Watch Beyoncé do a gender reveal for a fan mid-concert
Beyoncé is already creating memorable moments with her fans on her 'Cowboy Carter Tour.'
After kicking off her highly-anticipated event in late April, Beyoncé made a fan's day when she assisted them with their gender reveal on stage during her May 28 show.
'This is important. A once in a lifetime gender reveal,' she said while walking to the fan in the pouring rain at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. 'I have to take my time.'
In videos that were shared on X, Beyoncé is seen opening an envelope that someone gave her in the crowd.
While wearing a black jumpsuit that has the design of the American flag at the bottom, Bey struggled to open the envelope. However, after tussling with the package for a few seconds, she then managed to get it open.
'My hands are sticky,' she told the crowd.
Inside of the package was a piece of paper that read, 'COWBOY.' While showing the parcel, Beyoncé flashed a big smile on her face and said, 'It's a boy! God bless you. Congratulations! Thank you so much for letting me be a part of it.'
'I'm keeping this,' she jokingly added, while referring to the torn package.
Beyoncé's tour has been making headlines ever since she kicked off the event at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on April 28.
That night, she brought her daughters, Blue Ivy, 13, and Rumi, 7, with her on stage as she sang a couple of songs from her catalog.
Beyoncé shares her daughters and Rumi's twin brother, Sir, with her husband and music mogul, Jay-Z.
Beyoncé's 'Cowboy Carter' album helped the 'Crazy in Love' singer win her first album of the year award at the Grammys, as well as the Grammy for best country album.

Harry Potter reboot risks fan backlash over 'unexpected filming location'
Filming for the new Harry Potter reboot, which is being adapted for the small screen, is said to be underway, after the three main actors were announced last week Harry Potter reboot is said to be risking backlash from fans as the show films scenes in an "unexpected location". The HBO TV reboot is due to start filming in the Île de Sein off Brittany, despite the story being set in Britain. Producers have reportedly chosen the French location to set scenes for the hit where Hagrid appears to announce: "You're a wizard, Harry." However, the books detail that the hut is located on an island off Cornwall and not France. But, bosses are said to have chosen the different location to portray the iconic scene. However, it's been reported that some of the crew have found the choice amusing as they could've found a suitable place closer to home. The Sun reported that a TV insider said: "This caused a certain amount of amusement among the British crew who all agreed that they could have easily got windswept in virtually any part of the British Isles. They've been slightly bewildered by the fact they've actually gone to France to make a show which is so British — particularly since it's the first place they've gone to and they're doing key scenes there. "For fans it's likely to be a sign that with American producers running the show, it might not be as mindful of Harry Potter as a national treasure that shouldn't be tampered with." Around 30 people are said to be at Pointe du Raz on the west coast of Brittany and have been travelling by boat to the island each day. It's thought that there is a supposedly haunted 19th century lighthouse on the island which might be used as the hut in the TV series. The iconic Harry Potter franchise films were all made in the studio or on location in Britain. Locations such as London, Bath, Durham and the Scottish Highlands were used as filming locations. Warner Bros has invested millions in expanding its studio at Leavesden, near Watford for the filming on the TV reboot. This comes after it was announced last week which actors would be taking on the main three roles in the show - Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. Scottish actor Dominic McLaughlin would be taking on the lead role previously played in the movies by Daniel Radcliffe. He will be working alongside fellow rising stars Arabella Stanton as Hermione Granger and Alastair Stout as Ron Weasley. Hagrid, which was previously played by late actor Robbie Coltrane, will now be taken over by Nick Frost instead. Albus Dumbledore will be played by actor John Lithgow will be the wizard school's headmaster Albus Dumbledore and Paul Whitehouse will appear as Hogwarts' caretaker Argus Filch.

