After lighting up the Super Bowl halftime in 2013 and 2016, Beyoncé is preparing to mark a new major sporting event. She will take advantage of halftime of the NFL Christmas game to offer a live performance and present her latest album, Cowboy Carter.
Not everyone will spend Christmas with family. Indeed, if in France and Europe the football, handball, basketball and rugby leagues suspend their competitions during the holidays, the situation is very different across the Atlantic. There, American football Christmas games are a true institution, as are the famous half-time shows. And this year, it’s Beyoncé herself who will host the “half-time show”!
The international superstar will perform during the game between the Houston Texans and the Baltimore Ravens. This exceptional show will stream live on Netflix on December 25 starting at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time. In France, you will need to use a VPN to access Netflix US and not miss any of this event. Otherwise, go to Netflix social networks (and not Netflix France!) to follow the show.
An ad in Texan style
The reason for Queen B’s presence at this match is simple: it will take place in her hometown of Houston, Texas, at NRG Stadium. A perfect opportunity for the singer to present her album live Cowboy Carteralready nominated 11 times for the Grammy Awards. Although details of her performance are few, Beyoncé is expected to welcome special guests who appear on this new opus, the second act of her musical trilogy Renaissance and an ode to country and its Texan origins.
It was on Instagram that Netflix announced the news, posting a promotional photo and video of Beyoncé in a red, white and blue leather outfit, continuing the theme she has maintained throughout her era Cowboy Carter. In the video, she is seen catching a soccer ball atop a car covered in roses and whose license plate reads “BRNCNTRY.”
