Beyonce shocks fans with gender reveal during Cowboy Carter tour... as baby's adorable name is revealed
Beyonce is already a doting mother to Blue Ivy Carter, and twins Rumi and Sir. While the 43-year-old hasn't discussed plans to have more children, she was more than happy to do a gender reveal for some fans at a recent stop on her Cowboy Carter tour. At the end of Wednesday's show in New Jersey, Bey picked out a young couple from the VIP section who had been trying to get her attention throughout the concert. Taking an envelope from the pair, she smiled and opened it before reading out the word, 'cowboy'. 'It's a boy! God bless you. Congratulations! Thank you so much for letting me be a part of it,' she gushed. The couple later took to social media to announce that they were naming the unborn child Carson. Their first born is already named Carter, after Beyonce, and their second child is a son named Cade. 'Last night at Beyoncé's concert, she took the time, in the rain, to give us a moment we'll remember forever by doing our gender reveal!' the father wrote on Instagram. 'We are so grateful that she took the time to do that and the boys are gonna be so excited to hear that Beyoncé announced their baby BROTHER to the world!' he continued. 'She saw our sign earlier in the evening right before she was going to start a song and said she'd be back, and she kept her promise at the end of the show! 'Cade is gonna be so happy to finally have a baby to help take care of and Carter is going to be very excited when he sees Bey holding his picture on the sign.' The father-of-three also thanked Beyonce's fanbase, the Beyhive, for supporting him and his wife through their journey. 'The love from the Beyhive has been overwhelming! Thank you for being a part of this chapter with us and THANK YOU again to Beyoncé for going so above and beyond, it was unbelievable,' he finished. Beyonce first born Blue Ivy has been a big part of the Cowboy Carter tour, working as a backup dancer. She's also had youngest daughter Rumi on stage at select stops too. Beyonce and Blue suffered an awkward mishap on stage during one of the Chicago stops of the Cowboy Carter tour last week. While performing the song Protector, Blue, 13, got her earring caught on Beyonce's long blonde hair. The mistake happened as Blue briefly rested her head on her mother. When she tried to pull away, she realized that her jewelry had become completely tangled in Beyonce's hair. Trying not to panic, Blue attempted to separate her earring from the messy mane without disturbing Bey, who was in the middle of crooning along to the song. She eventually managed to pull the difficult feat off, with her mom seemingly none the wiser to the potential debacle. Fans on social media were quick to praise Blue's professionalism, with many saying that she learned it from Beyonce. 'The way Blue removed her earring, Beyoncé looking behind her to check, & blue confirming? THIS IS PROFESSIONALISM,' gushed one. 'Look at lil Mrs professional. I def would have yelled and been dramatic at that age,' added another. A third added, 'She's really good, grown ups can learn a lot from her professionalism.'

Meet Rumi Carter, Beyoncé & Jay-Z's Youngest Daughter
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA – FEBRUARY 11: (L-R) Blue Ivy Carter, Jay-Z and Rumi Carter attend the Super Bowl LVIII Pregame at Allegiant Stadium, 2024. (Photo byfor Roc Nation) Recently, Rumi Carter graced the stage for the first time on the opening night of Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter Tour. While her older sister, Blue Ivy Carter, 13, has been a scene-stealing regular in her mother's dance ensemble since her Renaissance era—and continues to grow in pop-culture relevance with each new step—Rumi has mostly stayed out of the spotlight until now. With astronomically famous parents and a rising starlet for a sister, she already has a legacy built up for her. So, what should we know about Beyoncé's youngest daughter as she begins to follow in her family's footsteps? Read on for everything we know about the youngest Carter daughter. She has a twin brother Beyonce performs as she is pregnant with twins during the 59th Annual Grammy Music Awards, 2017 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo credit VALERIE MACON/AFP via Getty Images) 'We have been blessed twice over,' said Beyoncé in her pregnancy announcement Instagram post in 2017. On June 13th of the same year, Rumi and Sir were born, and the Carters became a family of five. Rumi was named after the couple's favourite poet—a Persian artist of the same name—while their son 'just carries himself like that [a Sir]' according to Jay-Z. His grandmother, Tina Knowles, has said that Sir is not as interested in the spotlight as his sisters and is on the quieter side. However, his mother still includes him, featuring pictures of him and his sisters on screen during her blockbuster shows. She has been kept out of the limelight until now ATLANTA, GEORGIA – AUGUST 11: Blue Ivy Carter and Beyoncé perform onstage during the 'RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR' at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, 2023 in Atlanta, Georgia. (Photo by Kevin Mazur/WireImage for Parkwood) Beyoncé and Jay-Z have mostly kept their twins out of the spotlight, with only a few public appearances since 2017. The pop icon explained in an interview with GQ that this has been intentional. 'I've worked extremely hard on making sure my kids can have as much normalcy and privacy as possible,' she said. However, she commented that as they have gotten older, 'the more they become their own individuals,' and revealed that her kids follow her to the studio, to dance rehearsals, and just about everywhere else she goes. 'She's a natural, but I did not want Blue onstage,' she revealed about her daughter's desire to join her. 'Blue wanted it for herself. She took it seriously and she earned it.' It seems that Rumi has now hit the same milestone as Blue with her recent stage debut. She is following in her sister's footsteps LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA – FEBRUARY 02: Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and Blue Ivy Carter attend the 67th Annual GRAMMY Awards, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo byfor The Recording Academy) In 2019, at age 7, Blue became the youngest female artist to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 thanks to her feature on Beyoncé's 'Brown Skin Girl'. However, just last year Rumi broke this record, featuring on 'Protector' from the Cowboy Carter album at just age 6. It was for this track that she joined Beyoncé and Blue on stage for the first time recently, hugging her mother while being serenaded. It was not only a debut, but a beautiful family moment sure to melt even the coldest of hearts. Tina Knowles commented on the sentimental scene with some insight. 'The way she watches Blue and mirrors her every move… You can tell she's taking notes. She doesn't just want to join the legacy… she wants to SLAY it too!' She already has a star personality NEW YORK, NEW YORK – SEPTEMBER 04: Solange Knowles is seen leaving Harper's Bazaar Cocktail Party during New York Fashion Week, 2024 in New York City. (Photo by Gilbert Carrasquillo/GC Images) According to her grandmother, Rumi is the more dominant of the twins, already displaying a strong personality. She went on to say that Rumi reminds her of Solange, Beyoncé's younger sister. Knowles also described her as 'an amazing artist, painter, and creator' who is just as enveloped in creativity and fashion as the rest of her family. It makes sense, then, that despite her age, she has made a few appearances over the years. These include an Ivy Park campaign, the 2022 Black Is King visual album, and the promotional content of Mufasa: The Lion King . With her natural charisma and the creative mentors she has in her family, we're sure to see great things from the joint-youngest.

