Beyoncé pleasantly surprised fans with an exclusive video announcement during the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, where “Today” show anchor Hoda Kotb hosted the event.
In her warm message, the musical icon conveyed, “Hey, it’s Beyoncé wishing you and your family a very happy Thanksgiving. I’m so honored to share with you the first look at the RENAISSANCE film trailer.”
The footage showcased a special appearance by Beyoncé’s daughter, Rumi, capturing her mother on camera. This led to a sweet moment where Beyoncé guided Rumi on using the camera correctly, saying, “Can I teach you a trick? You have to turn it [the camera]to the side. Yeah, there we go.” The clip also featured guest appearances by Megan Thee Stallion and Diana Ross.
In a reflective voiceover, Beyoncé shared thoughts on her journey, stating, “I have nothing to prove to anyone at this point. We are creating our own world. This is my reward. No one can take that away from me.”
“When I am performing, I am nothing but free. The goal for this tour was to create a place where everyone is free and no one is judged,” Beyoncé added. “You’re unique. Start over, start fresh, create the new — that’s what the Renaissance is about.”
Beyoncé’s “RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR” concluded on Oct. 1, with the upcoming film scheduled for release on Dec. 1. The movie will showcase performances from the opening show in Stockholm, Sweden, to the final show in Kansas City, Missouri, including segments from the visual album. It will also provide a documentary-style glimpse into the album’s creation.
The premiere for RENAISSANCE: A FILM BY BEYONCÉ is set for Los Angeles on Saturday (Nov. 25), with another event following on Nov. 30 in London. Secure your tickets now, starting at $22.
