Ellie Goulding will still perform during the Salvation Army-backed Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving Day halftime show after a question over the charitys stance on LGBTQ rights.

The tradition of the halftime show signals the start of the Salvation Armys Red Kettle Campaign, which aims to benefit those in need during the holiday season a sentiment that Goulding, 32, said she was honored to be a part of when announcing news of her performance in early November.

Ahead of her performance set to occur during the Cowboys game against the Buffalo Bills Goulding even visited a Salvation Army soup kitchen and posted about her meaningful experience. However, comments on her Instagram about the organizations LGBTQ views later made the singer re-evaluate her Thanksgiving Day act.