Can Blue Ivy Swerve the Nepo Baby Label To Build Her Own Empire?
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Everyone can't stop talking about Blue Ivy Carter—Beyoncé and Jay-Z's prodigal daughter—after the 13-year-old took to the stage alongside her mom at the launch of her Cowboy Carter tour this week. Indeed, from commanding the stage at Los Angeles' SoFi Stadium with stunning dance performances during "Déjà Vu,"to taking center stage for the Beyoncé song "America Has a Problem" in a bold newspaper-print ensemble, she seems to have proven that she is more than just a famous last name. Blue Ivy has also escaped the contempt that most other children of celebrities face online—and social media is completely enamored. "Blue Ivy the only nepo baby I stand 10 toes behind!" posted @kaypatricktayo on X, formerly Twitter. Blue Ivy the only nepo baby I stand ten toes behind! #CowboyCarterTour — 𐚁 (@kaypatricktayo) April 29, 2025 "Blue ivy is an example of a nepo baby that isn't insufferable because there's time being taken to develop her talents," said @shaTIRED. "Blue Ivy Carter is gonna be our greatest nepo baby in world history," added Sam Parker. Blue Ivy Carter is gonna be our greatest nepo baby in world history. Liza Minelli watch out your crown's already been snatched — sam parker (@samprkr) August 6, 2023 While her parents are thought to be worth as much as a combined $3 billion, Blue Ivy looks to be forging her own path. She already has a Grammy win for her singing on mom Beyoncé's hit "Brown Skin Girl"; received praise for her recent voice acting in Mufasa: The Lion King; and is estimated to have a net worth of over $500 million barely into her teens. Blue Ivy Carter attends the Los Angeles premiere of Disney's "Mufasa: The Lion King" at Dolby Theatre on December 9, 2024 in Hollywood, California.

