Beyoncé pulled off a cloud-pleasing halftime show during the Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans football game hosted by Netflix Wednesday. The singer performed several songs from her latest album “Cowboy Carter” for the first time, including “16 Carriages” and “Blackbiird,” which she sang with Brittney Spencer, Reyna Roberts (who performed at TheWrap’s Power Women Summit this year), Tiera Kennedy and Tanner Adell.
The singer entered the stage on top of a white horse, referencing the album’s cover. She was joined by several more horses and people wearing cowboy hats, enshrouded in veils, and playing the violin before taking the field with dozens of dancers. Special guests included Shaboozey and Post Malone.
The setlist included: “16 Carriages,” “Blackbiird,” “Ya Ya,” “My House,” “Spaghettii,” “Sweet Honey,” “Levii’s Jeans,” “Jolene,” and “Texas Hold ‘Em.”
The event marked the first time Netflix has hosted NFL games. The Kansas City Chiefs kickoffed the afternoon of games, besting the Pittsburgh Steelers 29-10, and the Baltimore Ravens began playing the Houston Texans at 4:30 p.m. ET.
In a teaser for her performance, the star played her song “Texas Hold ‘Em” on the banjo. Netflix previously announced that the singer would bring out guests to perform songs from her Grammy-nominated album “Cowboy Carter.”
If you missed the games live, you can watch both (and Beyoncé’s performance) on Netflix for up to three hours following each game’s conclusion (which means the latest you can try to catch the singer’s show is 11 p.m. ET).
