Beyoncé shines in ‘Cowboy Carter’ NFL halftime show with daughter Blue Ivy and surprise Post Malone duet: Live updates

Beyonce is set to perform an NFL halftime show on Christmas Day

NFL fans were in for a Christmas treat when Beyonce performed the halftime show for Netflix’s NFL Christmas Gameday broadcast.

This year, the streaming giant is hosting the two Christmas games between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens and the Houston Texans.

The 32-time Grammy-winning pop superstar, 43, took the court at NRG Stadium in her hometown of Houston midway through the second game.

For the first time ever, she performed live renditions of tracks from her latest album, Cowboy Carter. She delivered a medley of songs from the album, including “16 Carriages,” “Blackbird,” “Levii’s Jeans” and “Texas Hold’Em,” and she also welcomed guest stars Shaboozey and Post Malone. Her daughter Blue Ivy was among the dancers.

Beyoncé is no stranger to the NFL scene. She headlined the Super Bowl halftime show in 2013 and also made a guest appearance when Coldplay headlined in 2016.

Other Christmas Day performances included a pre-taped recording of Mariah Carey’s Christmas hit “All I Want for Christmas Is You” prior to the first game, and Grammy-winning a cappella group Pentatonix singing the national anthem at the second.
