Exciting Halftime Show for Christmas Day
LOS ANGELES (AP) — This Christmas, get ready for a special treat right from the comfort of your home! Beyoncé is set to perform during halftime of the Baltimore Ravens versus Houston Texans game, airing live on Netflix.
Netflix made the announcement late Sunday, revealing that the performance will take place in Beyoncé’s hometown of Houston on December 25th. Although specific details about the show are still under wraps, fans can expect an exciting presentation that will likely highlight songs from her recently nominated album “Cowboy Carter,” which earned her an impressive 11 Grammy nominations earlier this month.
In addition to Beyoncé’s performance, Netflix will also stream another NFL game that day: the Kansas City Chiefs facing off against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The presence of superstars at both events has fans buzzing, particularly since Taylor Swift has been seen attending Chiefs games this season as she dates tight end Travis Kelce. By Christmas, Swift will have concluded her Eras tour, adding to the excitement surrounding the NFL festivities.
This move marks Netflix’s continuing expansion into live sports and programming. Just days prior, the platform hosted a boxing match featuring Mike Tyson and Jake Paul, which concluded with a victory for the YouTube star. However, that event faced significant challenges, including numerous streaming and buffering issues reported by users, with around 85,000 people noting problems on Down Detector.
Notably, Beyoncé is no stranger to showcasing her talent during major sporting events, having performed at two Super Bowls in 2013 and 2016, making this upcoming halftime show an anticipated highlight for fans.
