In anticipation of her birthday, Beyoncé made an unusual request to her fans. She asked them to dress in the most fabulous silver outfits for her shows from August 23 to September 22. She wished to surround herself with a “shimmering human disco ball” each night, reflecting collective joy.
Fans did not disappoint. The concert was a sea of silver, with attendees wearing metallic outfits that sparkled under the stadium lights. The result was a breathtaking spectacle of shimmering attire, creating the perfect backdrop for the birthday festivities.

Ross performed her hit song “Love Hangover” and led the stadium in a heartwarming rendition of “Happy Birthday.” The emotional exchange between the two singers was a sight to behold as Beyoncé rushed to the stage to express her love and gratitude to Ross.

I’m thankful for all of you who have been with me since 1997. I’m thankful for every flaw, stretch mark, and FUPA. I thank you that I’m here at fucking 42. I’m grateful for joy, and I thank God.
