Tina Knowles trolled as she says ‘God’ will ensure Beyonce’s NFL halftime show on Netflix is glitch-free
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Beyonce's mother Tina Knowles was recently asked at ABC Studios if she thought there would be any problems during Beyonce's Christmas NFL performance, which would stream live on Netflix.
In response, Tina said that she does not fear anything because she believes that God will protect Beyonce's halftime show. "No. Everything's going to be good. God is going to be there," she told TMZ.
The Grammy winner is expected to take the stage and play songs from her most recent album, 'Cowboy Carter', at halftime of the Baltimore Ravens' game against the Houston Texans on December 25.

Beyonce to perform at halftime show of NFL Christmas Day game
A Florida man reportedly filed a class action lawsuit alleging breach of contract and deceptive conduct after Netflix experienced issues with its live-streamed Mike Tyson and Jake Paul boxing match on November 15.
However, Tina Knowles claimed that her daughter's upcoming halftime performance at the Houston Texans versus Baltimore Ravens game on Christmas Day, also set to stream live on the platform, will be flawless.
Beyonce was revealed on November 18 as the halftime show performer for the game at NRG Stadium in her hometown of Houston.
The game will be streamed as part of Netflix's first-ever NFL Christmas Gameday, per People. Netflix will also stream the other game on Christmas Day - Pittsburgh Steelers vs Kansas City Chiefs.
Beyonce is probably going to perform songs from her 'Cowboy Carter' album live for the first time during her halftime show. She received 11 Grammy nominations for the album and its songs.
Following the issues during the Tyson-Paul bout—which was watched by over 100 million people worldwide—some potential viewers began to wonder whether Netflix could manage the anticipatedly high viewership when the live sporting event was announced.
The Beyhive, as Beyonce's loyal fanbase is popularly known, is particularly worried whether Beyonce's scheduled halftime performance could experience the same buffering problems as the much-hyped boxing bout.
A surprisingly banal slugfest was interrupted by buffering issues and glitches during the Tyson-Paul heavyweight bout because a large number of people attempted to watch it due to the crush of interest and tune-ins.
According to local NBC affiliate WFLA, Ronald "Blue" Denton of Hillsborough County, Florida, claimed that the experience resulted in "over 100,000 people complaining online" about "streaming glitches and buffering issues".
When asked about Netflix's confidence in handling the NFL Christmas Gameday viewership, a representative said the company is "working with internet service provider partners to grow its interconnection capabilities".
