Beyoncé is set to grace your living room this Christmas, provided you have Netflix and tune into the Baltimore Ravens-Houston Texans game. Netflix announced late Sunday that the megastar will perform during halftime of the Christmas Day matchup in her hometown of Houston.
While the streaming service held back specifics about the performance, they hinted it could feature guest appearances from her “Cowboy Carter” album, which recently earned her a leading 11 Grammy nominations. This tantalizing possibility has already generated buzz among fans eagerly anticipating the festive show.
This Christmas, Netflix is venturing further into live sports by streaming two NFL games. The first game will feature the Kansas City Chiefs taking on the Pittsburgh Steelers. This setup hints at the potential involvement of another major celebrity, Taylor Swift, who has been closely linked to Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce and could be free to attend as her Eras tour wraps up before the holiday.
These NFL broadcasts mark Netflix’s continuing expansion into live sports and shows. The announcement follows closely on the heels of a Netflix-streamed boxing event, featuring a bout between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul. Unfortunately, that stream faced significant technical difficulties, with over 85,000 users reporting streaming and buffering issues on Down Detector.
Beyoncé, who has previously dazzled audiences at two Super Bowls in 2013 and 2016, is now poised to add another memorable performance to her illustrious career. This Christmas Day halftime show promises to be an extraordinary experience for fans watching from home.
