During the show halftime show of the Baltimore vs. Houston game at NRG Stadium on Christmas Day, Beyoncé performed songs from her eighth studio album, "Cowboy Carter," for the first time.

Beyoncé took to the field in Houston at halftime of the Christmas Day game between the Texans and Ravens and unsurprisingly stole the show. It was a performance that easily would have been one of the — if not THE — best Super Bowl halftime show in the last decade, but instead we got it as a delightful regular season treat.
