Beyoncé will return to the halftime stage, although not for the Super Bowl. The superstar will instead perform during the NFL Christmas Gameday.
She will grace the stage as the Houston Texans host the Baltimore Ravens on the holiday. The game will be streamed live on Netflix and feature Beyoncé as its halftime performer as a gift to her wide fanbase.
The singer revealed the breaking news in a clip on social media. It showed the Grammy winner in a dress iteration of her “Cowboy Carter” album cover outfit. In a nod to the occasion, she caught a football while standing on top of a rose-covered car.
Her performance will mark the first live show for “Cowboy Carter.” The country-infused album also placed Beyoncé in the lead for 2025 Grammy nominations. Her self-owned Parkwood Entertainment will produce the show alongside Jesse Collins Entertainment.
However, no details on the performance have been revealed to the public. Despite this, the Hollywood Reporter detailed that special guests are expected to show up on stage with the “Texas Hold ‘Em” singer.
The game’s debut on Netflix is also historical. Netflix inked the deal in May to stream both of the NFL’s 2024 Christmas games to its over 238 million subscribers. It will also showcase other games in 2025 and 2026, shaping itself as a new streamer in the pool for live sports hosting.
However, concerns still loom over Netflix’s ability to stream for such a large number of viewers. The fears sparked after the streamer faced technical difficulties while showing the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight on Nov. 15.
Despite concerns, on Christmas Day, Netflix will show Beyoncé’s return to football at the Ravens-Texans game at 4:30 pm Eastern Time. The streamer will also broadcast the Christmas game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Pittsburgh Steelers earlier that day.
