Beyoncé has trolled Netflix in a hilarious teaser trailer for her upcoming Cowboy Christmas performance.
Beyoncé looked incredible as she strummed a banjo while wearing an elaborate outfit while teasing her festive halftime act for the second NFL game on Christmas Day.
However, all was not as it seemed as the teaser trailer suddenly stopped and showed a loading screen.
This was a deliberate cheeky joke aimed at Netflix, which was made clear as the Renaissance singer could be heard giggling while the video still appeared to be buffering.
The video then quickly restored and the singer winked and smiled at the camera.
‘now hold on…’ commented Netflix on this tweet that fans are loving.

The joke was referencing the criticism recently aimed at Netflix after the Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul fight stream crashed during the live stream on the platform.
Thousands of people took to X to report problems with the streaming giant during the fight.
With Netflix broadcasting a major boxing event for the first time, lagging issues and frozen pictures were reported with sound problems also creeping in during coverage.
This left several fans disappointed after the fight, which was not the best start for Netflix as they introduced live sporting events to their platform.
