NFL and NBC Sports have apologized for M.I.A. showing her middle finger on national TV during Madonna's Super Bowl halftime performance.
NBC Sports said in a statement:
“We apologize for the inappropriate gesture that aired during halftime. It was a spontaneous gesture that our delay system caught late.”
The NFL apologized too, but placed the blame on NBC:
“There was a failure in NBC’s delay system. The obscene gesture in the performance was completely inappropriate, very disappointing, and we apologize to our fans.”Our thoughts: First of all, it was inappropiate of M.I.A. and we shouldn't be blaming NFL or NBC Sports for it. M.I.A. was the one that knew what she was doing and just wanted some attention. Yeah, NBC failed at blurring the moment, but it wouldn't have happened if M.I.A. flipped her middle finger during the performance. It made no sense.
For the people that haven't seen the moment we're talking about... check it below.
She was just trying to out do Nicki Minaj. and had to find a way to someone how, since she isn't on that level yet.
ReplyDeleteSo apparently THIS was the ONLY shocking thing on Madonnas performance. Seriously calm down.
