The second night of the tour Cowboy Carter of Beyoncélast Thursday, May 1, he had an unexpected guest, but not least: Tina Knowlesthe mother of the superstar. The event was not limited to a simple appearance; It was a large -scale family celebration, a sample of public affection with a deep meaning.
In the middle of the concert, Beyoncé, with his daughters, Blue Ivy (13 years) and Rumi (7 years), next to him, invited the audience to join a tribute to his mother. “She worked so hard in her book,” Beyoncé said, with a visibly proud smile. “It has the number one book on the New York Times bestsellers list.” The emotion of the moment was palpable: Rumi jumped euphorically while Blue Ivy silently silenced her.
The scene, a whirlwind of tenderness and triumph, continued with a moving request: “Everyone, please say ‘congratulations, mama t!’ One two three!”. The stadium responded to Unison, flooding Tina Knowles with a wave of congratulations. Tina, moved, responded with a kiss fly to the audience before retiring from the stage, by the hand of her granddaughter Rumi.
The reason for so much jubilation: the resounding success of Tina Knowles’s memoirs, Matriarch, that debuted at the top of the list of non -fiction bestsellers in the hardcover of the New York Times. This publication, launched just over a week before, offers an intimate look at the life of the matriarch, from the raising of one of the greatest music figures to its battle against breast cancer in 2024. In fact, the book also occupies the number 1 position in the combined list of printed and electronic books of non -fiction of the publication.
This family moment on stage, beyond brightness and fame, showed us Beyoncé’s human side and the deep admiration he feels for his mother. The tour Cowboy Carterwhich began on April 28 and will continue in the United States and Europe until the end of July, promises more unforgettable moments, but this, loaded with genuine emotion, will surely be recorded in the memory of all present.
