BeyHive, the time has come. Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Tour officially kicked off at Los Angeles’s SoFi Stadium on April 28, and, naturally, she brought her best. Case in point: celebs like Lizzo and Cooper Koch showed up to witness Bey in all her glory, and her daughters, Blue Ivy and Rumi Carter joined her on stage for their own moment in the spotlight. The show’s opening night gave fans a taste of what her 32-date run might entail, and when I tell you I am seated…I mean it.
Earlier this year, Bey made history at the Grammys, where she became the first Black woman to take home the award for Best Country Album and won her first-ever golden gramophone for Album of the Year. “I just feel very full and very honored. It’s been many, many years,” Beyoncé said during her acceptance speech. “I just want to thank the Grammys, every songwriter, every collaborator, every producer, for all of the hard work.”
Now, Beyoncé has brought her Grammy-winning album to life as she debuted most of its tracks live and sang fan favorites like “Formation” and “Diva.” She even unlocked her vault of deep cuts, performing I Am…Sasha Fierce’s “Why Don’t You Love Me” for the first time since 2014 (!!!). Just when you thought the iconic performer couldn’t outdo herself, she does so effortlessly.
So, giddy up! It’s the perfect time to gather your Western-inspired outfits and study Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Tour setlist—ya know, for your own yee-haw moment.
