Pop singer Beyoncé rocked the stage with a stunning halftime performance during the Christmas Day NFL game between the Houston Texans and Baltimore Ravens at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas. The singer performed songs from her latest album, Cowboy Carter. However, what caught the most attention was a hand gesture Beyoncé made during her act.As she began to wrap up her performance, elevated above the field on a scaffold, a large "Bang" banner unfolded behind her. At that moment, she performed a finger-gun motion with her hands.The gesture sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with users poking fun at the 43-year-old singer.

One user on X said, "The way Beyonce single-handedly brought back finger guns, gotta give it up."

Another person commented, "Is NFL going to fine Beyonce for finger guns?""Where is the flag on Beyonce for the finger guns?!?!" wrote a third person.

"I want to call a flag for the gun sign Beyonce through out to the crowd at NFL. If players can't celebrate like this, why allow it," added a fourth person on the Elon Musk-led website. Why Is The Gun Gesture Banned In NFL?Any form of gun symbolism during an NFL game carries a 15-yard penalty for unsportsmanlike behavior.The NFL implemented the ban on gestures referencing violence to promote a friendly and respectful image. However, this decision has drawn criticism from players, fans, and officials across the league, who argue that the rule overreaches and stifles self-expression.
