The “Beyoncé Bowl” broadcasted on a streaming platform was worthy of a Super Bowl. The singer performed hits from her album “Cowboy Carter” and announced a date for January 14.
a texan queen at home
Who better than Queen B to deliver an American-style extravaganza on Christmas Day? Beyoncé proved she remains unbeatable in this domain, especially in her hometown. The star delivered a spectacular show during halftime of an NFL game in Houston, Texas, where she was born.
One of the traditional Christmas Day games on December 25 featured the Baltimore Ravens against the Houston Texans. Although the Texans lost on their home turf, the atmosphere was festive thanks to the “Beyoncé Bowl.” The singer fully embraced her Texan roots, as seen in footage available online.
a cowboy-themed performance
Wearing a cowboy hat and boots, she performed eight tracks from her country album Cowboy Carter, released last March. The match and show were aired on a streaming service, featuring prerecorded segments like Queen B’s entrance on horseback.
- Beyoncé arrived at NRG Stadium in a Mustang to the tune of 16 CARRIAGES.
- The football field transformed into a stage filled with dancers dressed in white cowboy outfits.
star-studded collaborations
Shaboozey and Post Malone joined the star for their respective features from the album, including SPAGHETTII / RIIVERDANCE / SWEET ★ HONEY ★ BUCKIIN’ and LEVII’S JEANS. Country singers Tiera Kennedy, Tanner Adell, Brittney Spencer, and Reyna Roberts also appeared in prerecorded video segments for a rendition of Beatles’ Black Bird.
a family affair
Even Blue Ivy, Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s 12-year-old daughter, took to the stage to dance during the final song, TEXAS HOLD ‘EM. Queen B concluded the show soaring above the audience on a platform that unfurled a red banner with “BANG” emblazoned underneath.
beyond expectations
For many viewers and fans online, Beyoncé outdid herself compared to her iconic 2013 Super Bowl halftime performance. Even Serena Williams and Christina Milian share this sentiment. The Cowboy Carter era has left its mark once again as fans eagerly await Beyoncé’s next move on January 14. Could it be another album?
