Beyoncé strutted onto the stage at NRG Stadium like she owned the place (spoiler: she did). With her latest album “Cowboy Carter” in the spotlight, Bey graced the audience with hits like “16 Carriages” and “Blackbird,” delivering vocals so smooth they could’ve melted the stadium seats.
And just when you thought it couldn’t get better, enter Post Malone, Shaboozey, and oh yes, her 11-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy, showing off some serious stage presence too.
Naturally, fans flooded social media with reactions that ranged from awe to full-on worship.
One fan wrote, “Beyoncé is incredible.”

A few more fans chimed in with simpler but no less powerful reactions: “Beyoncé crushed it,” and “Nice halftime show today.” (“Nice” is a bit of an understatement, but hey, we get it).
Bottom line: Beyoncé made NFL halftime show history. The Ravens might’ve been grinding for playoff glory, but Beyoncé was the true MVP of the night. She ate that and left everyone else hungry for more.

Frustrated, Mixon booted the ball into the stands, sparking a confrontation with Stout. The tension escalated quickly, drawing in several Ravens players, including backup quarterback Josh Johnson, before officials and staff intervened.
The incident poured gasoline on an already intense matchup. The Ravens entered with a 10-5 record, while the Texans sat at 9-6.
Though the altercation didn’t spill over into the game, the tone was set for a fierce contest. This Christmas Day drama is a reminder of how every play and every moment matters as teams battle for playoff spots.
