As the US presidential elections heat up and celebrities from music and Hollywood get caught up in the excitement, Beyoncé’s fandom has been especially in the spotlight. Recent reports hinted at her arrival in Chicago for the final night of the Democratic National Convention, with various outlets sharing clips of her convoy making its way through the city. While fans eagerly await the big moment, a new update has brought some unexpected disappointment.

Just hours ago, fans were lamenting the last-minute notice of Beyoncé’s performance, which gave them barely any time to prepare. Now, their complaints might shift, as their hurried preparations are at risk of falling apart.

Not so long ago, TMZ reported that Beyoncé was set to surprise as a performer at the Democratic National Convention’s final night in Chicago followed by updates through other outlets about spotting her car in the city. However, The Hollywood Reporter has since clarified the situation. According to a spokesperson for Beyoncé, "Beyoncé was never scheduled to be there," indicating that the earlier reports about her performance were completely false.

While rumors had evolved into reports about the country music star’s attendance and performance at this year’s Democratic National Convention to celebrate Vice President Kamala Harris’ historic presidential nomination, recent updates have disappointed Beyoncé’s fans, who had scrambled to accommodate her anticipated performance. On Wednesday, it was announced that Pink would headline before Harris' speech. By Thursday, however, her performance had been allegedly moved up to build excitement for a special surprise guest later in the evening.

With the clarification ruling out one rumored performer for the final night, it also appears that Taylor Swift is not involved in the event.

Speculation had swirled throughout the week about whether Beyoncé or Taylor Swift would make a surprise appearance on the final night of the Democratic National Convention. While false reports had Beyoncé fans in a frenzy, Swifties had been dispelled from the excitement much earlier. A representative from the Democratic National Convention told Deadline that, despite the admiration for the 34-year-old singer, having her as a guest performer could potentially "overshadow everything."

Considering her star power and headline-worthy status, the representative pointed out that Taylor Swift’s presence could shift the focus away from Kamala Harris. Given this could undermine Harris’ bid for the White House, Swift's attendance seems highly unlikely. With recent reports also clarifying Beyoncé’s absence, fans now have more than one reason to express their disappointment.
