Beyoncé: Mom defends NFL Christmas performance | STERN.de

Tina Knowles (70) defends her daughter Beyoncé (43) after she was subjected to massive criticism for her appearance in the NFL Christmas Gameday halftime show. The entrepreneur shared a post from a user who supported the singer’s performance. “Regardless of whether you like Beyoncé’s music or not, she is proof that no matter how undeniably talented you are, people will always have something negative to say,” the post reads in part. For the user of the social media platform, it is “unbelievable” that the singer receives so much hate and criticism “for a flawless performance.”

“My thoughts exactly! It baffles me that you would take your precious Christmas day to watch a performance by someone you hate and don’t think has talent so you can talk about it later,” agreed Knowles under her repost and vented her anger. She found it incomprehensible why the critics even watched the halftime show. “Switch to a different channel when it’s halftime, watch silly cartoons or Bozo the Clown or something you can relate to and see yourself in.” Knowles herself learned a lot from her famous daughter’s “fighting spirit”: “When people give up, I work harder.”

As part of the Houston Texans’ football game against the Baltimore Ravens, Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter, as the singer’s real name is, performed on December 25th at NRG Stadium in her hometown of Houston, Texas. But while the media dubbed the musical event the “Beyoncé Bowl” in reference to the Super Bowl, public opinion was sometimes more critical.

“Nobody asked for this show. Not the NFL fans, not the players and I bet not a single player can name five Beyoncé songs. Please stop making football a circus performance,” said one Instagram user . “Damn, she’s good at lip movements,” commented another, suggesting that Beyoncé didn’t sing live. “Completely overrated,” “What’s that supposed to be?” or “That’s terrible,” were other negative comments.

The 43-year-old put on an impressive show in her hometown. After starting her performance singing on a white horse, Beyoncé surprised everyone with elaborate choreographies and notable guests: she sang their song “Sweet Honey Buckiin” with the musician Shaboozey (29), while she sang the music feature “Levii’s” with Post Malone (29). Jeans” performed. A special highlight, however, was the dance performance with her daughter Blue Ivy Carter (12): The mother-daughter duo performed a square dance with the background dancers to Beyoncé’s hit “Texas Hold ‘Em” and thus caused a stir a spectacular conclusion to the halftime show.
