Beyonce makes surprise appearance at Country Music Awards
Pop superstar Beyonce helped celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Country Music Awards with a secret and boisterous performance of her song “Daddy Lessons” with the Dixie Chicks.
Beyonce hit the stage unintroduced when the show was about two-thirds over Wednesday, wearing multiple strands of pearls and a sheer, champagne-colored body-hugging dress. She looked happy and comfortable, dancing and clapping along with the performers who filled the stage. The performance got a standing ovation.
“Daddy Lessons,” on her recent album “Lemonade,” is as close to a country song that Beyonce’s ever released. The Dixie Chicks started covering the song on tour earlier this year.
Rumours that Beyonce would attend the show started only a few hours before it started and show organizers would not say when or what she was going to do. Then, right after a commercial and without any introduction, Beyonce appeared at the top of the third hour. Immediately, Beyonce started trending on Twitter.
