The show was an absolute smash! Beyoncé lit up her hometown of Houston with an unforgettable NFL halftime performance during the Baltimore Ravens vs. Houston Texans game on Christmas Day. This marked her first live televised performance in four years, aptly dubbed the “Beyoncé Bowl.” Adding to the star power, Beyoncé was joined by Post Malone, who made waves with his mesmerizing performance as they debuted tracks from Cowboy Carter live for the first time.

Post’s energy and charisma lit up the stage, standing shoulder to shoulder with the iconic 43-year-old Beyoncé. As the performance aired, it dominated social media feeds, sparking conversations everywhere. Naturally, the WNBA community wasn’t far behind.

Lexie Brown, a standout guard for the Los Angeles Sparks, couldn’t help but join in on the excitement. After catching a glimpse of Post Malone’s performance, she took to her Private X account with a playful note, writing, “Why Post Malone look kind of…..🫦”. Her tweet immediately had fans buzzing, with some speculating about her interest in the rapper.

But let’s clear the air—Post Malone is happily taken. He’s been in a committed relationship with his fiancée, Jamie, since October 2020. The couple also welcomed a daughter in 2022. While Jamie’s identity has remained private at Post’s request, he’s often credited her with helping him overcome his struggles with alcohol. So, as far as Lexie’s tweet goes—there’s no chance of romance here!

Still, Lexie Brown’s tweet had a suspiciously flirty vibe

Lexie Brown, known for keeping her personal life under wraps, is reportedly single. As of December 2024, there’s no public information suggesting that she’s engaged or dating anyone. Brown has always prioritized her basketball career, letting her talent and hard work speak for itself.

The 2023 season was a career-best for the 29-year-old guard, with impressive scoring performances that earned her a two-year contract extension with the Sparks earlier this year. She averaged 8.1 points and 3.3 assists per game last season, though her early 2023 averages soared to 12.4 points per game before two separate pauses due to illness. Unfortunately, her regular season this year was also disrupted as she was sidelined with a non-COVID illness.

Despite the setbacks, Lexie has been making waves during the offseason. Just a few days ago, she inked a multi-year deal with Reebok, blending basketball excellence with bold, fresh style. This partnership cements her place as one of the sport’s rising stars both on and off the court.

So, while her X banter with Post Malone may have raised a few eyebrows, Lexie’s focus remains firmly on basketball and her growing brand.
