Beyonc¨¦ leaves fans stunned with NFL halftime show
NFL fans couldn't have asked for anything better than Beyonc¨¦ performing the halftime show for Netflix¡¯s NFL Christmas Gameday broadcast. This year, the streaming giant hosted two Christmas games: the Kansas City Chiefs vs the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens and the Houston Texans.
The 32-time Grammy-winning music icon came through at NRG Stadium in her hometown of Houston during half-time of the second game. Marking a first, she delivered live renditions of her tracks off Cowboy Carter, serenading the audience with a medley of songs from her latest album.

Amazing performance! I was so happy to see Bey and Post Malone together but it still bothers me how both of them made a transition to country at the same time and Bey was met with immediate hate while Post was welcomed with open arms. #BEYONCEBOWL pic.twitter.com/j40hys3V51

About the Thank You, Beyonc¨¦ trend
After P Diddy's arrest in September on various charges of sexual assault, a Thank You, Beyonc¨¦ trend took over social media, which had netizens thanking the pop star. The trend stemmed from a satirical conspiracy theory that suggested that the singer wields tremendous, almost godlike power, and those who do not thank her will have severe consequences. Internet users also shared videos after they noticed a pattern, pointing out that major artists often thank Beyonc¨¦ during acceptance speeches at award functions, despite their work having no involvement from the pop superstar.
