Beyoncé delivered an unforgettable halftime performance at the Ravens-Texans game in Houston, Texas, where she surprised fans by bringing out her 12-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy, to share the stage.
On Christmas Day, the music icon graced the stadium, making a dramatic entrance atop a horse, dressed in a white-feathered gown and a western hat. She opened her set with “16 Carriages” before transitioning to a soulful rendition of “Blackbird,” donning a red, white, and blue “Cowboy Carter” sash as she strolled through the stadium.
The show’s highlight came as Beyoncé closed with her hit “Texas Hold ‘Em,” modifying the lyrics to acknowledge Blue Ivy, singing, “Then spin me in the middle, Blue, I can’t read your mind.” Blue joined her mother for an intricate line dance before Beyoncé ascended on a platform, leaving fans awestruck.
The halftime spectacle was part of Netflix’s inaugural NFL Christmas Gameday, showcasing Beyoncé’s latest album, Cowboy Carter, live for the first time.
