BEYONCE has transformed her current Cowboy Carter tour into a family affair – after spending an eye-watering $300,000 on hair and make-up for her kids.
The superstar’s epic tour launched on April 28 in Los Angeles, and while fans were treated to the usual dose of powerhouse vocals and jaw-dropping visuals, it was left to Blue Ivy Carter, 13, and seven-year-old little sister Rumi to steal the show.
Dressed in a matching gold, glittering outfit, Blue Ivy proved she’s inherited her mom’s fierce stage presence, dancing alongside her during America Has a Problem.
Rumi, meanwhile, made a heartwarming debut in the most heartwarming way, strutting her stuff for Protector.
Both girls stylishly looked the part, and The U.S Sun can reveal Beyonce went all out for her daughters with a full-on glam squad making them ready to party.
A tour logistics veteran close to Beyonce’s entourage with over 25 years experience says the superstar shelled out $18,000 in makeup alone, with two artists dedicated just to Blue.
They will cater for little Rumi when it’s her turn to appear, but that works out as a whopping $4,000 per day for the specialists.
With Blue set to appear on multiple dates during the 32 date tour, the bill for makeup alone is expected to exceed $120,000.
Hairstylists are also hired, and two stylists are on board for a cool $5,000 a day, and they can work with $65,000 invested by Beyonce on luxury hair products, custom styles and even gold accessories.
A stylist working exclusively with the girls is reportedly being paid $120,000 for the whole tour.
“The tour is a not that long, but there are many shows in same cities, which simplifies a lot of things and also makes it easier for the kids to be part of the show,” the source confirmed to The U.S. Sun.
“For them, the expenses are pretty important. A lot of money has been spent on make-up artists, on products and stylists who are paid very well during that tour to help the girls.”
Bey admitted in a documentary about her Renaissance tour in 2023 that she originally told Blue “no” when she asked to perform.
But after reading some brutal online comments, Blue decided to prove everyone wrong—and totally crushed it.
Even dad Jay-Z weighed in on CBS at the time, saying, “She was born into this life she didn’t ask for… everyone has an opinion. But for her to get on stage and take back her power- it’s iconic.”
