The performance was part of Netflix’s inaugural NFL Gameday broadcast, a significant event that blended sports and entertainment. Beyoncé’s return to the stage was particularly poignant, as it followed her record-breaking achievement at the Grammy Awards earlier in November, where she became the most nominated artist in the ceremony’s history, with a total of 99 nominations.
