The vice president, 59, was given tickets to Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour concert from the singer herself, according to financial disclosure reports released on Wednesday, May 15, and obtained by NBC News

The concert tickets were valued at $1,655.92.

Financial disclosures from President Joe Biden and Vice President Harris are released annually, and neither reported any conflicts of interest this past year, per NBC. 

Harris previously shared a glimpse into what she and husband Doug Emhoff wore for the concert held at FedExField in Landover, Maryland, on social media.

She also shared in an interview with PEOPLE in October that one of the songs on the Renaissance album, “Break My Soul,” was particularly special to her. 

“I just love that song,” Harris admitted. “I play it all the time. I think it’s one of the anthems for women . . . when [Beyoncé says] ‘you,’ you could be life, you could be a person, you could be a situation. You will not break my soul. I can endure.”

Harris’ financial disclosure reports also revealed that she received tickets to an HBCU Celebration Bowl courtesy of ESPN. The game at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta featured her alma mater Howard University as they played against Florida A&M. Those tickets were priced at $1,890.
