Beyoncé, the global icon, is gearing up to light up the NFL halftime stage this Christmas Day, December 25. After her unforgettable performances at the Super Bowl, she’s bringing her star power to a holiday doubleheader, live streaming on Netflix from NRG Stadium during the game between the Houston Texans and the Baltimore Ravens. Kickoff is set for 4:30 p.m. ET.
The anticipation is palpable as fans eagerly await Beyoncé’s performance of tracks from her groundbreaking album *Cowboy Carter*. Following its record-shattering release, which claimed the title of the most-streamed album in a single day for 2024, this will be the first live performance of many songs from this genre-defying project. The album has made waves by celebrating the contributions of Black women to country music, and it’s her debut in the country genre.
Beyoncé's creative collaboration roster for *Cowboy Carter* reads like a who's who of the music industry, featuring artists such as Dolly Parton, Miley Cyrus, Post Malone, and Willie Nelson, among others. With Texas being the backdrop, all eyes are on the possible songs from the album. "Texas Hold Em," which made her the first Black woman to top Billboard's Hot Country Songs chart, is a strong contender. The teaser for the show hinted at "Ameriican Requiem," the album’s opening track, setting it up as a perfect opener for the performance.
With several collaborative tracks from *Cowboy Carter*, special guests could be on the horizon too. Post Malone, featured in “Levii's Jeans,” is a likely candidate given his history with the NFL, and if Miley Cyrus joins, expect a rendition of “II Most Wanted.” Shaboozey, who recently made waves during a Thanksgiving game, could also make an appearance for “Spaghettii.”
Not only will *Cowboy Carter* be showcased, but Beyoncé has a vast catalog to draw from. Her past halftime performances have included anthems like “Run the World (Girls)” and “Formation.” Football fans and music lovers alike can look forward to an exceptional mixture of nostalgia and newness.
As the excitement builds for this unique holiday performance, fans can catch the show streaming live on Netflix, or on CBS in the competing teams' cities, also available on NFL+ for mobile streaming.
Beyoncé is poised to make this Christmas one to remember—don't miss the dazzling display of talent and festivity!
