Beyoncé’s halftime performance at the NFL Christmas game was nothing short of iconic—but the spotlight wasn’t entirely hers this time. Her 12-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy, stunned the crowd with a surprise appearance that left everyone talking. While fans were thrilled to see Blue shine, rumors suggest Queen Bey might not be too happy about sharing the stage. Did Blue steal her mom’s thunder, or is this just the beginning of her own superstar journey? Let’s dive into the drama, the incredible performances, and the internet’s reaction to this unforgettable night.
The Baltimore Ravens vs. The Houston Texans football game took place on Christmas Day. And during the half-time, Beyonce graced the audience with her performance.
She performed some tracks from her recent album “Cowboy Carter”. Post Malone later joined Queen Bee for “Levi's Jeans” and Shaboozey for “Spaghetti”.
Beyonce also played "Jolene", "Blackbird", "YA YA", "My House", "Texas Hold 'Em". And one thing’s for sure, everyone loved the show because in case you didn’t know this was Queen Bee’s first live televised performance in four years. She was able to execute a wonderful show while enlisting Shaboozey and Post Malone to debut some of the tracks from her recent album.
She kicked off her performance in style, draped in a stunning white fur coat and a matching cowboy hat, riding a majestic white horse to the tune of “16 Carriages.” As she made her grand entrance through the stadium, she transitioned seamlessly into “Blackbird,” joined on stage by Tanner Adell, Tiera Kennedy, Reyna Roberts, and Brittney Spencer, creating a powerful and unforgettable moment.
She transitioned to the main stage, captivating the audience with her performance of "Ya Ya." She then moved over to the bleachers, where a vibrant scene unfolded with dancers and a marching band, delivering an electrifying rendition of "My House." As she strutted down a runway blending "Riverdance" and "Sweet Honey Buckiin'," Shaboozey joined in to add his flair. The night hit a high point when Beyoncé teamed up with Post Malone for a duet of "Levi's Jeans," performed beside a denim-covered truck that perfectly matched the night’s theme.
Beyonce also took a moment to address the audience before the live debut of “Texas Hold ‘Em.” saying, I’m so honored to be in Texas right now. It’s only right that we do ‘Texas Hold ‘Em’ for the first time in Houston, Texas on Christmas. Y’all help me sing!”
There was also another moment when Beyonce was lifted into the air and she said, “Merry Christmas, God bless y’all, thank you so much.”
According to sources, around 27M viewers tuned in to see Beyonce’s halftime performance.
What’s more, Queen Bee wasn’t the only one getting the attention. In case you don’t know, Beyonce brought out her daughter Blue Ivy for the show. In fact, she became the highlight of the show when she joined her mom during the “Texas Hold Em” performance.
The 12-year-old was dressed in all white and grabbed the audience’s attention as she danced effortlessly alongside Beyonce and the other dancers. What’s more, her chic look was completed with white boots, a glimmering belt, and a sash that had "Cowboy Carter" written on it. Her outfit perfectly matched the theme of the night.
And it looks like Blue left an impression. The internet has been talking about her and it looks like fans aren't as amazed by Bee’s performance as they were before.
However, fans are having a hard time believing that since this isn't Blue’s first time on TV. Fans recalled her standout moments from Beyonce’s “Renaissance” world tour back in 2023. During the tour, Blue danced to songs like “My power” and “Break my Soul”. Blue was able to prove that talent runs in the family with her youthful energy. .
She even lent her voice as “Kiara” in “Mufasa:The Lion King”. And get this - Oscar-winning film marker, Barry Jenkins praised Blue’s acting skills, ensuring fans that she isn’t only singing in the movie but also acting. He said, “Blue Ivy doesn't sing in the movie. She is a thespian! I gotta be honest about that. She is a thespian.”
However, fans are still not able to accept that Blue is making waves on social media. And it doesn’t seem like her parents are too thrilled about it either. A few months back a source revealed that the power couple wanted Blue to have a very private life. The source said, “Beyonce and Jay-Z are very private people, but Beyonce is the one who likes to be more private. Even when attending public family functions, she always finds a way to sneak in unnoticed. She tries her best to keep life as normal for her children. She was instrumental in choosing schools for Blue to attend and made sure to choose the most private school she could find so that Blue could just be a normal child in preschool like all the children her age.”
