Beyoncé didn’t ultimately show up at the 2024 Democratic National Convention despite speculation

Well, Beyoncé didn’t end up performing at the 2024 DNC after all.

Despite heavy speculation of a possible appearance, music superstar Beyoncé didn’t ultimately make an appearance at Thursday night’s 2024 Democratic National Convention finale.

Apparently, she was never on the slate to begin with for the event.

“Beyoncé was never scheduled to be there,” Beyoncé’s representative told The Hollywood Reporter. “The report of a performance is untrue.”

A possible appearance made lots of sense in theory once word spread of a surprise guest to close out the 2024 DNC. Beyoncé gave the green light for Democratic Presidential nominee Kamala Harris to use the song “Freedom” for her and Tim Walz’s campaign.

Outside of Beyoncé’s support for the Barack Obama presidential campaigns, the music megastar campaigned for Hillary Clinton in 2016 and endorsed the Joe Biden/Kamala Harris presidential ticket in 2020.

While it’s very much still possible Beyoncé will support the Harris/Walz ticket before Election Day, a DNC appearance wasn’t to be.

Steph Curry voiced his support for Kamala Harris during a virtual DNC appearance

Steph Curry made an appearance during the final night of the 2024 DNC.

Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr wasn’t the only member of his organization who appealed to the 2024 Democratic National Convention this week.

Warriors superstar Steph Curry made a virtual appearance on Thursday to show his support for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the upcoming presidential election for the DNCs final night, sporting his 2024 Paris Olympic gold medal in the video.

Curry compared the unity that it took for Team USA basketball to bring home the gold to the unity he feels Harris will bring to the country.

“This is about preserving hope and belief in our country,” Curry said in his remarks supporting Harris’ candidacy for president. “In the words of Michelle Obama, do something! Go vote. Be active. Let’s show out in November like never before.”

All signs point to Beyoncé as the 2024 Democratic National Convention’s surprise guest on its final night

It sure looks like Beyoncé will make a surprise appearance on the final night of the 2024 DNC.

To close out the 2024 Democratic National Convention, a special guest has been tipped for the final night.

After CNN reported that a block of time during the 2024 DNC’s final night had been reserved for a surprise appearance, lots of guesses filled the air as to who it might be.

Well, all signs point to it being Beyoncé, who has given the green light for Democratic Presidential nominee Kamala Harris to use the song “Freedom” for her and Tim Walz’s campaign.

Outside of Beyoncé’s support for the Barack Obama presidential campaigns, the music megastar campaigned for Hillary Clinton in 2016 and endorsed the Joe Biden/Kamala Harris presidential ticket in 2020.

Two big hints came on Thursday afternoon after Rep. Fentrice Driskell filmed a band practicing Beyoncé’ songs on the DNC stage and White House Political Director Emmy Ruiz shared a bee emoji, which hints to the “Queen Bey” nickname and the “Beyhive” of Beyoncé fans.

We’ll know soon enough once the final night of the DNC kicks off in Chicago at the United Center, one where Harris will formally accept her party’s nomination for president and deliver her keynote address.
