Tina Knowles isn’t holding back when it comes to defending her daughter, Beyoncé, after her spectacular Netflix-streamed halftime performance on Christmas Day. Despite the widespread acclaim, some critics—like Dave Portnoy—had harsh words for the show, but Tina made it clear she isn’t here for the negativity.
The Queen Bey delivered an unforgettable performance during the Texans-Ravens game in her hometown of Houston earlier this week. However, critics quickly surfaced, taking to social media to air their grievances. Tina Knowles responded with a fiery Instagram post, calling out the haters for their contradictory behavior.
“It is mind-boggling to me that you would take your precious Christmas Day and watch a performance of someone you hate and you don’t think has talent so that you can go talk ish about it later,” Tina wrote, peppering her post with laughing emojis to underscore the absurdity of the situation.
A Mother’s Clapback
Tina didn’t hold back in pointing out the irony, suggesting that critics might be more obsessed with Beyoncé than they let on. “You cannot help but to watch, critique, and comment,” she continued, adding that their relentless trolling only made them look foolish.
Beyoncé’s Performance Reigns Supreme
Despite the online noise, Beyoncé’s halftime show was a massive success. Netflix reported that over 27 million viewers tuned in, proving yet again that Beyoncé remains a cultural powerhouse. The performance, which showcased her unmatched stage presence and musical artistry, left fans raving and shattered any doubt about her star power.
Queen Bey and the Numbers Don’t Lie
Tina’s defense and Beyoncé’s continued dominance in the entertainment world serve as a reminder that, no matter the detractors, her influence remains unmatched. With a loyal fan base and record-breaking viewership, Beyoncé’s halftime show is yet another jewel in her illustrious career.
