"Cause it ain’t selling"— Fans react as Beyoncé and TikTok collaborate to launch new profile frame for Cowboy Carter Tour
Beyoncé and TikTok have recently collaborated to put together an "in-app" experience for fans to celebrate the singer's ongoing Cowboy Carter Tour. According to Hits magazine, fans have a special opportunity to be included in the Fan Spotlight carousel during the concerts.
To stand a chance, they need to purchase the tour tickets, unlock the Cowboy Carter-themed profile frame, and submit their custom "YA YA" videos.
Netizens on X reacted to TikTok launching the special frame to celebrate Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter Tour. Among them, many alleged that these shenanigans are being used to lure people because the tour tickets aren't selling.

Several fans, meanwhile, supported the Lemonade hitmaker's initiative.
"Putting that cowboy hat to work in style. Beyoncé got TikTok on the trail now," a fan wrote on X.
"Beyoncé just turned TikTok into her personal stage — #CowboyCarter isn’t a tour, it’s a takeover," added another.
"These Comments And Sh*t From Stan Accounts Show…People Are Just Hateful. If The Artist Isn’t Your Cup Of Tea Keep It Pushing. But Coming Spread Hate Under Every Beyonce Posts Just Shows The Kind Of Terrible People Yall Are," penned a user.
The collboration had a mixed reception by fans.
"Not her tryna resurrect that flop album from the depths of the Mariana Trench," a user claimed.
