Beyoncé's Super Bowl halftime performance was a spectacle of music, dance, and historical nods. From easter eggs to pre-recorded segments, there were plenty of details to catch.
If Beyoncé is performing for halftime, you know you’re in for a very special treat. From her landmark two previous performances, Beyoncé has consistently delivered jaw-dropping performances that showcase her vocal virtuosity, dance skills and penchant for sharing important pieces of history. She treated her hometown of Houston, Texas, to an explosive medley, including “16 Carriages,” “Blackbiird,” “Ya Ya,” “My House,” “Riiverdance,” “Spaghettii,” “Levii’s Jeans,” “Jolene” and the.
Now that the world has had ample time to watch (and re-watch) her stadium-rocking medley, here are six things you may have missed from Beyoncé’s performance. Though Queen Bey couldn’t fit the track in her medley, she still dedicated a cheeky easter egg to the Grammy-nominated song. About a minute into her set, as Bey sings “16 Carriages” on horseback, there’s a skeleton cowboy in the shotgun seat of the slab parked to her right. It’s a nod to the lyric, “I’ll be your shotgun rider/ Till the day I die,” taken from the chorus of “II Most Wanted.”Always one to put on as elaborate a show as possible, the first two songs of Beyoncé Bowl were pre-recorded outside of the stadium, while the rest of the show was performed live on the field. To transition from “Blackbiird” (the final song of the pre-recorded section) to “Ya Ya” (the first song of the live section), Beyoncé’s electric band incorporated a snippet of the drums from “Freedom,” a Grammy-nominated track from her 2016 album. Interestingly, “Freedom” appears on the same album as “Daddy Lessons,” Beyoncé’s first foray into country music and the song she performed at her now famous Football halftime shows. Football halftime shows call for marching bands, and that’s right up Beyoncé’s alley. In 2018, she ruled the Coachella Valley with an instantly legendary headlining performance that paid tribute to HBCU band, majorette and Black Greek culture
