Toward the end of the night, fans were pleasantly surprised when she did a gender reveal onstage for a fan. Early in her performance, Beyoncé spotted a fan's sign asking for a gender reveal. She told the fan, "I'll be back. I'm going to do it later." And she delivered on that promise toward the end of the concert. As the performance wrapped, Beyoncé circled back to the fan saying, "I had to come back to you. I didn't want to rush this, because this is important. A once-in-a-lifetime gender reveal. I had to take my time." Beyoncé then knelt down, carefully unraveling the envelope to reveal baby Carter's gender. The entire crowd leaned into the moment, cheering as Beyoncé showed off the paper that read 'Cowboy.' With a warm smile, she turned to the fan and confirmed, 'It's a boy,' as the stadium roared with celebration. beyoncé doing yet another gender reveal on tour, this is truly iconic😭🥹 — 𝗱𝗮𝗻𝗻𝘆🫧💚 (@beyoncegarden) May 29, 2025 Wednesday's concert was her fourth of five times performing in the New York area on her Cowboy Carter and Rodeo Chitlin' Circuit Tour.
