Post Malone promised a “Texas big” halftime show performance at the Salvation Army’s Red Kettle Kickoff — and he sure delivered. During halftime at the Dallas Cowboys-Kansas City Chiefs game at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas on Thanksgiving, Malone played a medley of tracks from across his library, beginning with “Wrong Ones” from his 2024 country album F-1 Trillion.
Malone followed up with a return to one of his defining tracks, “Wow.,” during which a squad of Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders joined him on stage. He rounded out the three-set halftime show with another F-1 Trillion track, “I Had Some Help,” before closing out with a heartfelt message to his Texas team.
“I’m from Texas. I grew up a Cowboys fan and have been watching this halftime show for years,” Malone said in a statement ahead of the performance. “It’s a real honor to be part of the Red Kettle Kickoff with The Salvation Army and the Dallas Cowboys and help bring hope to so many people.”
The Cowboys announced that Posty would be performing at the game last week, sharing a silly trailer in which he’s seen driving a semi-truck alongside Cowboys mascot Rowdy as they crash into the parking spot of Jerry Jones.
“Bigger is always better. You know what I mean?” said Malone in the video before pulling up to AT&T Stadium and having kicker Brandon Aubrey sign a “delivery.”
“Let’s get big,” Malone says to end the spot. “Like, Texas big.”
The Dallas Cowboys are known for bringing A-list performers to their yearly Thanksgiving game: In 2023, Dolly Parton played a medley, and last year Jelly Roll joined headliner Lainey Wilson during her performance.
It’s been a big year for Post Malone, who hit the road this summer for his Big Ass Stadium Tour in support of his country album, F-1 Trillion. He closed out the run in London with a pair of shows at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, wrapping a trek that brought along Jelly Roll, Wyatt Flores, and Sierra Ferrell.
