Cowboy Carter has officially arrived.
Beyoncé took the stage during halftime at the Baltimore Ravens vs. Houston Texans game on Christmas to perform songs from her hit album for the first time ever.
The superstar, 43, kept with her Western theme, of course, wearing a white cowboy hat with an oversized feather coat over and diamond necklaces, shedding her outer layer in favor of a bedazzled white bodysuit and matching knee-high leather and fringe chaps.
Tying her outfit together was an oversized, bedazzled belt buckle.
Bey performed “16 Carriages,” “Blackbird,” “Yaya,” “Spaghetii,” “Levii’s Jeans,” “Jolene” and “Texas Hold ‘Em” in a sprawling feat across nearly the entire field.
She was joined her on stage by the four women featured on “Blackbird” — Tanner Adell, Tiera Kennedy, Reyna Roberts and Brittney Spencer — as well as Shaboozey and Post Malone for her 15-minute mash-up on the Netflix live-streamed event.
Daughter Blue Ivy even joined in on the fun, dancing as part of a line during the finale song.
Plus, there were dozens of backup dancers, cowboys on horseback, carriages, a marching band and homecoming queens.
The livestream was free of have technical issues, which fans feared after the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight on the streaming platform on Nov. 15 that was plagued with technical issues.
“Everything’s going to be good,” Beyoncé’s mom Tina Knowles said in an interview last month. “God is going to be there.”

The mom of three announced her performance last month, eight months after releasing part two of the trilogy she started with 2022’s “Renaissance,” promising “some special guests who are featured” on the genre-bending album.
She teased the performance earlier this month, wearing a comically oversized white fuzzy cowboy hat and an Atelier Biser feather coat over white patent leather leggings.
It didn’t appear that husband Jay-Z was in attendance at the game to support Beyoncé’s performance.
Earlier this month, Bey took to the red carpet with daughter Blue Ivy as the duo celebrated the release of “Mufasa: The Lion King” in matching gold gowns. The singer voices Queen Nala while Blue, 12, made her movie debut as the voice of Kiara.
Jay-Z was also there to support, with the rapper and his wife hyping up their eldest daughter as she posed in her custom Christian Siriano gown.