Lose yourself in luxury and experience how the other half live in plush new aparthotel The Other House
It has its very own spa to help you wind down and relax LONDON CALLING Lose yourself in luxury and experience how the other half live in plush new aparthotel The Other House YOU know you're moving up in the world when your hotel room has its own staircase. But then everything about The Other House in London's plush South Kensington district is next level. Advertisement 6 Entrance to The Other House in South Kensington 6 Experience how the other half live and spend the weekend in style The tremendous two-tier accommodation was right up there. Then there was the restaurant, member's lounge, library, bar, gym, and pool area that was top notch. The concept is that you're turning the key on a home-from-home when you step through the front door. Yet for most of us, this is a glimpse of how the other half live. Some of the suave and sophisticated clientele have long-term reservations over weeks and even months while others are there for a simple get-away break. Advertisement My wife Arleen and I spent two luxurious nights in the leafy west end property which was much, much more than we expected. Situated in SW7, The Other House is in one of the most desirable and affluent areas of the city. The millionaires and billionaires of Chelsea and Knightsbridge are literally just around the corner. But it's a great base to go out and explore the other parts of town. We headed to the big smoke from Glasgow and decided we'd let the train take the strain rather than fly. Pulling into Euston just four-and-a-half hours after we left Central Station, the journey was a breeze. Advertisement You may think the one-hour flight is quicker but once you factor in everything that goes with airports these days then it's definitely an option worth considering. After stepping off our carriage and onto the platform, we got a quick tube to Gloucester Road station, before a five minute walk had us checking in. The welcome we got was as warm and inviting as the plush decor. The adult-only Greek hotel with laid-back DJs and hidden beach Cocktails in the beautifully boutique Owl and Monkey bar were a treat — I recommend the pineapple and salted caramel caipirinha — with the tasting plate menu more than enough to keep you going. The next morning we ate breakfast in the funky The Other Kitchen with its American diner vibe. They serve food all day, from 7am until 6pm. Advertisement 'Think seasonal soups, hearty salads, signature sandwiches and sharing plates,' the website says. 6 The Other House's beautfiul Owl and Monkey cocktail bar So we booked a table for dinner on night two and were blown away. Throughout the week there are various incentives to stick around with Happy Hour drinks on Mondays and Tuesdays, a live DJ on Fridays and a Jazz Brunch every Sunday. It's as though they realise they have to make a big effort to get you out of your sumptuous room. Advertisement And that was true when it came to us. We'd booked a spacious Club Flat which had all mod-cons and high-end furnishings. GO: LONDON GGO: KENSINTON, LONDON Rooms at The Other House, South Kensington, start from £260 a night. See The open-plan kitchen/living room felt much larger than it actually was because of the vaulted ceiling. Thankfully, the curtains are controlled by an electric switch as there was no way anyone was reaching up high enough to close them manually. Upstairs, the bedroom was neat and there was plenty of wardrobe space and a designer en-suite bathroom with rain-shower as standard. Advertisement 6 Mezzanine Club Flat at The Other House The Other House architects really made the most of the space they had to work with in their no-expense-spared, multi-million pound redevelopment. It's the same downstairs in the opulent relaxing member's lounge and spa, where the swimming pool, sauna and steam room are there to help you unwind. And it was all very welcome after a day exploring London with all it has to see and do. We visited all the main tourist attractions and walked for miles but boy were we happy to come home to our Other House at the end of the day Advertisement 6 This gorgeous location has a breathtaking spa on the premises 6 Robert and wife Arleen at Buckingham Palace Keep up to date with ALL the latest news and transfers at the Scottish Sun football page

I was almost 50 when I had my first baby, people call me selfish and I've lost friends over it but older mums are better
Rene has had cruel comments from strangers and friends alike OH BABY I was almost 50 when I had my first baby, people call me selfish and I've lost friends over it but older mums are better WHEN Rene Byrd first held her baby boy, Crue, in her arms, she felt like life was finally complete. The Londoner had spent years battling infertility before deciding to undergo IVF – a journey that cost her over £20,000. Advertisement 4 Rene Byrd was 48 when she welcomed her first baby Credit: Jam Press/Rene Bryd 4 She says she has received plenty of criticism but believes older women make better mums Credit: Jam Press/Rene Bryd But Rene's struggle didn't stop other parents from judging her for becoming a mum later in life. The singer-songwriter was met with cruel 'jokes' after telling people she'd given birth at 48. She's also lost friends since having a baby. Although the comments stung, Rene says she is determined to ignore the negativity and finally embrace motherhood. Advertisement 'I had people making [say things like], 'You'll be old when your child grows up',' she said 'People have told me it's selfish. 'They say it jokingly, but you know they're not joking. 'It can make you feel guilty, but I just want to be the best mum I can be. Advertisement 'You do question yourself – am I too old? 