Beyoncé wowed fans during her debut halftime show performance on Christmas Day, bringing her 12-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy, on stage for a heartwarming and spectacular moment.
The performance, which took place during the Ravens-Texans game in her hometown of Houston, Texas, was part of Netflix’s first-ever NFL Christmas Gameday special.
The superstar made a grand entrance, riding a horse in a stunning white-feathered gown and a western hat, setting the tone for a breathtaking show.
Beyoncé opened the performance with “16 Carriages,” and as she dismounted the horse and walked through the back of the stadium, she sported a red, white, and blue “Cowboy Carter” sash.
She continued with a powerful rendition of “Blackbird” before thrilling the audience with more of her iconic hits.
But the show reached a new level of excitement when Beyoncé was joined by her daughter, Blue Ivy, on stage.
The mother-daughter duo performed an elaborate line dance, with Beyoncé changing the lyrics of her song “Texas Hold ‘Em” to reference Blue Ivy, singing: “Then spin me in the middle, Blue, I can’t read your mind.” Their joyful performance captivated the crowd and left viewers emotional.
