Is Beyoncé performing at tonight's CMA Awards? Randos on Twitter seem to think so!

She released an entire visual album/HBO special without anyone knowing a goddamn thing until it happened. If we know anything about a Beyoncéperformance, it's because Beyoncé wanted us to know about a Beyoncé performance.
Second, a visit from the Queen is not that far-fetched. Her latest album Lemonade includes the song "Daddy Lessons," aka the greatest country song of the year. And the ceremony will supposedly include an all-star tribute to Dolly Parton — Beyoncé has performed "I Will Always Love You" live several times.
So will Beyoncé be performing? (I Heart Radio says yes, but only cite "a source.") Or is she just in town, stopping through on her way to Ruby Falls? Is she buying Justin Timberlake's house? Or maybe she's kicking it with Jack White and Ruby Amanfu? OR IS THIS ALL A LIE, A PLOY DEVELOPED BY BIG COUNTRY TO GET THE COOL KIDS TO TUNE INTO THEIR AWARDS SHOW?! Well it just might work — the CMAs will air tonight on ABC at 7 p.m.
If you are in town, Bey, call me. I have leftover Halloween candy and Fresca!
UPDATE: We have confirmed with an anonymous source that Beyoncé will be appearing. And The BeyHivé says she will be performing with the Dixie Chicks, who've been covering "Daddy Lessons" on their recent tour. Ooooh ... it's all happening!
