Beyoncé has a special bond with Paris. Here's why the city seems so meaningful to her
Beyoncé Knowles-Carter has launched her 'Cowboy Carter' tour in Paris, and the first concert reflected the special connection she seems to have with the city. The Grammy-winning singer kicked off her first show in Paris at Stade de France in Paris on June 19 — Juneteenth. The show marked the first show at the stadium on her Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin' Circuit Tour. She is set to hit the stage again on June 21 and 22 During her debut show in Paris, Beyoncé surprised fans with a special guest, "Cowboy Carter" collaborator Miley Cyrus. The two performed their Grammy-winning duet 'II Most Wanted' hand in hand. And the show seemed to be indicative of her love for the City of Love. One fan wrote, "Anyone who has been a Beyoncé fan for the last 15+ years knows that Paris has always ranked in the top two when it comes to cities that get the special treatment, e.g., special guests, set lists, etc." It's no secret both Beyoncé and her husband, Jay-Z, have a deep affection for the city. They have both referenced Paris in interviews and in their music, often tying it to pivotal moments in their lives and careers. Here are a few more reasons why many believe Beyoncé holds a special bond with the French capital. Beyoncé's shows in Paris sell out nearly immediately Beyoncé first announced the tour the night before the 2025 Grammy Awards, where she took home the award for best country album and the night's top prize album of the year for "Cowboy Carter." And Beyoncé only announced two international stops on the tour — one of them being Paris. And it seems like the love is mutual between Beyoncé and French fans. All three Paris shows on her tour at Stade de France sold out within minutes, amounting to 240,000 tickets sold. Blue Ivy made her first tour appearance with Beyoncé in Paris Blue Ivy Carter has had the Beyhive buzzing since she's taken on a lead role on her mom's "Cowboy Carter" tour. She has been wowing fans with her dance moves and making a statement for herself. However it was in Paris that Blue made her tour debut on the 2023 Renaissance World Tour at just 11 years old. She hit the stage, showing off her dance moves to 'My Power' and 'Black Parade" from the soundtrack for "The Lion King: The Gift." Beyoncé is no stranger to debuting special guests in Paris For her "Cowboy Carter" tour, Paris was the first city to receive a surprise appearance on the stage. However, Beyoncé is no stranger to choosing the city to debut special guests. During her Paris stop on her "On the Run" tour, Beyoncé surprised fans when she brought out Nicki Minaj in 2014. It was the first time the two ladies performed their hit song "Flawless Remix" together onstage. As fans know, Beyoncé first debuted her "Cowboy Carter" tour at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on April 28 with 39 songs on the set list. Her shows have been filled with family, fashion, different music genres, and most notably country music and cultural commentary. The nine-city tour will span the U.S. and Europe with the grand finale taking place in Las Vegas on July 26.

Exclusive first look: Hot Wheels unveils 'F1 The Movie' die-cast car ahead of film release
Check out the new Hot Wheels ride before anyone else. Motorsports fans and die-cast collectors are about to add another sweet piece to their collection. On Friday, June 20, Hot Wheels announced the release of a limited edition 1:64 scale die-cast car inspired by the upcoming film, 'F1 The Movie.' And yes, USA TODAY Shopping has the exclusive look at the wheels. The new Hot Wheels car is an exact replica of the machine that actor Brad Pitt's character, Sonny Hayes, drives in the movie with fictional race team, Apex Grand Prix (APXGP) team. If you're a dedicated die-cast collector like myself and are chomping at the bit at this incredible collaboration with Hot Wheels and Formula 1, you'll only have to wait just a few more days to secure yours. The limited edition Hot Wheels release will be available to pre-order for $25 beginning on Tuesday, June 24 at 12pm ET with the film officially hitting theaters on Friday, June 27 in North America. Bookmark this page because we'll be covering the official release. Regardless if you're a loyal racing fan, pop culture enthusiast or classic cinephile, this die-cast car is a fun way to own a piece of racing and cinematic history. Here's a closer look at the one-of-a-kind car: First look: Hot Wheels 'F1 The Movie' 1:64 Die-Cast Car A molded driver's helmet will be visible inside the cockpit of the die-cast car and an authentic gold and black livery adorned with Hayes' number seven highlights the precision and accuracy of the model. An overarching detail that shouldn't be ignored is the car also includes three sets of Pirelli tires and a tire storage rack to represent F1's three tire compounds the sport uses on any given race weekend. The tires can be swapped out on the die-cast model for your preference of tire. To cap it off, the die-cast model comes in a collector's 'Kar Keepers' clamshell case to help preserve the model and its unique packaging. When is 'F1 The Movie' release date? 