Beyoncé is slated to be the halftime performer during Netflix's first-ever NFL Christmas game.
On Sunday (November 17), Netflix announced that Beyoncé would perform at halftime during the Houston Texans-Baltimore Ravens match-up at NRG Stadium on Christmas.
“Your early Christmas wish has been granted as Beyoncé will perform during Netflix’s first-ever NFL Christmas Gameday,” the streamer said in a statement.
Beyoncé and Netflix also released a teaser video for the performance on Sunday. The Grammy award winner caught a football while standing on top of a red vintage car and singing "American Requiem," the opening song off her latest album, Cowboy Carter.
While details of Bey's Christmas halftime remain "under wraps," the singer is expected to perform songs from her Cowboy Carter album for the first time since its release, per Netflix. The company also teased Bey bringing out some "special guests” featured on her latest album. Cowboy Carter's collaborators included the likes of Miley Cyrus, Shaboozey, Post Malone, Willie Nelson, and more.
The performance comes during the first-ever airing of an NFL game on Netflix. Netflix penned a three-year deal with the NFL to host the league's Christmas Day games. The Kansas City Chiefs will face off against the Pittsburgh Steelers at 1 p.m. ET before the Ravens-Texans game kicks off in Bey's hometown of Houston at 4:30 p.m. ET.
