Beyoncé Avoids Falling From Flying Car Due to Prop Malfunction

Beyoncé wasn’t crying any alligator tears—despite her recent onstage mishap.

At the initial performance of two concerts featuring “Cowboy Carter” at Houston’s NRG Stadium on June 28, the artist known for singing “Texas Hold ‘Em” experienced a nerve-wracking event. She seemed to get stuck in a car that started tilting upwards as it hung above the audience.

On TikTok on June 28th, a video was posted featuring a 44-year-old individual who unexpectedly halted his performance of “16 Carriages” and began repeatedly saying, “Stop, stop, stop,” into the microphone instead.

After the music ended, the Grammy-winning artist hovered in the air with a smile, gazing down on the crowd who burst into applause.

In a short while, she composed herself and expressed gratitude, saying “I appreciate your wait,” as the vehicle eventually descended right into the heart of the arena.

“If ever I fall,” she said after returning to the stage, “I know y’all would catch me.”

On previous occasions too, Beyoncé – mother to 13-year-old Blue Ivy and 7-year-old twins Rumi and Sir with her husband Jay Z – has experienced technical difficulties while performing on the “Cowboy Carter” tour.

In my recent concert at SoFi Stadium, California, I was spotted casually searching for my designated spot moments before I launched into my “Cozy” performance, a captivating stage setup where gold frames encase me. (Video footage from the event was shared on TikTok.)

While awaiting the mechanical arms to position the frames around her torso, she glanced below and noticed her designated spot was absent. Perplexed yet determined, she continued with her performance, skillfully executing each move to dodge the automated stage props.

One user wrote, “She was staring at the floor in shock,” and another said, “That’s quite dangerous. It’s impressive she managed to reach her target nonetheless.

During a different performance last month, Blue Ivy stepped in just in time to prevent a possible mishap on stage. She quickly removed an earring that was about to tangle in Beyoncé’s hair while she was performing.

During a subsequent rendition of “I’m That Girl” in London on June 5th, Beyoncé found herself unable to prevent her sparkling cowboy chaps from slipping away while she danced vigorously alongside her performers.

Even so, she pulled her outfit back up without missing a beat as she sang, “Deadass.”

In the debut track of “Cowboy Carter”, Beyoncé appears to address her detractors, possibly hinting at the criticism she encountered following her performance at the Country Music Association Awards in 2016.

In a different phrasing: “People once criticized me by saying I spoke too rural, and they told me I wasn’t ‘real country.’ However, I sing, ‘They said I wouldn’t ride horses, but if that isn’t country, then tell me, what is it? I’ve walked on solid ground for years, they don’t understand the struggle I had to endure to get here.

Initially, spectators observed that the CMA Awards seemed to remove video of her unexpected performance with The Chicks. Nevertheless, in a communication to TopMob News, the association clarified they had actually taken down a promotional clip.

Apart from “Texas Hold ‘Em,” the Grammy-winning artist also unveiled “16 Carriages” as one of her two main tracks from her diverse album. In this soulful ballad, Beyoncé appears to express her experiences of working hard since her youth and chasing her dreams. Upon its release, her online fans labeled it as one of her most intimate songs to date.

Sixteen wagons departing as I gaze, watching them vanish with my hopes fading, under the summer twilight sky on a sacred evening, along an endless highway, uncovering every tear within me.

In my own words, one of her enchanting songs titled “Protector” begins with her dear daughter Rumi inquiring about a soothing lullaby.

The artist, who is not only a singer but also the mother of Rumi’s twin brother Sir and their eldest sibling Blue Ivy, contemplates her role as a mother. “Destined to be a guardian, yes indeed / Even though I understand one day you’ll shine brightly on your own.

She explains, ‘I will serve as your screen, yes, yes indeed / A fresh apricot plucked straight from a tree’, she says. ‘I supplied nourishment to the earth / Now it sustains me, indeed, indeed (Indeed) / And there you are, hidden in its shade / I take pride in my identity /Because you rely on me.’

A smash success that speaks for itself: The lively track “Texas Hold ‘Em” reigned supreme on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, marking Beyoncé’s ninth solo chart-topper. Additionally, her hit also reached the summit of the Hot Country Songs chart, making the former member of Destiny’s Child the first black woman to have a number one country song in Billboard history.

Apart from transforming Dolly Parton’s popular song “Jolene” into a personal rendition with lyrics like, “Jolene, I’m a woman too / The tricks you play are nothing new / So you don’t want trouble from me, Jolene,” she additionally enlisted the country music legend herself for an interlude that subtly referenced another famous character: “Becky with the good hair.

Hey there, Miss Honey B! It’s Dolly P calling. You know that woman with the stunning mane you sing about? Reminds me of someone from my past, but she’s got locks of auburn gold instead. Oh my, she’s still a heartbreaker just like the one I knew! Different hair color, same old pain.

Beyoncé made it quite apparent that her stance was more like a strong caution: “However, if you’re not up for this confrontation, then take a chance with someone else instead (I’ve made myself clear).

The current Grammy-nominated teamwork with Miley Cyrus continues to delight fans, particularly the catchy lyrics about being a “passenger” that quickly made an impact. Back in June, the former Hannah Montana star looked back on the songwriting process, revealing that she wrote it years prior to Beyoncé contacting her for the project called Cowboy Carter.

Miley explained to W Magazine that she told someone, “We don’t need to prove we’re country; we already are,” and added, “We’ve always been country. After all, you being from Texas and me from Tennessee, there will be plenty of us in this song. Writing a song for Beyoncé instead of just singing it was an amazing dream come true.

In unison on the road, they vocalize their well-known verse, “I’m ready to be your passenger for as long as I live / Let smoke curl from the window as we speed along the 405/ And I can be your backseat companion, stirring up excitement at any moment you desire.

In this performance, the 32-time Grammy laureate pointed out a conspicuous oversight from the 2024 Grammys: She didn’t receive the Album of the Year award for her album, Renaissance.

Indeed, as Jay-Z stepped onto the stage that evening, he couldn’t resist acknowledging it right away – a point she is always quick to emphasize.

In a casual and clear manner: “A-O-T-Y, I haven’t won yet (Let’s go) / I’m not boasting about it,” she croons, “I’ll take that setback gracefully/ Return and mess up the game (Yeah).

In a harmonious union, her duet with Post Malone was not just one of those songs that seemed destined to be (“Boy, I’ll let you wear my Levi’s jeans / So you can embrace me all day long”), but she also disrobed for a denim-centric campaign in September with the legendary denim brand.
