Another person wrote: "Now why is the Renaissance horse on my TV screen? Beyoncé come get your sis! #OpeningCeremony." A third person wrote: "This is all thanks to Beyoncé btw.

When Beyoncé released the Renaissance album back in July 29, 2022, fans liked the cover of the album. The cover art showed the singer sitting on a silhouette of a luminous horse, blinding eyes with this shine and the singer sitting on it.

She then released Cowboy Carter, part two of the Renaissance album, on March 29, 2024. In the cover art, the horse was white with the singer dressed in her cowgirl gear – a red, white and blue long sleeved jumpsuit and a white cowboy hat, covering her long straight white hair. She also wore a satchel reading the name of the album, while holding an American flag.

Cowboy Carter made history with Beyoncé being the first Black woman to top the Billboard country albums chart since its 1964 inception. The album features country favorites like Dolly Parton, Willie Neilson, Willie Jones, Miley Cyrus and more.