Axelle/Bauer-Griffin / Contributor/FilmMagic But how does a child of two icons continue to transition from 'nepo baby' to empire builder? A panel of branding and PR experts told Newsweek that the answer lies in Blue Ivy's team balancing strategy, timing and—most importantly—a brand apart yet acknowledging her famous parents. The Icon Blueprint Kathryn Porritt, CEO and founder of Icons Incorporated, told Newsweek that Blue Ivy represents "the emergence of a true icon-in-the-making." "Blue Ivy doesn't need to follow her parents' blueprint for success or even consciously reject it," Porritt said. "Her unprecedented opportunity is to create something so fundamentally new that it establishes her not as the 'greatest nepo baby,' but as someone who makes such categories irrelevant." Porritt added that Beyoncé and Jay-Z are crafting a rare environment—one that provides protection and freedom. "The greatest service Beyoncé and Jay-Z can provide isn't just protection from exploitation, but protection of Blue Ivy's authentic creative vision—especially when that vision might diverge radically from their own." Credibility Over Inheritance Sarah Schmidt, president of global strategic firm Interdependence Public Relations, told Newsweek that Blue Ivy's power lies in growing up in a digital age that thrives on authenticity. "Building a standout brand for a celebrity's child today isn't about hiding the lineage; it's about orchestrating moments that prove talent trumps nepotism," she said. Schmidt added that she views Blue Ivy's Grammy win and recent voice role as pivotal. "Each successful credit moves her from 'heir apparent' to 'legitimate creator' and that narrative shift is priceless in a culture obsessed with authenticity," she said. Schmidt recommends Blue focuses on a strategy focused on three pillars: music with original sound and substance; fashion tied to sustainability; and screen roles that mature with her audience. "Roll these out in limited, high-impact drops like capsule collections or surprise EPs, so every launch feels curated, not manufactured," Schmidt said. The key, she added, is not just visibility, but earned credibility. From Fame to Mission Chrissy Bernal, founder of Be a Better Brand, told Newsweek that, with intentional branding and long-term planning, Blue Ivy could become "one of her generation's most influential public figures." "Her team must craft a narrative that separates her identity from her parents' legacy while still honoring it," Bernal said. For Gen Alpha, she added, relatability and purpose are more valuable than perfection. Bernal stressed the importance of "brand guardianship"—a support system that preserves boundaries and reinforces her personal mission. "It's not just about visibility. It's about alignment," she said. Creative Control, Front or Backstage Alexia D. McKay of Otter Public Relations told Newsweek that Blue Ivy is uniquely positioned to dominate both in front of and behind the camera. "Blue Ivy is multitalented! I can see her carving out her media empire. She has the individuality and confidence to do so. That foundation is already laid out; her name is already trademarked. Blue can work behind the scenes or in front of the camera, but a future in entertainment is certainly on the map," McKay said. The Next Olsen Twins? Publicist Danielle Sabrina told Newsweek that parallels between Blue Ivy and other successful "child celebrities-turned-moguls. " "I could definitely see Blue Ivy launching her own kids' line. It reminds me of what the Olsen twins did with their fashion brand; maybe even hair products or makeup for kids her age. I can already see her taking the same kind of steps as the Olsen twins did with their empire," Sabrina said. She also commended Beyoncé's gradual introduction of her daughter into the public eye. "I really respect that Beyoncé is giving Blue Ivy the room to shine on her own terms. I don't even think she's pushing her, it's more like she's creating the space, and Blue Ivy is stepping right into it," Sabrina concluded. Grounded Guidance Her famously hardworking mother aside, it seems Blue Ivy also has other grounded members on her B-Team. When Newsweek reached out to the teenager's publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, she signed off her email with a telling comment: "The road to success is always under construction."

Create Account During the sold-out Monday night show in Los Angeles, all eyes were on 13-year-old Blue Ivy, who has taken on more dancing since she wowed crowds during the Renaissance Tour, and 7-year-old Rumi, who very excitedly made her stage debut. The Beyhive may have watched Beyoncé daughters grow up from afar, but fans at SoFi Stadium and online gushed with pride as they watched the sisters come into their own onstage.

The crowd roared as the girls – whose father is Beyoncé's husband, Jay-Z – huddled together with their mom in a heartwarming moment during the song 'Protector,' which features Rumi. 'And I will lead you down that road if you lose your way/ Born to be a protector,' Beyoncé sang, as Rumi wrapped her in a hug and Blue Ivy embraced them both. 'Even though I know, someday, you're gonna shine on your own / I will be your projector.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. As the song was ending and the three walked forward, Rumi, unable to contain her joy, started to bounce in her sparkly cowboy boots and waved to the audience while grinning ear-to-ear. Bey held it together, but she eventually stopped mid-song when Rumi turned around to hug her. The interaction seems very on-brand for Rumi, who waved at her mom from the audience during the last tour. (Beyoncé was in the zone and didn't react.) Blue Ivy increased her stage time during the Cowboy Carter Tour, making it clear just how quickly she's improved as an entertainer since her debut as an 11-year-old during a May 2023 Renaissance show in Paris. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Blue had looked nervous during that performance, and seemed to lack energy during the 'My Power' and 'Black Parade' choreography, which led to online criticism. But she kept dancing and became a highlight of the show, as her comfort onstage grew and her moves kept getting cleaner and more energetic. This time around, with the Renaissance Tour and Bey's 'Cowboy Carter' NFL halftime show under Blue's belt, video clips went viral of her strutting onstage in a maroon outfit for 'Deja Vu' and dancing front and center in a newspaper-print costume during 'America Has a Problem.' Some commenters were awestruck, comparing Blue to Sasha Fierce (Beyoncé's alter ego from her third album) and Destiny's Child-era Beyoncé. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. The end of the concert tied Bey's 'bloodline on the front line' motif together, with a video montage chock-full of family photos. One especially eye-catching moment that flashed on the screen: Beyoncé in her purple jacket at the 2011 Video Music Awards, revealing she was pregnant with Blue.
