The teaser has led fans to speculate if Beyoncé is announcing a tour behind ‘Cowboy Carter’ or ‘Act III’ of her ‘Renaissance’ trilogy. Other forms of speculation include visuals for ‘Cowboy Carter’.
Beyoncé has yet to tour behind ‘Cowboy Carter’, last performing around ‘Renaissance’ in October 2023.
Her new social media post comes shortly after her Christmas-day Halftime Show in her hometown of Houston, Texas, where she debuted songs from ‘Cowboy Carter’ for the first time since releasing the record earlier this year.

For the set, she performed hits off the record such as ’16 Carriages’, ‘Blackbird’, ‘YA YA’, ‘My House’, ‘Jolene’ and more. She was joined by Post Malone for ‘Levii’s Jeans’ and by Shaboozey for ‘Sweet Honey Buckiin”.
‘Cowboy Carter’ scored a five-star review from NME upon its release, with Jenessa Williams writing: “Even if interpreted only on the grounds of artistic spectacle, it’s an undeniable thrill to see her swing so big on a project that dares her to be so intimate and vocal-focused, while making way for country’s up-and-comers too.”
The album clinched the seventh spot in NME‘s 50 Best Albums of 2024 list, and ’16 Carriages’ was named the eighth Best Song of 2024.
In other Beyoncé news, in November she became the most-nominated musician in Grammy history. She previously tied Jay-Z with 88 nominations apiece, but has since been nominated for a whopping 11 awards at next year’s Grammys, all for ‘Cowboy Carter’. She now holds a record-breaking 99 nominations and in 2023 broke the record for most Grammy wins, taking home a total of 32 trophies.
