Christmas Day came with a Beyoncé performance that was befitting of a Super Bowl halftime show.
But one notable sports media figure was not a fan of the iconic singer’s performance.
In fact, Dave Portnoy believes Beyoncé hasn’t delivered much in over a decade.
As Beyonce performed hits from her Cowboy Carter album at NRG Stadium in Houston at halftime of the Texans-Ravens game, the Barstool Sports founder took to social media to give his thoughts.
“Beyoncé has been LOST since Destinys Child,” Portnoy wrote on X about the singer’s former music group, which officially disbanded 18 years ago.
The high-production show — as part of Netflix’s exclusive Christmas slate of games — also featured appearances from Post Malone, Shaboozey, Reyna Roberts, Tanner Adell, Brittney Spencer, and Tiera Kennedy.
Beyoncé’s daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, even showed up to dance.
The setlist included the hit song “Texas Hold ‘Em,” but that did not stop Portnoy from his critiques.
“Shred line is open for that Beyoncé performance,” he wrote in a follow-up post to promote a call-in show he helps host with ex-NFL coach Jon Gruden.
It’s not the first time Portnoy has held this belief, as during Super Bowl 2023, he wrote: “Rihanna > Beyoncé. Not particularly close,” during the former’s halftime show.
Whether Portnoy is a fan of the singer or not, Beyoncé has been a popular fixture for the NFL, performing at the 2013 Super Bowl before appearing as a guest star alongside Bruno Mars and Coldplay three years later.
Beyonce’s husband, rapper and music mogul Jay-Z, has had a relationship with the NFL since 2019 in which his Roc Nation company produces entertainment for the league, including the Super Bowl halftime show.
