HuffPost
Rumors of a surprise performance on the night of Vice President Kamala Harris' historic DNC speech had fans buzzing.
Unfortunately, Queen Bey did not hit the stage at the 2024 Democratic National Convention on Thursday night, putting an end to tons of online speculation and some false reports.
In the days and hours leading up to Vice President Kamala Harris’ historic acceptance of the party’s presidential nomination at the DNC on Thursday night, rumors of a surprise Thursday night performance by Beyoncé (or Taylor Swift) had fans buzzing.
Citing unnamed sources, both TMZ and The Hill reported on Thursday that Beyoncé was the surprise performer, though no official announcement had been made by the DNC. And Rolling Stone reported that city officials were working to prepare for the prospect of Beyoncé’s arrival.
“It’s been crazy,” one person familiar with the matter told Rolling Stone. “People running the show and working here obviously will prepare for Beyoncépalooza… We just keep being told ‘I don’t know’ when this comes up.”
However, later on Thursday, a representative for the star shut the claims down completely, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
