Beyonce has firmly dismissed rumors surrounding a possible 2025 tour, with her longtime representative, Yvette Noel-Schure, taking to X (formerly known as Twitter) to clear up the speculation. After the release of her critically acclaimed album Cowboy Carter in March, fans quickly began buzzing about the potential for a tour in 2025, fueled by her upcoming performance at the NFL Christmas Gameday halftime show on December 25, 2024.
In response to the swirling rumors, Yvette Noel-Schure posted a straightforward message: “Untrue. Nothing to report here. Whenever there is any news, you will hear it directly from the source first.” With this statement, the iconic singer’s team emphasized that while Beyoncé remains active in her music career, there are no plans for a 2025 tour at this time.
While fans were quick to speculate, the spotlight remains firmly on Beyoncé’s upcoming holiday performance, which is sure to captivate audiences worldwide. On Christmas Day, the 43-year-old superstar will take the stage for the NFL Christmas Gameday halftime show, an event that will be broadcast live on Netflix. This marks a new holiday tradition, as Netflix will be streaming two NFL Christmas Day games, with Beyoncé’s performance set to take place during the second game between the Houston Texans and the Baltimore Ravens at NRG Stadium in Beyoncé’s hometown of Houston, Texas. The game will kick off at 4:30 PM ET, and the halftime performance will be one of the most anticipated moments of the day.
This performance will be historic in multiple ways. Not only will it be the first live rendition of songs from her genre-defying and record-breaking Cowboy Carter album, but it will also be streamed live on Netflix, making it accessible to fans across the globe. The NFL’s collaboration with Netflix marks an exciting new direction for holiday entertainment, with the streaming platform’s first-ever NFL Christmas Gameday set to be a major part of this shift.
A recent article posted on Netflix’s Tudum news site confirmed the significance of the event. Produced by Beyoncé’s own Parkwood Entertainment in partnership with Jesse Collins Entertainment, the performance promises to be a grand spectacle, complete with elaborate production and high-energy musical numbers. The article also teased that Beyoncé will likely bring some surprise guests, including collaborators from her latest album, further fueling excitement among fans who are eager to see who might join her on stage.
Beyoncé herself teased the performance with an Instagram video that sparked even more anticipation. In the clip, she’s seen wearing a cowboy hat and standing behind a microphone atop a car adorned with red roses. The video culminates in Beyoncé catching a football, followed by the text: “Christmas Day, Houston, Texas.” The message was clear: fans should expect a performance that combines Beyoncé’s signature style with a touch of holiday magic.
For Beyoncé, this performance is not her first foray into NFL halftime shows. She previously headlined the Super Bowl XLVII halftime show in New Orleans in 2013, where she made headlines with a Destiny’s Child reunion, bringing her former bandmates Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams back on stage. Beyoncé also made a memorable appearance at Super Bowl 50 in 2016, joining Coldplay and Bruno Mars for a star-studded halftime extravaganza.
With her Cowboy Carter album already generating waves in the music industry, Beyonce’s halftime show at the NFL Christmas Gameday will be another moment in her illustrious career that fans won’t want to miss. Although she has firmly quashed rumors of a 2025 tour, her holiday performance promises to deliver all the excitement and spectacle one could expect from a global icon like Beyoncé. As the year winds down, this event is shaping up to be a highlight of the holiday season for fans around the world.
