Beyoncé tour chaos on night one as first Cowboy Carter gig disrupted by fight
Pop superstar Beyonce kicked off her Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin' Circuit Tour in Los Angeles last night yet chaos erupted as fans brawled while leaving the show
The first night of Beyonce's Cowboy Carter tour descended into chaos as a fight erupted in the VIP section. The pop superstar kicked off her highly anticipated tour in Los Angeles on Monday night, with surprise appearances from her daughters Blue Ivy and Rumi.
However, the excitement of seeing Queen Bey got too much for some fans as they brawled with each other at SoFi Stadium following the show. A group of women, who were all dressed in denim and cowboy attire, clashed with each other as they screamed in their faces. Onlookers watched on as others tried to get the women to stop. One of the women appeared to walk away from the group, yet another Beyonce fan swooped in and smacked her hat off her head.
Someone else stepped in to de-escalate the situation, which failed. The woman who knocked the hat off then charged at another fan and pushed her to the ground.
As the concertgoer tried to get back to their feet, she was pushed back down by the same woman. Three others then joined in the fight as yet another woman was knocked to the floor.
A man eventually came in between them while a woman could be heard saying: "I'm mad." Another added: "What's going on?!" A man could then be heard quipping: "'Another show after the Beyoncé show?," as he helped a woman up.
Tensions finally cooled off when the group started to disperse, as shown in the clip seen by Daily Mail.
Earlier on the night, Beyoncé wowed fans as she returned to the stage and kicked off the Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin' Circuit Tour.
She was joined by her youngest daughter Rumi in a surprise appearance for the very first time. While Blue Ivy is no stranger to the stage as she has previously joined her mum with dance routines for previous gigs, Rumi was a little more excited to be standing in front of such a huge crowd.
The seven-year-old rocked a gold feathered dress as she stood by her mum's side. Rumi couldn't contain her excitement as she jumped up and down and waved at the audience.
Blue Ivy danced behind her famous mum during hit Protector and sister while Rumi continued waving. "Even though I know someday you're gonna shine on your own, I will be your protector," Beyoncé crooned.
At one point, young Rumi got overwhelmed and turned around to hug Beyoncé before Blue escorted her off stage. The family touches didn't end there as a montage of Beyoncé and her children, including Blue, Rumi and her twin brother Sir, played on the screens in the stadium at the end of the show.

Gabby Logan's blunt three word response to questions over pay on MOTD
Gabby Logan maintained a stern demeanour when asked if she was to receive the same salary as her predecessor Gary Lineker after she was confirmed as his replacement Gabby Logan's role as presenter of Match of the Day appears to have reignited the discussion over the gender pay gap within the BBC. Gabby, 52, who has been a recognised sports presenter for many years, is set to replace Gary Lineker after he stepped down from his coveted role on the BBC show in May. At the time, Gary was considered to be the highest paid star after securing an estimated salary of £1.35million a year. When speaking to The Times, Gabby was asked if she had also asked for the same salary. But her response was unexpected. She bluntly responded saying: "That's all sorted." And when asked if she could elaborate on her answer, her reply was even shorter. She said: "It's sorted." Gabby will be splitting her duties on Match of the Day and Match of the Day 2 with co-stars Mark Chapman and Kelly Cates. It has been reported that the presenters set up a secret WhatsApp group to discuss their takeover of the show and create more of a bond. But according to the Daily Mail, certain messages were deleted in a bid to avoid leaks. Despite presenting changes to the show, Gabby was keen to reiterate that the changes will not be huge. Speaking on the ainslie + ainslie Performance People podcast, she explained: "Nobody wants to throw the baby out with the bath water." She added: "It's a football highlights show, we've got the same kind of pundits… and it's all about the football. There are now so many great male and female broadcasters." She went on to explain: "But also, so many more females working in sports, not just in front of the camera or the microphone, but also behind the scenes. It's like any business, if you say we have a 50/50 male and female split but all the women are doing the low paid jobs, that's not 50/50, that's a hierarchy that's male-dominated." On concluding her point, she said: "It's been really good development to hear women's voices in your ears and hearing them say they're the director which is great. Hopefully it's a better environment than when we were starting out. It's definitely a much more positive place generally." In addition to her brief discussion of her new role with The Times , Gabby also opened up on her time on Strictly Come Dancing back in 2007. Her husband Kenny Logan also competed on the show and made it to the top five contestants. However, Gabby was unable to share the same glory as she was eliminated far sooner. She claimed that at the time she remembered crying into her sofa believing the public did not like her. She told The Times: "It was a harsh lesson, learning that sometimes not everyone likes you. You realise the parts of your personality that you thought were attributes as a sportswoman are not valued." She added: "I was told I was being too competitive, whereas I was thinking, 'I thought that was good. That's what I did in sport — and it worked — and that's what my husband is doing.'" Gabby firmly believes that there was a definitive cultural shift on the show as competitive women are now more "appreciated."

Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis' strange nickname for Camilla
Young royals - Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis - have a sweet nickname for their step-grandmother Queen Camilla, and it's not the first cheeky pet moniker to be adopted by the monarchy When the royals are within the comfort of their home, official titles are set aside. Each family member often has a special nickname, and Meghan Markle has even followed suit, affectionately calling her husband Prince Harry 'Haz' or 'H'. The late Queen was known intimately as Lilibet among family while Prince William charmingly dubbed her 'Gary' during his younger years due to difficulties pronouncing 'grandma'. The youngest royal brood including Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis too have their endearing names for the elders. They're privy to tales of 'Granny Diana' and adorably call King Charles 'Grandpa Wales'. The Daily Mail reports that this mirrors the name the young Queen Elizabeth gave her grandfather George V — 'Grandad England'. Yet, when referring to Queen Camilla, it seems the norm of 'grandma' or 'nanny' isn't used. Camilla, a proud grandmother to five plus the Cambridge children and Archie and Lilibet, Meghan and Harry's little ones, is known simply as 'Gaga'. During a warm exchange at the 2016 Royal Variety Performance, The Sun reports that Camilla informed Lady Gaga that her step-grandchildren affectionately called her 'GaGa'. And after young Prince George's arrival, the Duchess told the Daily Mail: "My own grandchildren call me GaGa. I don't know if it's because they think I am! It is funny but is still very sweet." Meanwhile, Prince George also had a charming pet name for his great-grandmother, the late Queen, affectionately referring to her as "Gan-Gan". Reflecting on family matters and the addition of Princess Charlotte in 2016, The Princess of Wales once shared: "It's very special having a new little girl...I feel very, very lucky that George has got a little sister. "The Queen was really thrilled that it was a little girl, and I think as soon as we came back here to Kensington she was one of our first visitors here. George is only two-and-a-half and he calls her 'Gan-Gan.' She always leaves a little gift or something in their room when we go and stay and that just shows her love for her family."

Kanye West's wife Bianca Censori shocks again as she pulls dangerous move behind wheel of Porsche
Kanye West 's wife Bianca Censori has pulled yet another eye-catching stunt certain to leave the public in a state of astonishment. Ever since they secretly tied the knot in 2022, Bianca has consistently shocked fans with the flesh-flashing ensembles her husband styles for her. Now, however, her conduct behind the wheel of her gleaming Porsche convertible may be the cause of further comment from observers. Bianca, 30, was spotted staring open-mouthed at her phone while she was driving the jet-black vehicle through Beverly Hills this week. She appeared to be flouting the California Wireless Communications Device Law, which prohibits using a handheld cellphone while operating a motor vehicle. Bianca's sighting comes after Kanye experienced his own bout of car trouble, as a photographer snapped images of the rapper's custom Maybach being towed away from the Château Marmont on Tuesday. New images obtained by Daily Mail show the luxury car owned by the 48-year-old Runaway rapper being put on the back of a tow truck and hauled away from the hotel. The venue – where Saturday Night Live legend John Belushi tragically overdosed in 1982 - remains a favorite haunt of Hollywood celebrities, but parking remains limited. The Bully artist was spotted with partner Bianca Censori earlier Tuesday in Los Angeles, after traveling to New York City earlier this month to attend the trial of Sean ' Diddy ' Combs, who he has professed support for publicly on multiple occasions. Daily Mail has reached out to West's rep Milo Yiannopoulos and the tow company listed on the side of the truck for further comment on the item involving the vehicle. West has remained in the crosshairs of controversy for much of the year amid a torrent of tweets propagating antisemitism, though he renounced those beliefs in a tweet last month. 'I am done with antisemitism,' he said in a May 22 tweet that garnered 167,000 likes from the influential artist's network of more than 33.2 million followers. The stance came in stark contrast to Ye's controversial one four months earlier: He posted multiple images swastikas, and plastering them on a number of clothing items he intended to sell. On February 11, the shop on West's Yeezy Website - which he advertised with an expensive ad in the Super Bowl - was taken offline by Shopify after he was selling a white shirt with a black swastika in the center. West spoke more about the controversy in a series of tweets February 20 - promising to wear the swastika shirt onstage at the 2026 Super Bowl. 'Next year I'm performing at the superbowl wearing my wittle T shirt,' he said. 'People with money bought my wittle t shirt.' He added that Shopify 'gave [him his] account back' after taking down his store after controversy erupted over the shirts, but that he was 'not going to use it.' The Anti-Defamation League said in a post on X/Twitter February 10: 'As if we needed further proof of Kanye's antisemitism, he chose to put a single item for sale on his website – a t-shirt emblazoned with a swastika. 'If that wasn't enough, the t-shirt is labeled on Kanye's website as "HH-01,"which is code for "Heil Hitler." 'Kanye was tweeting vile antisemitism nonstop since last week. There's no excuse for this kind of behavior.' The organization added, 'Even worse, Kanye advertised his website during the Super Bowl, amplifying it beyond his already massive social media audience.' Tal-Or Cohen Montemayor, the founder and executive director of CyberWell, an online anti-Semitism watchdog group, told February 11 that the organization made efforts to go over West's head and have the page removed. 'CyberWell reached out Shopify's compliance and safety teams to alert them to flagrant abuse of Shopfiy's services by in violation of the terms of use,' Cohen Montemayor said. Podcaster Van Lathan, who famously clashed with West in a heated discussion in the TMZ newsroom in May of 2018, was critical of the rapper's latest series of tweets in a post on the platform February 20, calling him 'the slow kid in the Black community's class.' 'I'm glad you're rich,' Lathan wrote. 'It seems to be the only thing you care about. Money is dope you can do a lot of stuff with it. Sincerely. We need it, as a community. 'One thing that's more valuable than money is people. I'm sure you'd agree no dollar amount can measure North's laugh, I'm sure you'd go broke to bring your mother back. I would for my dad, who I lost in '21.' Lathan told West he was 'trapped in an infant's bubble, where [he] can be reckless and careless and people excuse it because of affection. 'We realize this, and try to ignore you, until the baby picks up something sharp like Nazism, domestic abuse, etc. then we gotta child proof things until you stop crying.' Lathan, who cohosts the podcast Higher Learning with Rachel Lindsay, continued, 'You're right about one thing, I am a slave to capitalism. We all are. Gotta work. 'But No one is more of a slave than the man who puts money over dignity. No one. So I'll be a slave, and you be what you are, which is the slow kid in the Black community's class. Keep eating boogers Kanye.'
