A Tina Turner Tribute Fuels Act III Rumors

Sir McCartney wasn't the only legend Beyoncé honored on the final night of her London stop. Earlier, while on stage, fan-recorded clips showed her rocking a vintage Tina Turner "What’s Love Tour" t-shirt.

The 43-year-old paired the oversized, long-sleeved white apparel with a cowboy hat and several layers of stacked diamond necklaces. One clip showed her fighting back tears as she pointed at her idol on her chest.

Beyoncé has often been vocal about her deep adoration for the late Turner, often crediting her as one of her biggest musical influences. With Turner's legacy as the "Queen of Rock 'n' Roll," many believe the shirt is proof that Queen B's third act of her "Renaissance" trilogy will be the Rock genre.

"She's sending a message: Acts III is inspired by Queen of Rock, Tina Turner," one Beyhive member theorized online.

"Tina Turner on her shirt? Yeah, the Rock album is coming," another similar comment read.

"Beyoncé wearing a Tina Turner T-shirt for Texas Hold' Em, and giving us a few [rock hand sign emoji] is really telling us Act III is imminent," a third fan gushed.

Tina Knowles Talks Daughter's Upcoming Album

While fans can't help but see obvious signs that Beyoncé's ninth studio album will be Rock genre-focused, there has been no confirmation from her camp.

Last month, the singer's mother, Tina Knowles, addressed the conspiracy theories while promoting her best-selling memoir, "Matriarch."

When asked during an appearance on Andy Cohen Live about the upcoming project, she answered, "I have no idea." When host Andy Cohen further pressed, saying, "I feel like you do, but that's cool," Ms. Knowles smiled.

Although Beyoncé ended her London stop on a high note, it didn't start that way. As The Blast reported, during the first show, she experienced an unexpected wardrobe malfunction.

While the icon was performing her hit track "I'm That Girl" in an all-gold outfit, her chaps slipped off her waist when she tried to stomp her feet.

However, Queen B handled the mishap like a pro, remaining unbothered during the music break, before stylishly sliding her hands down to pick them back up.

The smooth recovery had the crowd breaking out in cheers, as a backup singer attended to Beyoncé, fastening her outfit.

Meanwhile, the singer is reportedly working on a memoir, inspired by the success of her mother's.

A source dished on the alleged biography, saying Beyoncé has been drafting it quietly for years now, hoping to tell her truth someday.

"Beyoncé has been private about her personal life, but she documents everything, so has technically been writing one for over a decade now," the insider explained.

The source further noted that the book will explore Jay-Z's alleged infidelity that inspired the album "Lemonade," and that could shake the rapper to the core.
