Miley Cyrus and Beyonce perform Grammy-winning duet in Paris
Beyonce fans were shocked left when the superstar brought out a surprise performer at the Paris stop of her Cowboy Carter tour on Thursday night.
Miley Cyrus became the first official guest to take the stage during the tour, appearing at Paris' Stade de France to give a debut live performance of their duet II Most Wanted.
The song, which was the third single off the country album, took home the 2025 Grammy for best country duo/group performance — beating out stars such as Post Malone and Morgan Wallen.
II Most Wanted became Beyonce's 23rd and Cyrus' 13th top-10 song on the Billboard Hot 100.
The song also debuted at number two on the Hot Country Songs, scoring Beyonce's third and Cyrus' second top-10 on the chart.
The Wrecking Ball singer has spoken out in previous interviews about the song, which she wrote, perfectly encompassing the duo's relationship. The pair first met at a 2008 telethon raising funds for cancer research. Credit: Supplied
'I told her, 'We don't have to get country; we are country. We've been country',' she told W magazine last year.
'You know, between (Beyonce) being from Texas and me being from Tennessee, so much of us is going to be in this song.' Getting to write a song, not just sing, for Beyonce was a dream come true.'
Beyonce has passed the halfway mark of her Cowboy Carter world tour, having previously touched down in Los Angeles, Chicago, New Jersey and London.
After she wraps in Paris on June 22, she will head back to the United States for shows in her hometown Houston, as well as Washington, DC, Atlanta and Las Vegas.

Chris Brown pleads not guilty over alleged London nightclub beating
Grammy-winning singer Chris Brown pleaded not guilty on Friday to a charge related to the serious beating of a music producer with a bottle in a London nightclub in 2023. Brown, 36, pleaded not guilty in Southwark Crown Court to one count of attempting to cause grievous bodily harm with intent. Brown's friend and fellow musician Omololu Akinlolu, 38, who performs under the name Hoody Baby, pleaded not guilty to the same charge. Prosecutors said Brown and Akinlolu assaulted producer Abe Diaw at a bar in the Tape nightclub in the swanky Mayfair neighbourhood in February 2023. Brown allegedly launched an unprovoked attack on Mr Diaw and hit him several times with a bottle, and then punched and kicked him. The attack was caught on surveillance camera in front of a club full of people, prosecutors said. Brown was released last month on 5 million British pounds ($10.39 million) bail, which allowed him to start his world tour earlier this month. His trial is scheduled to begin on October 26, 2026. Brown, who burst onto the music scene as a teen in 2005, won his first Grammy for best R&B album in 2011 for F.A.M.E. and then earned his second in the same category for 11:11 (Deluxe) earlier this year. His hits include songs such as Run It, Kiss Kiss and Without You. His tour is due to kick off June 8 in Amsterdam before starting North America shows in July. AP
