Beyoncé Has Infuriated Fans With Another Surprise Jay-Z Appearance During 'Cowboy Carter' Tour

Beyoncé has rubbed many of her fans the wrong way, and this time, it's for bringing Jay-Z out during one of her "Cowboy Carter" tour stops.

For those who may be unfamiliar, Beyoncé is currently on her world tour for her eighth studio album, "Cowboy Carter."

The three-hour, electrifying concert kicked off at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, California, in April 2025. Since then, it's traveled to London, Chicago, and even stopped in her hometown of Houston, Texas.

Beyoncé's show features a spectacle of moving parts, from pyrotechnics to flying cars to flying horses, as well as praiseworthy performances from her daughters, Blue Ivy and Rumi Carter. During a particular stop in Paris, France, however, Jay-Z joined the family on stage and performed his hit single, "N-ggas In Paris."

Although unexpected, the move didn't surprise many, considering the Carters have always been open about their love for the City of Lights.

However, Beyoncé's decision to have Jay-Z make another surprise appearance during her recent stop in Atlanta, Georgia, on July 13, 2025, has sent many fans into a spiral.

Beyoncé performed in Washington, DC, on July 4, 2025, and many assumed the "JOLENE" singer would pull off something spectacular for the crowd. However, there were no special changes to the show.

As a result, Atlanta's crowd being graced with Jay-Z's presence has left fans in other cities expressing their feelings of disapproval.

"The way DC hive and Houston hive tried to say Atlanta wasn't getting nothing special and look what Bey did for them," someone wrote. "They got the big three last tour and Jay-Z this tour. Wow."

"HTX is NOT Atlanta, wyd Beyoncé?" another wrote. "Where was this energy?" to which another fan replied, "[And] DC on the fourth, but Jay-Z comes out in Atlanta. Girl..."

"Jay-Z know he was supposed to perform at the DC show on [the] 4th of July, not Atlanta," someone else posted. "That just makes the most sense, idk."

And the negative comments didn't end there. Over on Instagram, the "Crazy In Love" singer received a similar reaction, with one commenting, "The fact that he didn't come out in NYC don't sit right with me."

Someone else said they've learned from their mistakes, adding, "Note to self... see the next Beyoncé show in Atlanta."

A third user said that although they love Jay-Z, they want him to "stop playin."

"Love seeing the family on stage, but he needs his own concert stage," they added.

Jay-Z isn't the only A-lister to join Beyoncé on stage during her "Cowboy Carter" tour. She was also joined by "Flowers" singer Miley Cyrus during one of her stops in Paris, where they sang their hit, "II MOST WANTED."

"Beyoncé, to be beside such a humble, gracious, legendary DIVA was a dream come true," Cyrus wrote on Instagram. "Thank you for the opportunity to perform in Paris together [and] sing our song about friendship."

"To have learned from you [and] loved you my whole life, [and] then be standing together in matching gold looks is more than I could've imagined," she continued.

"Forever and always," she finished.

Also, while in Paris, Beyoncé's three-night run grossed over $39.7 million (€34.4m), becoming the highest-grossing set of shows ever performed at the iconic stadium.

The shows on June 19, 21, and 22, 2025, also set a new record for the highest-grossing single concert in the venue's history, pulling in over $13.2 million (over €11.4m) per night.

And that's not all.

She also officially became Stade de France's top-selling female artist, with over 215,000 tickets sold.

Days prior, the mother of three had broken another set of records at London's Tottenham Stadium, where she performed six sold-out shows for over 275,000 fans.

The 35-time Grammy winner also set a new record for most concerts performed at the venue (six), while grossing over $61.5 million (£45m) in ticket sales.
