What does Beyoncé mean? We have to wait three weeks to find out, most likely, but her social media post simply saying "1.14.25" after the words, "Look at that horse." The cryptic message could be anything, possibly even a B-sides compilation of Part B to her 2024 album, Cowboy Carter.
The good part about the message, and exactly Queen Bey's intent, was that it stirred up her fans on social platforms. Was this simply Beyoncé favorite day of the year? If so, why? There must be a clue somewhere in her long catalog or recent comments. This is especially true as the message followed her ridiculously good halftime show on Christmas Day at the Houston Texans versus Baltimore Ravens game.
Beyoncé devotees responded with thories of their own on social media. Some ideas are even logical. Others are seemingly not. Although, if we have been taught anything over the last decade it is that anything that appears to strain common sense might also turn out to be true. That is the strange world we live in now.
Fans react to Beyoncé's cryptic social media post about January 14, 2025
One fan commented that the message meant that the performer was going to release a heavy metal album based on the font. That is likely not overly logical, however. No matter the font, Beyoncé is still riding a horse and waving an American flag while wearing a cowboy hat in the clip.
Another posted asked if the icon wanted her fans to storm the capitol much in the same way that supporters of Donald Trump did after Joe Biden was elected president in 2020. This, also, strains logic. The date would be different than what happened in 2021 (that was on January 6) and Beyoncé is not heavily involved in politics. A raid on the capitol would not be her style.
More in the realm of reality, one fan wrote, "Wait January 14th... Could that be a Cowboy Carter tour teaser"? Well, yes, it could. Maybe dates will be announced on January 14 with ticket sales to follow later that week.
Unfortunately, many of the comments also attacked Beyoncé and her husband, Jay Z. Some people get their "facts" from social media. If you do (and you should not), the advice would be to avoid the negative comments about the post. Some people just hate to hate.
