While I’m not a football fan whatsoever, I’m genuinely looking forward to the Super Bowl in February. Mostly because of Kendrick Lamar, who was announced as the Halftime performer. I’m so excited to see Kendrick’s set and whether he performs any of his Drake-disses on the biggest musical platform in the country/world. Everyone gears up so hard for the Super Bowl. But now people will have to gear up hard for the Christmas Day NFL game between the Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans. It’s not because of the football… it’s because of Beyonce. Beyonce will do her own “Halftime show” on Christmas Day!!
The NFL and Netflix delivered a gift to fans by tabbing Beyoncé to perform the halftime show for the Christmas Day game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Houston Texans.
Netflix will stream Ravens-Texans and a game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas. The Texans will host the Ravens at NRG Stadium in Houston, Beyoncé’s hometown.
Beyoncé will sing songs from her “Cowboy Carter” album during the halftime show, according to a Texans release, marking the first time she’ll perform any songs from the album for a live audience. She released “Cowboy Carter,” her eighth studio album, in March.
Well, that’s one way for Netflix to overshadow the Super Bowl, which is always on network television. Granted, Netflix has the money to spread around for this kind of specialty programming and sports programming. I also assume that Jay-Z – who is under an NFL contract to produce the Super Bowl Halftime show – approved and encouraged his wife to do this. This is all NFL-approved, is what I’m getting at. The NFL and Netflix are trying to create a second “Super Bowl” before the Super Bowl. It’s interesting. And I will be watching! I’ll be watching Beyonce, not the game.

I remember when football was only played on thanksgiving, but if you have to play on Christmas 🎄 then Beyonce singing the half time show would make up for it. 🎤🎼
I am disgusted by how the NFL does little to punish players who abuse their partners and children. Artist’s want the half-time platform and don’t care what messages it sends. They also sing for dictators, so, I shouldn’t be surprised.
Well merry Christmas to me. Doesn’t feel like much to cheer about this year but Beyoncé performing songs from cowboy Carter on Christmas Day in Houston? Yes please netflix I’ll be there. And with the ravens? Please. I still remember when Beyoncé shut the stadium down after her half-time performance. Times are not good. The nfl ain’t great. But I’m still excited to see Beyoncé preform songs that she has never publicly performed before.
She is really so random, a halftime show performance was the last thing I was waiting for Cowboy Carter album. I can’t even wait for which songs she is gonna perform from the album. I imagine she is also counting this as some promotion for Grammys. She literally didn’t do much for the album while being busy with promoting her hair products, whisky, or whatever else I missed. One thing I am sure, it is gonna be good.
As someone who doesn’t really watch the nfl, I think the Christmas half-time show is kind of a thing? I think dolly did it last year? So yeah, I think it’s going to be fun.
Beyonce has shown for the right amount of money she will perform. She will perform for a billionaire Indian wedding, she will perform in Dubai, and she will perform for a big Netflix check who needs to justify what they spent to get these Christmas games.
@SH, I mean, cool. It isn’t a weird concept that a popular artist says yes to a lot of money. I still didn’t expect to see her first live performance for the album on half-time show. I was thinking, it will be on her new tour, which wouldn’t be available to most people. So, I am happy.
MAGA is going to be all mad.
Who cares what they think. This is good news for Beyonce fans.
Here to say that Netflix better up “their game” before Xmas ’cause after the Tyson vs Paul fight, freezing up, I know I’ll be pissed (again) if there are issues trying to watch!!!!
I love the idea of Beyonce performing the Christmas half-time, but – jesus – TWO games on Christmas Day is just over-kill. I guess Bey’s game will be daytime and The Chiefs play at night when everyone is laid out in a holiday stupor? No wonder Donna Kelce said they wouldn’t be doing much else for the holiday.
