    I also thought she did a good job and wore appropriate clothing for a change. She showed respect. I liked it.

    For me it was the feast of super bowl and was't one for music any unknown very good popular singer could sing the anthem why because the rest of the year Lady Gaga does not represent US enough but more hollywood business

    Here’s Why America’s Sheriffs Turned Their Back During Beyoncé’s Performance

    Members of the National Sheriffs’ Association turned their back on Beyoncé Knowles this Sunday during her Super Bowl performance of the race-baiting song “Formation.”

    Specifically, the sheriffs, who were at an annual legislative meeting in Washington, turned off the volume and video to the television when Beyoncé began singing “Formation,” according to the Washington Examiner.

    Breitbart explained that a music video released for “Formation” last week showed police officers harassing young black people. It also included graffiti that read, “Stop shooting us.”

    The underlying premise to Beyoncé’s video was that police officers across America have been unfairly targeting black people for execution. This is a blatant lie that has been disproved countless times, yet racial grievance mongers like Beyoncé and her friends in the “Black Lives Matter” movement continue to peddle it.


    In fact, they even pushed it at the Super Bowl, where Beyoncé’s dancers reportedly formed an X shape in tribute to black activist Malcolm X. Moreover, her backup dancers were seen giving the black power salute while holding up a sign reading, “Justice for Mario Woods.”



    The San Francisco Chronicle reported last month that Woods was a thug who stabbed a random stranger and then threatened the police officers who tried to apprehend him — not that facts like this ever mattered to people like Beyonce.

    She and her husband, former drug dealer Jay-Z, seem to care more about hobnobbing with President Barack Obama and using their platform to further his divisive agenda than actually looking for real solutions to America’s problems.

    When it comes to the genuine truth, which is that race relations in America have worsened because of Obama’s race-baiting rhetoric, they care as much as he does — which is to say that they don’t care at all.

    Nation of Islam will protect Beyoncé: Farrakhan
    Beyoncé’s controversial performance at the Super Bowl half-time rubbed police personnel the wrong way, so much so that Miami police has decided to boycott the singer’s upcoming concerts.

    In light of this, leader of US-based religious group Nation of Islam, Minister Louis Farrakhan, offered security to the American singer during a sermon on Sunday.

    Referring to her as “my sweet sister Beyoncé,” Farrakhan explained that white people don’t know how to deal with Beyoncé talking about “black stuff.”

    He criticised white people for expecting sympathy for the Holocaust, but not giving blacks their independence. “Well, you taught us everywhere we went about the Holocaust. But we have sympathy for you. But when one of us shows independence — look at how you treating Beyoncé now.”

    Farrakhan offered Beyoncé protection with the security branch of his organisation, ‘Fruit of Islam.’ “You’re not gonna offer her police protection, but the FOI will.”

    The leader mentioned rapper Kendrick Lamar as setting a new high standard and claimed, “He freed rappers to come on up.”

    “When the rappers are free to say it like it is and say what they feel and teach their people through music and rap and song and dance, the cultural revolution is on,” he said.

    The leader added, “We say to the hip-hop community — to our cultural giants — say what you feel. Put it out there! With strength! … How you love your black self and you want to see black people free. We’ll back you up.”

    Beyoncé’s new single formation caused police uproar — it is a power anthem for race and feminism. The video for the song features graffiti that reads “stop shooting us,” following a confrontation in the music video of a black boy and a line of cops, suggestive of the Black Lives Matter movement.

    The hooded boy dances in front of a line of riot gear-clad officers who later join him in raising their hands — an apparent allusion to Michael Brown, who some initially believed had his hands up to surrender when he was shot dead by a police officer (That version of events was later challenged by federal authorities).

    The singer and her backup dancers also wore black berets, which also are being considered a Black Panther reference. Beyoncé is scheduled to play in Miami on April 27, Tampa on April 29 and Nashville on May 5.
