It was an unforgettable experience for American singer Beyoncé when legend Diana Ross decided to celebrate the 42nd birthday of Beyoncé with a surprise appearance on stage at the Renaissance World Tour show in Los Angeles. Ross captivated the audience with a dazzling rendition of “Happy Birthday”.
The 79-year-old legend caught fans by surprise when she joined the scheduled intermissions of the Renaissance World Tour in front of 60,000 enthusiastic attendees. Normally, Beyoncé’s backup singers perform the transition with Ross’ 1976 hit “Love Hangover” serving as an interlude. However, this time, Ross personally took the stage to delight the audience, according to Billboard.
Following her performance, Ross received an emotional hug from Beyoncé on stage. Ross then led the crowd at SoFi Stadium, including stars like Adele, Lizzo, Katy Perry, Normani, Brandy, Chris Rock, Kim Kardashian, and celebrity couples like Justin and Hailey Bieber, Zendaya and Tom Holland, in a rendition of “Happy Birthday” for the pop star. Additionally, fans noticed Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner sharing a kiss in the audience, adding to the star-studded atmosphere.
