Snoop Dogg Headlines Netflix Christmas NFL Halftime as Fans Applaud Show but Report Audio Issues

The eclectic, Netflix-produced set signaled the streamer’s push to turn holiday NFL broadcasts into global entertainment events.

Overview

  • Snoop’s Holiday Halftime Party at U.S. Bank Stadium ran as a produced medley during VikingsLions, blending his hits with seasonal standards.
  • Guest turns included HUNTR/X vocalists EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI, country star Lainey Wilson, and a surprise finale from Andrea and Matteo Bocelli.
  • Martha Stewart opened the segment with a Snoop-themed reading before a staged performance featuring an on-field orchestra, choir, dancers and festive staging.
  • Viewers praised the spectacle and lineup, while many complained about low vocal levels on the Netflix telecast and some alleged lip syncing.
  • Payment details were not confirmed, with reports pointing to Netflix’s 2024 Beyoncé deal as context, and Snoop promoted the event with a new single, Christmas in Minnesota, released the day before.
