Crews 
Beyonce‘s ‘Renaissance World Tour‘ has been breaking records even before the trek hit the road earlier this Summer.
After breaking her own record as her highest-grossing tour to date, and reports that she was heading to a $500 million record just two weeks ago, Queen Bey has now surpassed estimates and just made music history.
Bey has broken the record of highest-grossing FEMALE tour of all time, besting a record previously held by Madonna. The news also makes her the 10th highest-grossing tour of all time.
