One thing about Ms. Tina Knowles — she doesn’t play when it comes to her daughters. She proved that again, standing ten toes down in support of Beyoncé’s epic Halftime Show performance at the Texans vs. Ravens game on Christmas Day.

Tina Knowles Defends Beyoncé’s Halftime Performance
Queen Bey had the internet going OFF after shutting down the NFL game with her electrifying hometown performance. While her stage presence got plenty of love, a few haters were inevitable. That’s why her mom, Tina Knowles, has stepped in to defend her daughter like a true Mama Bear!
Ms. Tina hit up Instagram to share a repost from user @iamkrisiman, who praised Bey for staying authentic despite the negativity. Her post also highlighted how, no matter how flawless Beyoncé’s performance or how hard she works, critics will always find something to nitpick. Tina cosigned the message but called out trolls for tuning in to Bey’s performance just to throw shade. She even added that they must low-key admire her if they go out of their way to watch and criticize.
“Repost : My sentiments exactly! 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😂😂Obviously you are so obsessed with them , addicted to them , and secretly admire them , wish you could be them, that you cannot help but to watch and critique and comment and say dumb ridiculous stuff that makes you look like a joke!!”
Ms. Tina made it clear her message was “said with love.” However, she didn’t hold back, telling the haters to stick to watching something more their speed — like goofy cartoons — if they had a problem with Bey’s performance.
“So go to another channel when it’s halftime watch goofy cartoons or Bozo the clown or something you can relate to and see yourself in. Said with love❤️❤️ PS I have learned so much from her warrior spirit, of when they go low I work harder “No weapon formed against me shall prosper” one, two, three waiting for the fake bots to come,” Knowles continued.
