Beyonce’s Super Bowl 50 halftime performance of her new single “Formation” is causing a lot of polarizing conversation, including commentary from former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani. He refers to the singer’s performance as an attack on police officers during an appearance on Fox & Friends.
The Houston songstress sang the song during Super Bowl’s halftime as a salute to the Black Panthers and the Black Lives Matter movement. She was backed by dancers dressed in Black Panther-esque berets and black leather garb. During the performance they spelled out the letter “X,” likely a reference to Malcolm X.
In a photograph captured backstage, the dancers held up a handwritten sign that said, “Justice 4 Mario Woods.” Woods was shot and killed by police in December in the Super Bowl‘s host city, San Francisco.
“I thought it was really outrageous that she used it as a platform to attack police officers,” Giuliani says, “who are the people who protect her and protect us to keep us alive. What she should be doing in the African-American community and in all communities is build up respect for police officers and focus on the fact that when something goes wrong then, okay, we’ll work on that. The vast majority of police officers risk their lives to keep us safe.”
The one-time mayor says that the entertainment approved by the NFL should’ve been wholesome and geared towards Middle America, not used as a political platform.
Beyonce recently shared the message behind her politically-charged performance. “It makes me proud,” she says. “It’s what I wanted. I wanted people to feel proud, have love for themselves.”
Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s interview on Fox & Friends, where he slams Beyonce’s Super Bowl 50 halftime performance of her “Formation” single, is as follows:
FUCK GIULIANI
Fuck you and the black ass holes you represent.

Beyonce is paler than most Asian chicks, why is she trying to be all soul sista #1 now And are people REALLY fooled by any of this shallow shit? Black Panther imagery is really basic, it’s like military imagery in metal.
This website is pretty bad. It used to be dope. This is what happens when you mix entertainment with politics and/or religion.
The first shall be last and the last shall be first. Particularly for those on earth who through socialization have come to think they are God when really every great civilization over the course of mankind has ended. This includes America and white people in addition to other ingenious peoples. Behind the hatred for blacks is fear of being taken over by all melainated non-recessive gene humans. The real fear comes in when the guilt of having committed some of the most heinous crimes to humanity over hundreds of years may just come back to haunt ten fold. Some say, “well… that was my great great grandfather.” Ok then hand over all the monies and tangible resources created by said grandfather and the sin will be removed. Bottom line… you cannot avoid God and/or Nature’s wrath by telling the poor, downtrodding people to “Get Over It!” You’d better be telling karma to get over it.
This is the dumbest thing I have heard. Shut the fuck up
Blacks can complain all they want, at the end of the day they’re still the dominant race in the ghetto and prisons. Every nationality starts at the bottom and eventually climbs their way up the socioeconomic ladder, not the blacks. Even with a black president and powerful black entertainers and athletes, they’re still killing one another in the ghetto.
LOL Beyonce doesnt give a flying F about Black People. Her new song is trash, I Dont know how black girls see that song as EMPOWERING BLACK WOMEN. singing about nego noses when she got a NOse Surgery to make her nose look more European. Whatever, ya’ll in this shit blacks is not my race but the world is laughing at you fools.
You are foolish! You have no idea what you are speaking of. She never had a nose job, done. It’s simple, it’s powerful, it’s your history, let it be known, you are BLACK. But we are POWERFUL! Learn your history, it will repeat itself.
Horrible halftime show. And she should work more on her looking like a cheap skank all the time. She is a complete disgrace for the lil kids who look up to her. Grow up. You pushing 40 years old already Beyonce.
Black folks make me ashamed to even be black. So sick of all the crybaby ass shit. Quit whining and acting like pussys.
its basically reverse racism…she and jay z know controversy sells
Is Giuliani on crack? How the fuck is she attacking police officers? When will whites just admit, they hate black people?
Crackar, eat a dig.
Folks, you pay too much attention to celebs… give it a rest. Get your own life going. Fuck all these celebs.
Haha, Giuliani is a clown. Go cry in the bathroom Rudy!
