After more than 30 years in the spotlight, fans finally have an answer to a question that has long lingered in the BeyHive: what is Beyoncé’s nickname?

In a heartfelt moment during Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter tour, Kelly Rowland—her longtime best friend and Destiny’s Child sister—let the charming moniker slip. In a behind-the-scenes video shared with fans, Kelly, dressed in a fabulous cowboy hat and pink furry coat, casually referred to Queen Bey as “Bey-Bey.”

Rowland was walking arm-in-arm with Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles, as they made their way backstage to support the Grammy-winning icon. The duo radiated warmth and pride while making a stop in Houston, Texas—Beyoncé’s hometown—on the way to Tina’s sold-out Matriarch book tour. The tour had recently included a powerful appearance from none other than Michelle Obama in Washington, D.C.

“Don’t miss it,” Kelly said, referring to Tina’s memoir. “But we’re going to see Bey-Bey perform, right?”

Fans couldn’t get enough of the sweet nickname, which adds a personal touch to the megastar’s larger-than-life image. While Beyoncé has always been a commanding and enigmatic presence onstage, moments like these offer rare glimpses into the tight-knit bond she shares with the women who’ve been by her side since the beginning.

Tina Knowles added to the excitement, teasing fans about what’s to come in her memoir: “We’re gonna be talking and chopping it up, telling those stories.”

From Destiny’s Child days to global domination, the sisterhood between Kelly, Tina, and Beyoncé continues to inspire—and now, “Bey-Bey” has officially entered the pop culture lexicon.
