Tea at the Tour Finale: Oprah, Gayle & Beyoncé Shine — But Meghan Markle Gets Snubbed?
Beyoncé’s final Cowboy Carter tour stop in Las Vegas was nothing short of legendary — and just a little messy.
Media Take Out has learned that Queen Bey closed out her record-breaking tour this past weekend with a glittering show full of cowboy hats, couture, and an avalanche of A-list celebs. The VIP section was stacked with some of the biggest names in Hollywood — Gayle King, Oprah Winfrey, Kerry Washington, Tyler Perry, Khloé Kardashian, and Corey Gamble were all front and center for the action. And yes, Gayle’s daughter Kirby Bumpus tagged along too, joining her mom for the ultimate girls’ night out.
Gayle shared a few snaps from the night, gushing, “Grand opening, grand closing! Here in Las Vegas with the cowboy crew to see @beyonce close out her historic Cowboy Carter tour!!”
But here’s where the plot thickens.
Noticeably absent from the all-star selfie lineup? Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. And the reason is raising royal eyebrows.
Media Take Out can confirm that the entire VIP section was purchased by Tyler Perry, who personally curated the guest list. And according to a source close to Tyler, Meghan did ask to attend. But her request was politely declined. Yikes.
So what gives? Isn’t Tyler the godfather of the Sussexes’ daughter and longtime ride-or-die for Meghan? Apparently, even fairy godfathers have to draw boundaries. Our insider spilled that Tyler didn’t want any “conflict” between Meghan and certain other guests in the section — and while no names were confirmed, the tea kettle is whistling in Oprah’s direction.
Yep. Word on the street is that Oprah and Meghan may no longer be on the best of terms. And with Lady O in the house, Tyler reportedly chose peace over drama. We’re not saying there’s a feud… but we’re also not not saying it.
While Meghan sat this one out, the rest of the crew partied the night away. Beyoncé delivered a high-energy, visually stunning performance that brought the Cowboy Carter era to a perfect close. Fans screamed, celebs sparkled, and Beyoncé, as always, reminded the world why she’s still the G.O.A.T.
As for Meghan? Let’s hope she had a cozy night in with Harry and a bottle of wine — because the Beyoncé bash was the place to be, and this time, the duchess didn’t make the list.
Stay tuned. This tea is just getting started.