'Some people in my life dropped off after I had [my son] Reality TV star reveals she's pregnant with second baby just months after admitting marriage was 'lowest it's ever been' 'I have a friend I don't even see anymore. 'Some relationships dissolved.' Advertisement Rene had always dreamed of becoming a mum, but life didn't exactly go to plan. Rene met her now-husband, 42-year-old American attorney Demetrious, by chance in a London bar. Aware of her biological clock, the pair started trying for a baby in 2017 when Rene was 40. She even spent about £2,000 on Chinese herbal remedies and fertility tonics to help her get pregnant. Advertisement But after a year of trying, Rene realised that starting a family wouldn't be as easy as she'd hoped. She said: 'We tried to conceive naturally, but my age was always a factor. 'The panic starts to set in – you realise time is slipping away. 'I spent a couple of grand on different tonics overseas – anything that looked like it could help. Advertisement 'It was getting me down. 'I knew my window was closing. 'Eventually, I accepted that it probably wasn't going to happen without some assistance.' Rene and Demetrious eventually decided to explore IVF in a bid to start their dream family. Advertisement The couple spent a few years researching treatments and clinics before taking the leap. Following a rough IVF journey – Rene described the procedure as 'invasive' – she found out she was pregnant in April 2024, just a few months after the couple got married. She said: 'I didn't realise just how emotional it would be. 'There's so much uncertainty. Advertisement 'So many tests – you're constantly putting your body through it. 'I had an underlying condition that was a big factor. 'They check all your hormones, and, as women, there are so many to track. 'You have to do regular blood tests, and they expire after a certain time, so you're constantly redoing them. Advertisement 'Emotionally, it was draining, and I wasn't sure if it would even work. 'Financially, it was a huge strain – in total, it cost over £20,000.' Rene can recall the moment she learned she was pregnant. She said: They told me I needed to do a beta test – it looks at hormone levels in your blood to confirm pregnancy. Advertisement 'I went in that morning, and the lady from the clinic started crying. The struggle of choosing a baby name CHLOE Morgan, a Senior Writer at Fabulous, has revealed her dilemma on choosing a baby name... At 35 weeks pregnant, by far the trickiest part of pregnancy for me in the past few months (minus the insomnia and countless night-time wee breaks!) has been trying to decide on a baby name. The dilemmas are endless... My partner and I went for a private scan to find out the gender as early as we could - partly due to the fact we thought it would make baby naming so much easier because we'd only have to come up with a list of names for one gender rather than two. How wrong we were... I was absolutely thrilled to be told I was expecting the baby girl I'd already dreamed of, but being one of the last of my friends to fall pregnant, I've had countless conversations over the years with excited pals discussing their top baby which I wish I could go back in time and un-hear. With each friend mentioning at least 10 possible monikers, I can't help but feel like several are now a no-go even though I know it's something that none of them would mind in the slightest - it's a total me problem! The debate comes up time and time again on social media forums - can you choose the same name that was a "potential" for a friend's baby? It's a very divisive topic and opinions are always I don't want to be THAT person. While some will argue there's thousands of other names out there to choose from, others will say you need to choose YOUR all, there's no guarantee that person will even have another baby. Then there's also the issue of finding a name you to research it online and read one negative comment amongst hundreds of positives that you just can't shake off. I made that very mistake when I fell in love with a certain name (I won't reveal it because I don't want to ruin it for others!) ...only to see someone point out that it constantly gets autocorrected on a phone to something rather rude instead. So, back to the drawing board we went.. Just five weeks to go and it looks like our little one is going to be known as 'baby gal' for a little while longer! 'I thought it was bad news – but they were happy tears. 'She told me, 'You're pregnant.' 'I cried my eyes out. Advertisement 'That was just the beginning of the journey. 'I've always wanted children – the real challenge was finding the right person to have them with. 'All around me, my friends were having babies. 'I was always at baby showers and christenings. I've been a godmother to so many kids. Advertisement 'I had a vision board with a little boy on it. 'In my heart, I always longed to hold a baby that was mine.' Following a pregnancy marked by intense nausea and fluctuating hormones, Crue was born via C-section on 28 November last year. Rene said: 'They placed him on my chest for skin-to-skin contact. Advertisement 'That's when it hit me – this is real, he's here.' Despite the criticism that's come since Rene says she wouldn't change a thing. She said, 'There are so many positives to having a child later in life. 'I'm more financially stable, more patient, and I've lived a full life. Advertisement 'I feel more in control, more confident. 'I've spent years around friends' kids, reading, learning. 'I'm in a completely different headspace. 'You do get that twinge of guilt when you think about being older, but it's nobody's business. Advertisement 'You have to live your own life in your own time.' 4 Rene spent £20,000 on fertility treatment over the years Credit: Jam Press/Rene Bryd