'F1 The Movie' releases internationally on Wednesday, June 25. The North American release is set for Friday, June 27. What is 'F1 The Movie' about? The blockbuster film is based on Brad Pitt's character, Sonny Hayes, getting a second chance at success in Formula 1 after a horrific crash in the 1990s derailed Hayes' once promising career. With the help of former teammate Ruben Cervantes (Javier Bardem), Hayes joins Cervantes' struggling F1 team (APXGP) alongside hotshot rookie driver Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris). The film is a road to redemption story and the highs and lows that it presents in the sport. Shop Mattel Creations

Hot Wheels Unveils F1® THE MOVIE Die-cast Car, Bringing the Big Screen to 1:64 Scale
EL SEGUNDO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ahead of the global theatrical release of Apple Original Films' F1® The Movie, Hot Wheels® announced today a limited-edition die-cast car inspired by the fictional Apex Grand Prix (APXGP) team, driven by the film's character Sonny Hayes, played by Brad Pitt. The 1:64 scale Formula 1® die-cast will be available for purchase on beginning June 24, prior to the release of the film in theaters on June 27, from Warner Bros. Pictures. The 1:64 scale die-cast channels the high-octane energy and cutting-edge design of the APXGP team's Formula 1 car, bringing movie magic and motorsport realism together in true Hot Wheels fashion. Following last year's multi-year licensing partnership announcement with Formula 1 and two subsequent sold-out collaborative product pre-order launches, this release provides automotive enthusiasts, racing fans, pop culture devotees and movie lovers a way to take a little piece of F1® The Movie home with them. True to the race car driven by the character Sonny Hayes in the film, the Hot Wheels casting and the molded driver's helmet feature an authentic gold and black livery adorned with Hayes' number seven. Customers will also receive three sets of Pirelli tires and a tire storage rack. Additionally, the car will come in a collector's 'Kar Keepers' clamshell case to deliver the ultimate collector experience. 'Our previous Formula 1 product launches were incredibly well received by racing fans and Hot Wheels collectors, and now we can share a piece of the collection with film lovers around the world,' said Roberto Stanichi, executive vice president, Hot Wheels & Global Head of Vehicles and Building Sets at Mattel. 'The APXGP die-cast allows Hot Wheels to connect with a new audience of moviegoers who now have the opportunity to own a 1:64 scale piece of cinematic and racing history.' Set to hit theaters internationally beginning June 25, with a North American release on June 27, the highly anticipated Formula 1 film, directed by Joseph Kosinski, and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer Films, Plan B Entertainment, and seven-time F1® world champion Lewis Hamilton's Dawn Apollo Films banner, and made in collaboration with Formula 1®, stars Brad Pitt as 'Sonny Hayes.' Dubbed 'the greatest that never was,' Sonny Hayes was FORMULA 1's most promising phenom of the 1990s until an accident on the track nearly ended his career. Thirty years later, he's a nomadic racer-for-hire when he's approached by his former teammate Ruben Cervantes (Javier Bardem), owner of a struggling FORMULA 1 team that is on the verge of collapse. Ruben convinces Sonny to come back to FORMULA 1 for one last shot at saving the team and being the best in the world. He'll drive alongside Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris), the team's hotshot rookie intent on setting his own pace. But as the engines roar, Sonny's past catches up with him and he finds that in FORMULA 1, your teammate is your fiercest competition — and the road to redemption is not something you can travel alone. Apple Original Films and Warner Bros. Pictures Present A Monolith Pictures / Jerry Bruckheimer / Plan B Entertainment / Dawn Apollo Films Production, A Joseph Kosinski Film, F1 ® The Movie, distributed in theaters and IMAX® worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures. The 1:64 scale die-cast will be available for $25.00 USD.
