my belief in speaking things into existence, either.
