Beyoncé's Beyhive Blows Hot And Cold After News Of A New Tour Was Debunked By Publicist

There's no tour for Beyoncé in 2025…or it hasn't been scheduled yet; at least, that's what some fans are hoping for.
The "Cuff It" singer recently made waves after a media outlet claimed she was gearing up for a new tour. Unfortunately, before fans could celebrate the news, Queen Bey's publicist shut down the narrative as false.
A tour might be too soon for Beyoncé given her unforgettable Renaissance World Tour in 2023. Fans had barely recovered from the dopamine effect of her incredible performances before she launched her first country album earlier this year.
Publicist Says Any Tour Update Will Come Directly From Beyoncé
The Grammy-decorated singer's publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, debunked the tour news on X after Hits Daily Double claimed Beyoncé was preparing for a "massive tour."
The outlet alleged the shows would start with her highly-anticipated halftime performance in December. However, their claims turned out to be false, per Noel-Schure, who tweeted:
"Untrue. Nothing to report here. Whenever there is any news, you will hear it directly from the source first."
While her words confirmed there was no tour scheduled at the time, some fans noted she did not deny the possibility of there being a tour in the future.
"Going out of your way to debunk this out of all things, lol yeah, the tour is next year. Thanks for confirming," a hopeful fan penned. A like-minded X user chimed in:
"This mystery game is already boring, and stop lying. We are old in the hive," while a third believed Beyoncé would make a "visual announcement."
"It's okay to just say 'get your money together' once in a while. Everything doesn't need to be a surprise," a fan noted. An X user found Noel-Schure's response suspicious, writing:
"Ms Yvette, I hear what you saying, but I don't trust it. I'm going to make sure my tour account padded JUST in case…."

While some believed Beyoncé's publicist had subtly confirmed the tour with her rebuttal, others were disappointed by how quickly she shut down the news. "YOUR ASS ALWAYS COME WITH THE NEGATIVITY. F— u," a displeased X user wrote.
"When it's time to debunk fake news and pointless attacks online, no one from the team shows up. But when it's about crushing the Beyhive's dreams, they waste no time!" a critic added. A third lamented:
"Something [is] always categorically false with you. When you gonna confirm something."
However, not everyone was mean, with one fan sweetly commenting, "Each of us wanted to hear something completely different, but thanks! We will wait for our girl until she's ready! We love her." The false tour news comes days after Beyoncé's halftime performance was announced.

Last week, The Blast reported that Beyoncé had teamed up with Netflix and the NFL to bring her first country music album to fans this Christmas. The singer revealed she would headline the football game's famous halftime show on December 25, 2024.
The Houston Texans and the Baltimore Ravens would face off on the date in Beyoncé's native hometown of Houston, making this an extra special performance for the "TEXAS HOLD' EM" hitmaker. She shared the big news on X, dropping a sizzling video of herself in a bodycon.
The leather dress with red, white, and blue colors matched Beyoncé's cowboy-era looks, as she topped the mini ensemble with a cowboy hat. The clip set to her "American Requiem" track captured the power vocalist standing on the hood of a vehicle adorned with roses and longhorns.

The halftime show vowed to be a fantastic experience for the Beyhive, with their idol performing hits from her "Cowboy Carter" album. Beyoncé's performance would also make history as the first halftime gig to be streamed on Netflix.
That wasn't all; the streaming giant revealed that Beyoncé would be joined onstage by unnamed guests who contributed to her hit country album. Naturally, the news sparked a wave of excitement on social media, with fans looking forward to the event.
"Christmas in Houston feels extra special with Beyoncé in the mix!" someone declared with another chiming in, "Why are you doing this to me, Beyonce. I am literallycryinggggg omg." A third reflected on the record-breaker's history, noting the upcoming event would be her "6th NFL halftime performance."
Beyoncé Is The Leading Nominee For The 2025 Grammys
Beyoncé has broken several records with her country album, scoring the most nominations at the 2025 Grammys. She became the most nominated artist in history with her 11 nods for the upcoming event, securing spots in the country and American roots categories for the first time.
The singer snagged spots in top categories like Album of the Year, Best Country Album, Best Country Solo Performance, Best Country Song, and Best Americana Performance. The list continued with a nod to the best country duo/group performance.
However, scoring high nominations did not guarantee winning any awards, as seen at the People's Choice Country Awards. Despite giving Beyoncé 17 nominations in September, she went home without a single trophy. Additionally, the CMA Awards did not honor the singer with any nominations.
Will Beyoncé go on another tour like fans want?
