Beyoncé Replaces Sphere With Allegiant Stadium in Cowboy Carter Tour Visuals After Cease-and-Desist
Beyonce's Cowboy Carter tour visuals have cut the Sphere after receiving a cease-and-desist, and replaced it with another venue.
In lieu of a ginormous Bey bending down to pick up the iconic spherical concert space — as was depicted in the original visual dubbed “Attack of the 400 Foot Cowboy” — she now reaches for Allegiant Stadium, seemingly edited overtop of where the Sphere was initially. Sunday’s show came two nights after the New York Post first reported that Dolan’s company had sent Bey’s team the cease-and-desist, alleging that “the prominent appearance and manipulation of SEG’s Sphere™ venue in the video [had been] unauthorized.” In addition to accusing the 35-time Grammy winner of showcasing the Sphere without permission, the letter also reportedly criticized the visual for supposedly misleading fans by creating “significant speculation that Beyoncé will end her tour with a Sphere residency,” despite the fact that the Cowboy Carter trek is actually scheduled to end with two shows at Allegiant in July. Following two more nights at SoFi Stadium in L.A. this week, Bey is set to bring the tour supporting Billboard 200-topping album Cowboy Carter to Chicago and East Rutherford, N.J., before heading overseas for performances in London and Paris.
