Watch Beyoncé debut ‘Cowboy Carter’ setlist for hometown Christmas-day Halftime Show

Beyoncé has performed a number of songs from ‘Cowboy Carter’ live for the first time ever – check out snippets of footage and fan reactions below.

Bey celebrated Christmas by headlining the NFL’s Christmas-day game’s Halftime Show in her hometown of Houston, Texas. For the set, she performed a brand new setlist, consisting only of songs from ‘Cowboy Carter’. This marked the first time she has ever performed a ‘Cowboy Carter’ tune live since its release earlier this year.

The performance (and NFL game) were live-streamed on Netflix. International fans can stream the game and Beyoncé’s performance for up to 24 hours after its conclusion, while fans in the US will only be able to view it for a short number of hours.

During the set, which ran for under 13 minutes, Queen Bey was joined by the likes of Shaboozey, Post Malone, Reyna Roberts, Tanner Adell, Brittney Spencer and Tiera Kennedy. Her eldest daughter Blue Ivy Carter also joined along to dance to ‘Texas Hold ‘Em’.

To kick off the Halftime performance – which fans are calling “the best Super Bowl performance of all time and it wasn’t even the Super Bowl” – Beyoncé performed ’16 Carriages’. Other songs she performed included ‘Blackbird’, ‘YA YA’, ‘My House’, ‘Jolene’ and more. She was joined by Post Malone for ‘Levii’s Jeans’ and by Shaboozey for ‘Sweet Honey Buckiin”.

‘Cowboy Carter’ scored a five-star review from NME upon its release, with Jenessa Williams writing: “Even if interpreted only on the grounds of artistic spectacle, it’s an undeniable thrill to see her swing so big on a project that dares her to be so intimate and vocal-focused, while making way for country’s up-and-comers too.”

The album clinched the seventh spot in NME‘s 50 Best Albums of 2024 list, and ’16 Carriages’ was named the eighth Best Song of 2024.

In other Beyoncé news, in November she became the most-nominated musician in Grammy history. She previously tied Jay-Z with 88 nominations apiece, but has since been nominated for a whopping 11 awards at next year’s Grammys, all for ‘Cowboy Carter’. She now holds a record-breaking 99 nominations and in 2023 broke the record for most Grammy wins, taking home a total of 32 trophies.
