The announcement had been highly anticipated since Christmas Day, when Beyonce shared a cryptic video featuring herself riding a white horse, which ended with the date January 14.
This cryptic teaser sparked speculation that the superstar might be unveiling new tour dates for her 2023 album 'Cowboy Carter'.
However, with the wildfires continuing to wreak havoc in the area, Beyonce delayed the announcement.
In the comments section of her post, the singer revealed that her charitable foundation, BeyGOOD, had already donated USD 2.5 million to aid families who have lost their homes and to assist community organizations that are providing immediate relief.
