Beyoncé Announces Christmas Day Performance in Houston, Teases Netflix Livestream Glitches
Beyoncé is bringing the holiday cheer to her hometown of Houston, Texas, with a highly anticipated live performance on Christmas Day.
The 32-time Grammy winner took to Instagram on December 24 to share an exciting update about her upcoming show, while also playfully poking fun at Netflix’s past livestream glitches during her performances.
In a lighthearted video, Beyoncé is seen strumming her guitar and singing a few lines from her song *Texas Hold 'Em*, when suddenly, a football rolls toward her. Just as she’s about to continue with the next verse, a red buffering circle appears on the screen, signaling a technical issue. The clip then cuts back to Beyoncé, who winks at the camera, fully aware of the glitch.
In the caption, the mother of three wrote, “I’m sending you big joy and love on this Cowboy Christmas Eve. I’ll see y’all tomorrow, in my city HTX.”
Beyoncé is set to headline Netflix's first-ever live hosting show, which will air on December 25, 2024, as part of the Christmas NFL Game Day celebration.
As the video went viral across social media, Netflix’s official Instagram account couldn’t resist responding to Beyoncé’s playful jab, commenting, “Now hold on…”
This humorous reference comes after Beyoncé’s past performances for Netflix, which were marred by technical difficulties that left fans frustrated. One notable incident occurred during her musical performance at the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight on November 15, where connectivity issues disrupted the livestream for viewers around the world.
