Beyoncé‘s daughters, Blue Ivy and Rumi Carter, stole the spotlight during the sold-out kickoff of her Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin’ Circuit Tour at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on Monday night (April 28).
Blue Ivy, 13, returned to the stage with her mother during “America Has a Problem,” executing the choreography with precision and confidence.

Other highlights from the electrifying show include Beyoncé riding a mechanical bull while performing “Tyrant.”
The footage included rare glimpses of her family life with JAY-Z and their children.
Though fans have long called for official music videos, Beyoncé has continued to share visuals through curated montages at her concerts and documentaries.
Despite rumors of low ticket sales, Parkwood Entertainment confirmed via social media that the opening night was sold out.
