Kelly Clarkson Kicks Off NFL Christmas Gameday, Joining Star-Studded Lineup
Kelly Clarkson is bringing the holiday spirit – and her powerful vocals – to the NFL this Christmas. She recently opened the Christmas Gameday festivities, a special honor made even sweeter by the chance to perform for her beloved Dallas Cowboys as they faced the Washington Commanders.
This year’s NFL Christmas Gameday promises a vibrant musical experience alongside the football action. Netflix has assembled an remarkable roster of performers to elevate the holiday atmosphere.
Here’s a look at the full lineup:
* Kelly Clarkson: Kicked off the day with a performance for the Cowboys-Commanders game.
* Snoop Dogg: Will take the stage during halftime of the Minnesota Vikings vs. Detroit Lions matchup.
* Lainey Wilson: Also performing during the Vikings-Lions halftime show.
* Huntr/x (EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami): The rising KPop group will add their unique energy to the halftime entertainment.
This isn’t the first time Netflix has blended football and music for a festive festivity. Last year marked the debut of Christmas Gameday, featuring unforgettable performances. Mariah Carey graced the stage with a rendition of “All I Want for christmas is You.” Beyoncé delivered a groundbreaking live performance of songs from her critically acclaimed Cowboy Carter album.
For Clarkson, this performance comes after a period of personal reflection and professional momentum. She recently completed a short residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, marking her return to the stage following the passing of her former husband in August. You may also recognize her from her popular daytime talk show, which continues to thrive.
Looking ahead, Clarkson is gearing up to resume her Las Vegas residency next summer, adding a series of new dates in July and August. It’s clear she’s keeping a busy schedule, balancing her musical career with her role as a beloved television personality.
