AUCTION SURPRISE: BEYONCÉ'S '23 TOUR

Blue Ivy engaged in a bidding war for a pair of her mother’s earrings at the 2022 Wearable Art Gala, which raises money for Tina Knowles-Lawson's WACO Theater Center in North Hollywood, Calif. But the big reveal at the auction was tucked away in a United Airlines package that included tickets to see Beyoncé on next year's as-yet-unannounced RENAISSANCE tour.

A bidder paid a reported $45-$50k for a package offering "a chance to see Beyoncé on her RENAISSANCE tour, starting in the summer of 2023, at any of United’s national and international destinations around the world.” The prize included two first-class tickets, three nights at a Marriott property and a guided backstage tour with Knowles-Lawson, aka Beyoncé’s mother. Will a formal announcement of the summer trek arrive soon?

Unfortunately for Blue Ivy, she’ll need a different set of earrings when she goes to see Mom perform; Mielle Organics founder Monique Rodriguez (pictured with Bey) paid $105k for the Lorraine Schwartz diamond earrings at the event, which featured performances by Andra Day and Chloe x Halle.
