The internet was devastated by fake rumor that Beyonce would be at the DNC. Actual spectators were unburdened

Representative Abigail Spanberger of Virginia did not know what song she would want Beyoncé to perform ahead of Vice President Kamala Harris delivering her speech accepting the Democratic nomination for president.

But she had some ideas of what not to pick.

«I feel like there might be some state-related controversies if she sings the new Cowboy Carter song celebrating Texas,” Spanberger, a candidate for governor told The Independent as she topped condiments on her hot dog at the United Center, referring to the song “Texas Hold ‘Em.”

As the fourth night of the Democratic National Convention droned on, speculation swirled once the United Center in Chicago went on lockdown. Many delegates on the floor dressed up in stetsons and wore red-white-and-blue sashes in the style that Miss Carter-Knowles wore on the cover of her latest country album.

When the Chicks, who collaborated with Beyoncé on the song “Daddy Lessons” on her album Lemonade, sang the “Star-Spangled Banner,” that looked like a hint Beyoncé might have made the trek to Chicago. While Beyoncé had previously raised money for Barack Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign and performed at his inaugural, she had not set foot in a convention.

The rumors existed in the context of everything that had come before in the Harris-Knowles relationship. The singer, originally from Houston, Texas and the vice president have not made their mutual love a secret. The singer gave Harris and her husband, Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, tickets to the Renaissance Tour in 2023 to the tune of $1,655.92 in 2023.

Beyonce’sFreedom has been used as the theme song of the Harris campaign, with the Vice President walking out on stage at the DNC on Monday and on Thursday to the song.
