Beyoncé's tenth tour in support of her eighth studio album, Cowboy Carter, commenced on April 28, 2025, at the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. While the tour has already been making headlines owing to the singer's daughter, Blue Ivy, joining her on stage, an instance concerning a concertgoer has been making rounds on social media as well.
X page @beyoncegarden posted a video of Beyoncé performing her 2008 track Diva, wherein she pointed toward a concertgoer while singing the line "She ain't no diva."
This is not the first instance of Queen Bey pulling this off, given that she went viral for pointing at a concertgoer and singing the same line during her Renaissance World Tour in 2023.
Netizens quickly took to X to put forth their thoughts on the incident, wherein an X user called out the cameraman for not zooming in on the concertgoer that Beyoncé was pointing at:
"And the camera man messy af"
"THEM CAMERA MAN LOOKIN FOR THEM SISKSS … maury come get your employee" an X user commented
"the camera doing the double take is SENDING ME" another X user mentioned
"the camera panning for us to see is SO FUNNY" an internet user stated
Additionally, internet users speculated that Queen Bey is aware of what goes on social media, while some dubbed her performance move as "iconic:"
"She just knew the internet needed a new meme for the 2025" an X user tweeted
"Beyoncé with the 'SHE AIN'T NO DIVA' shade again? Iconic!" a netizen commented
