Beyonc fans are finally getting some answers after a rumored DNC appearance from the superstar never materialized.

Many online were speculating that the Grammy winner would endorse Vice President Kamala Harris with a performance Thursday night at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, only for an enthusiastic Beyhive to go to bed disappointed.

Director Glenn Weiss and executive producer Ricky Kirshner, who were responsible for the entertainment during the convention, revealed Monday that Beyonc was never scheduled to perform.

This is the internet taking on a life of its own and people taking something as fact literally to the point that people in my booth are saying, Is she coming? You can tell me, Weiss told The Hollywood Reporter . And I would say I have no knowledge shes coming.

And they would say No knowledge? So theres something to know! It was pretty crazy, he continued. But she wasnt coming. In the end even TMZ [which first reported it] had to issue an apology.

The rumor spread like wildfire on social media and left countless fans convinced that the Texas Hold Em singer was about to endorse Harris as the Democratic nominee in this years election against former President Donald Trump , but Kirshner said he is still confused about how this happened in the first place.

We never put out anything about Beyonce, Kirshner told the outlet. We denied it every time the media asked us even though, by the way, people on my staff didnt believe me. I kept getting texts from news organizations saying, When is Beyonc coming out?

While rumors swirled on X, formerly Twitter, TMZ reported that Beyonc was getting ready to pop out, citing multiple sources in the know. The singer previously performed for then-nominee Hillary Clinton in 2016 and allowed Harris to use her song Freedom on the campaign trail.
