Beyoncé faces a request to remove images from the “Cowboy Carter” tour

The Beyoncé music star faces a legal challenge initiated by the company that owns the newest stadium in Las Vegas, “The Sphere”.
According New York Post, Sphere Entertainment Group (SEG), led by billionaire James Dolan, has sent an official cessation and withdrawal letter to its production company, Parkwood Entertainment, demanding the elimination of certain images of the “Cowboy Carter” tour of Beyoncé.

The video, published by the fans during the inaugural concert in Los Angeles, shows a giant animated version of Beyoncé appearing in Las Vegas and then taking the iconic stadium sphere and playing with her. This scene, according to the letter, constitutes a “violation of the intellectual property rights of the company.”

The letter states that “Beyoncé, many times bigger than the ‘sphere itself’ itself, leans, takes the sand and seems to dominate.”

SEG declares that it has not been requested or given permission to use specific stadium images in the video, or in possible products, promotional materials or in any possible film project of the tournament.

“This unauthorized use has fed the generalized speculation that Beyoncé will end the tour with several concerts in the ‘Sphere’, which is not true,” adds the letter.

Beyoncé, who has never acted at Sphere, has on Monday, May 5, 2025 to withdraw the material or the company reserves the right to take more legal measures without prior notice.

What happened to the conversations about Beyoncé’s concerts in Las Vegas?

Resources for New York Post They have revealed that Beyoncé was in long negotiations with Sphere for concerts, but the conversations failed. His request for the stadium to be closed for two weeks for trials was considered a huge financial loss, since the sphere shows the successful postal film from Earth four times a day, with tickets that begin at $ 104.

Parkwood Entertainment also requested around 10 million dollars to build the high -tech stage, an amount similar to the one Sphere had paid to the famous U2 band for its concert.

After the failure of his contract with Sphere, Beyoncé would be in conversations with MGM for an alternative concert tour of 100 shows for four years.

“We do not comment on any artist who will perform in ‘Sphere’, except those who have been officially announced,” said a spokesman “Sphere.”
