7-Year-Old Singer Zoë Erianna Receives Beyoncé's Approval For Cover

Young singer Zoë Erianna, who previously impressed the judges on America's Got Talent, recently received recognition from none other than Beyoncé herself. The 7-year-old singer showcased her musical talent by creating a fully produced cover of Beyoncé's 'Texas Hold ‘Em' without the aid of sheet music.

In a heartwarming gesture, Beyoncé sent Zoë a large bouquet of flowers along with a note praising her rendition of the song. Zoë's parents shared a video on Instagram showing their daughter's interest in learning to play 'Texas Hold ‘Em' after hearing it in the car. Despite the challenges of replicating the banjo-heavy production on a keyboard, Zoë managed to self-produce an instrumental version that closely resembled the original track.

The video caught Beyoncé's attention, prompting her to send the young singer flowers and a message of encouragement. Zoë expressed her excitement and gratitude for the thoughtful gesture, emphasizing how happy she was to receive recognition from the music icon.

Beyoncé recently announced her upcoming country album 'Cowboy Carter,' set for release on March 29. The album features tracks like 'Texas Hold ‘Em' and '16 Carriages,' with the former already reaching the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot Country Songs chart. This achievement marks Beyoncé as the first Black woman to lead the genre-specific chart.

While details about 'Cowboy Carter' remain scarce, there is speculation that the album may include a cover of Dolly Parton's 'Jolene.' The country legend hinted at Beyoncé recording a version of her iconic hit during a recent interview, expressing her excitement about the potential collaboration.

Zoë's musical journey, from impressing on AGT to receiving recognition from Beyoncé, serves as a testament to her talent and dedication to music. As she continues to hone her skills and explore new musical avenues, her future in the industry looks promising.
