Beyoncé fans are eagerly awaiting the start of her Cowboy Carter Tour, but everyone around her is sworn to secrecy — including her closest collaborators.
“I can’t tell you anything,” Tanner Adell exclusively told Us Weekly at the Billboard Women in Music event on Saturday, March 29. “Don’t even try!”
Adell, 24, sang with Beyoncé, 43, on the latter’s cover of “Blackbird” by The Beatles, which appeared on last year’s Cowboy Carter. The track also featured Reyna Roberts, Tiera Kennedy and Brittney Spencer. While no one knows whether the quartet will join Queen B on tour, the Beyhive is hopeful that the four country singers have at least recorded a video interlude for the concert.
While Adell said she could share “nothing,” she noted she can’t wait for the Cowboy Carter Tour either.
“I’m very excited!” she told Us at the YouTube Theater in Inglewood, California. “I love Beyoncé.”

Tanner Adell doesn’t want to share the details of her collaboration with Beyoncé. “Honestly, I’m gonna keep that to myself,” Adell, 28, exclusively told Us Weekly on Sunday, June 30, during the BET Awards at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. “But just envision; use your imagination. That’s how I was feeling.” The “Buckle Bunny” […]
Earlier this month, Adell released her new single, “Going Blonde,” which she described to Us as a song ready for those moments when you “want a good cry.”
“It’s about a relationship that I didn’t get to have that I really looked forward to my whole life and finding out that I wouldn’t be meeting my birth mother,” she explained. “I was adopted, so finding that out just kind of sent me into a little bit of a tailspin. But I only had pictures of her and she had this gorgeous hair, but it was bleached blonde to the gods and I was like, ‘That’s iconic, and I’m going to use that as a way to keep her close to me.’ So I decided I want [to be] blonde.”
Adell wrote the song four years ago and wasn’t sure she’d ever release it, but she decided the time was finally right.
“I learned that I am doing music because I love music and not because I want any sort of recognition or attention, but truly because it’s what heals me,” she said. “And with this song specifically, I didn’t know if anyone would ever hear it, but as I had more and more impressions with people, I just realized it was something that people needed and that I think a lot of people will benefit from.”

It’s Beyoncé’s rodeo, and everyone’s invited! Beyoncé, 42, dropped Cowboy Carter on Friday, March 29, the second installment in the trilogy that began with Renaissance in 2022. The country-flavored album lassoed in stars from all across the music world to help make it one of the year’s biggest pop culture events. From Dolly Parton to […]
The singer-songwriter’s fans are waiting patiently for another album following the release of 2023’s Buckle Bunny, and Adell promises that more new music is coming now that she’s signed with a new record label. (She inked a deal with Love Renaissance, a.k.a. LVRN Records, last year.)
“LVRN is incredible. I am so lucky to be with them, especially with my story,” she told Us. “I told them about ‘Going Blonde’ and the album that would come with it, and they were so supportive and so careful about it. They didn’t rush me and waited until I was really ready to do it. And so here we are going in together with ‘Going Blonde.’”
