Will Blue Ivy, other guests perform? Fans will have their eyes peeled for special guests. Beyoncé's daughter Blue Ivy served as a dancer on her mom's Renaissance World Tour in 2023 and again during the Beyoncé Bowl NFL halftime show on Christmas Day. Will the 13-year-old be back to help bring "Cowboy Carter" to life on tour? Other guests at the Beyoncé Bowl included Post Malone, Shaboozey and the Black female country artists featured on "Blackbiird," Beyoncé's cover of the Beatles song. Could Brittney Spencer, Tanner Adell, Reyna Roberts or Tiera Kennedy join Queen Bey in L.A.? That halftime performance also featured Black rodeo stars and a striking white horse.
