Beyoncé brought the storm and the soul to Chicago with two unforgettable nights of her Cowboy Carter Tour at Soldier Field. We’re breaking down every moment from Night 2’s extended “Ya Ya” outro and the powerful new choreography in “American Requiem,” to Night 3’s surprise stage entrance (no horse!) and the crowd that might just win best of the tour. We talk fashion changes, the debut of “New Money,” Jay-Z sightings, celebrity guests, and the new closing bodysuit that had us screaming. Soldier Field saw over 140,000 fans across three nights—was this her best city yet?

Tune in as we saddle up and ride through the highlights, fan reactions, and MetLife predictions.

Beyoncé braved the storm and brought the heat to Chicago's Soldier Field on May 15 for night one of her #CowboyCarterTour! Despite severe weather warnings and heavy showers, Queen Bey didn't let the rain dampen her sparkle. The show started around 10:15 p.m. CT, after a delay of over 3 hours, and she rocked not one, but several stunning new looks.

The show opener was a showstopper - a sparkly gold bodysuit with fringe and matching chaps. She later debuted another fierce look with more chaps for "Alligator Tears", leaving fans gagging! For "Texas Hold 'Em", she wore a custom letterman jacket with a big "B" and boots that read "made for walking". Beyoncé even threw some shade, playfully calling out the crowd for being "very demure", a nod to TikTok creator Jools LeBron's viral trend - and a special shoutout since LeBron was in attendance! One standout moment was her performance of "Ya Ya". Queen Bey is always on top of her game, trends, and lingo!

Tune in as Courtney , Shad (Notorious), Earline, and Dr. Sadie break down all the energy from Cowboy Carter Night 5 in Inglewood.

Night 5 came with a twist: while Beyonce welcomed us to the Renaissance once more, she came down on a lift instead of the stairs as she once did to prior. Fan favorites like “Irreplaceable,” and “If I Were a Boy,” and a snippet of “Haunted” crept into “Tyrant” snippet of “Haunted” teased yet again, keeping fans guessing.

Beyoncé’s "Cowboy Carter" tour has officially wrapped up its Los Angeles leg with five sold-out shows at SoFi Stadium! The final show on May 9th was a historic spectacle that blended fashion, music genres, and powerful themes. With a 39-song setlist, Queen Bey solidified her record for most performances at SoFi Stadium. A star-studded crowd attended, including Megan Thee Stallion, Jackée Harry, Jackie Aina, Taraji P. Henson, and Jussie Smollette. Next stop: Chicago's Soldier Field on May 15th!

Tune in as Earline, Shad, and Dr. Sadie break down all the energy from Cowboy Carter Night 4 in LA where they sat, what they wore, their favorite moments, and what was inside those VIP Netflix bags!

Night 4 came with a twist: while the crowd held tight to fan-favorite anthems from Night 2 like “Single Ladies,” “Love On Top,” “Irreplaceable,” and “If I Were a Boy,” a haunting surprise crept into “Tyrant” snippet of “Haunted” teased yet again, keeping fans guessing.

Earlier in the day, Netflix gifted “Beyoncé Bowl” VIP passes to cast and crew, stirring buzz that this might be the night Beyoncé was filming. A new animated intro led the way into a night pulsing with cinematic flair.

Fashion & Merch:

From the new “Stars & Strings” tee to the Cowboy Carter bandanas, Shop Beyoncé was on full display and nearly sold out. Fans served fits worthy of the spotlight.

Celebs in the Building:

Ashley Everett, Laurel Dewitt, 803FRESH, and Bozoma Saint John pulled up, adding even more shine to a night already drenched in star power.

Night 3 LA of the Cowboy Carter Tour kept the momentum soaring at SoFi Stadium! Beyoncé held onto the fan-favorite Night 2 setlist—“Single Ladies,” “Love On Top,” “Irreplaceable,” and “If I Were a Boy”—but turned up the heat during “Tyrant” with extra dancers and a surprise bull ride moment by the female dancers. The “MOVE” interlude was swapped for a rare “Jolene” appearance, only seen on opening night. In the “WHO AIN’T NO DIVAAA” moment, the cameraman gave fans a closer look. Queen Bey rocked a cowboy hat (no cap this time!) and swapped the Vegas Sphere for a jaw-dropping stadium visual.

Spotted in the crowd: Kelly Rowland, Jay Z, Jennifer Hudson, Niecy Nash, Brenda Song, Ming Lee Simmons & Sarah Paulson.

Night 2 in Inglewood lit up Sofi Stadium with Beyoncé adding fan-favorite anthems like Single Ladies, Love On Top, and If I Were a Boy to the Cowboy Carter setlist—plus the stunning live debut of Magic #44. From riding a rumored 18-karat gold bull to shouting out every section of the crowd, Queen Bey made sure no seat was left unloved. We break down the night’s standout moments, fashion gems (👀 “BETTY BLACK STORY”), surprise celeb sightings, and the continued evolution of the Cowboy Carter era.

Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Tour opens with a cinematic reckoning—part history lesson, part genre-defying spectacle. From the spiritual echoes of “AMERIICAN REQUIEM” to the genre mashup of “SPAGHETTII,” the setlist weaves through gospel, country, trap, opera, and ballad, asking: Who is Cowboy Carter? Highlights include the return of “Why Don’t You Love Me” for the first time since 2014, a powerful family moment during “PROTECTOR” with Blue Ivy and Rumi, and a thunderous remix of “TEXAS HOLD ‘EM.” Each act is a chapter, complete with theatrical interludes, choreographed storytelling, and a fashion archive worthy of a museum—from custom Mugler and Moschino to Thom Browne couture. With surprise appearances from Mama Tina, Oprah, Kelly Rowland, and more, this is Beyoncé not just performing, but redefining what a tour can be.

A genre-bending, sample-looping, Black Southern feminist opera—Cowboy Carter is not a show. It’s a statement.
