Over the past two weeks, Beyonce fans have experienced a wide range of emotions. On Christmas Day, they had the opportunity to witness Queen Bey demolish the NFL Halftime Show stage. The singer then hinted that on February 14, there would be a major announcement. Unfortunately, tragedy intervened. Beyonce chose to delay the announcement due to the spread of wildfires in California. Once Tuesday came around, though, a few fans began to spot concert notifications on their phones. Now there’s a theory that Bey is planning a show in Chicago.
A Beyhive contributor named Lori Goodwin claimed that the announcement is a concert. She claimed she signed up for a site that provided local updates on user’s favorite artists. The announcement was pushed back, but Goodwin theorizes that the site forgot to turn off notifications after the delay.”They [must’ve] had this scheduled and didn’t turn it off,” she wrote. Lori Goodwin went on to speculate that the show in the Windy City will likely be connected to a tour. “Since it’s Soldier Field, it will be a tour,” she explained. “Because it’s a stadium!.”
Goodwin wasn’t the only one who claimed to have received this notification. Other Beyonce fans flocked to social media to confirm they got something similar. Some lamented the delay due to the wildfires, and others were thankful they had more time to purchase tickets. Beyonce has not addressed the rumor that she is going on tour. There has, however, been lots of anticipation for her to go on the road with her new album, Cowboy Carter. The aforementioned Christmas Day show was the first time Beyonce played a lot of the album’s songs live. Fans want more.
This desire was built into the design of the album. Beyonce took to Instagram after the album’s release to confirm that she wants it to connect throughout the world. “It feels good,” the legendary singer explained. “To see how music can unite so many people around the world while also amplifying the voices of some of the people who have dedicated so much of their lives to educating on our musical history.” Beyonce will hopefully treat her fans to a tour sooner than later. In the meantime, she’s raising money for families who have been displaced by the California wildfires.
