If you watched the Super Bowl this weekend — and it’s likely you did — you very well may have been subject to a subtle, yet prominent attack on American police officers.
During the half-time show, Beyoncé performed her surprise new single “Formation” in a collaborative show with both Coldplay and fellow Super Bowl alum Bruno Mars. While the performance seemed innocent enough at first glance, a deep dive into the subject matter reveals a much more political message than you may have initially noticed.
First, her clothes. While criticized initially criticized as just plain odd, then as an homage to the late Michel Jackson, Entertainment Weekly noticed that they were none other than a blatant homage to the Black Panthers.
The accompanying music video for the song even vilifies American cops by victimizing black youth, then, to top off the spectacle of bad taste, submerges a cop car.
This has got America’s Mayor fuming. To see what Rudi Giuliani had to say about the performance, continue reading on the next page:
Was she not escorted to her ‘performance’ by the police?? SMDH
Fighting racism with racism . lol what a joke
This nappy headed skunk and her puppies, just may need a policeman, some day, I sure hope you guys are really busy, when she calls.
Beyoncé (thunder thighs racist ) hope you don’t need a cop anytime soon
I wonder where she would be if white folks stopped buying her music? POOR??
Know K-N-O-W. Ignorant.. Same deal. You have said enough. I agree we need to end the problems in this world. But not by giving hands all the time. That has got us in this mess. And we should start with not giving to other countries until we take care of all our own first. Right here in the United States. Not including the illegal aliens. They should be returned to their respected home land. And I do read the bible.
can you imagine if the band came out wearing white robes and hoods covering their faces? This is JUST as racist as they claim the KKK to be! Beyonce is nothing more than an ugly, racist, no-talent, chubby teletubby piece of c**p!
sickening
You call people dancing monkeys and still complain about Beyonce wow!
Way to make my comment about racism…pretty sure my comment is directed at ALL celebs trying to use their misguided and unrealistic clout and making any situation about politics instead of entertainment.
