Los Angeles: Beyoncé launched her much-anticipated Cowboy Carter stadium tour with a dazzling three-hour opening show at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.
Clad in a white cowboy outfit with fringe, she took fans on a country-inspired journey, performing hits like Texas Hold 'Em, Tyrant, and a soaring cover of Dolly Parton's Jolene — sung while seated on a floating horseshoe.
Adding heart to the spectacle, her 13-year-old daughter Blue Ivy joined as a backup dancer, while 7-year-old Rumi made a touching appearance during the lullaby Protector.
The tour, running through July across the US and Europe, celebrates the Grammy-winning album that honors the overlooked legacy of Black artists in country music.
