Beyoncé Knowles-Carter took the stage at NRG Stadium on Christmas Day performing the halftime show at the Houston Texans vs. Baltimore Ravens game.
The 32-time Grammy-winning artist began the performance by singing “16 Carriages” while riding a white horse into the stadium.
Knowles-Carter was joined by the four Black female artists — Tanner Adell, Tiera Kennedy, Reyna Roberts and Brittney Spencer — who harmonized on her cover of the Beatles’ 1968 hit, “Blackbird.”
Post Malone also joined Knowles-Carter on the field for their hit song, “LEVII’S JEANS.” The rapper matched her white ensemble with his own white bedazzled blazer and blue jeans.
She ended the halftime show in her hometown by performing “Texas Hold ‘Em” live for the first time, line dancing alongside her daughter, Blue Ivy Carter.
Blue Ivy previously joined her mom on stage during her Renaissance Tour in 2023.
Shaboozey also joined the halftime show after appearing twice on the “Cowboy Carter” album.
Knowles-Carter teased the show on Tuesday in a video on social media showing her strumming a guitar in cowboy gear before the video appeared to buffer.
After a quick pause, a chuckle can be heard before she flashes the camera a wink. “I’m sending you big joy and love on this Cowboy Christmas Eve ❤️ I’ll see y’all tomorrow, in my city HTX 🤟🏽🏈🪕🌵🎄,” she wrote, promoting the halftime event.
The “Cowboy Carter” singer first revealed her plans for the Netflix NFL Christmas Gameday performance in a video announcement back in November.
