There will be NFL football on Christmas Day for the sixth straight season and the late-afternoon game this year will see rap legend Snoop Dogg perform during halftime, Netflix announced on Tuesday.

On Friday, Netflix revealed that halftime will also feature appearances by the singing voices of HUNTR/X from “KPop Demon Hunters” (EJAE, AUDREY NUNA and REI AMI), and a performance from country singer Lainey Wilson.

The game will be the second of a Netflix doubleheader, which will begin at 1 p.m. ET when the Washington Commanders host the Dallas Cowboys. The third game of the day — Denver at Kansas City — will stream on Amazon Prime.

This is the second straight year that Netflix will broadcast an NFL doubleheader on Christmas that features a halftime show during one of the games. Last season, the Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans met with Beyoncé handling halftime show duties at NRG Stadium.
