THE FIRST LADY loved Beyonce's Superbowl show.
Watching the #SuperBowl with family & friends. @Beyonce was phenomenal! I am so proud of her!"
Nothing else needs to be said.
Is Michelle Obama wrong?
I didn't think so.
- She's NEVER WRONG!!!! EVER!!!!
- OP, this thread is like crack for our racist eldergays. Beyonce and Michelle in the same thread!
- The racists on DL are mostly freeper trolls trying to impersonate (and infuriate) us.
You know, asswipes.
- Michelle Obama is too clean cut and butter wouldn't melt to not be biased. She wants to mould Beyonce as some kind of pristine role model. How can anybody who calls themselves an artist DARE cultivate an illusory image of perfection. If you are a true performer, you will showcase the light and the dark which is why Beyonce had to invent an alter ego so should could blame her less than pure instincts on somebody else. The reason Madonna is better than all of these however technically more proficient singers is that Madonna OWNED both her perversity and her tastefulness. Michelle Obama will never present more than 1 face to the world - the face of somebody who would censor the truth of what we are, that which only artists and certainly not politicians can tell us. Michelle Obama therefore is not to be trusted when judging matters of performance, not that Beyonce is expressing anything particularly subversive anyway. But do you think Michelle Obama would tweet that message had it been Madonna or Britney, the more provocative entertainers of our time? Hell no.
- And I thought she had better taste than that.
- [quote] the face of somebody who would censor the truth of what we are
And then you namecheck Madonna and Britney??!! Oh yes, they are unflinching in their pursuit of truth and their desire to explore what "we" are.
For MARY-ing out loud!
They%20REALLY%20care.
- Just curious--did she send out a similar tweet last year that commented on Madonna's SB performance?
didn't think so
- r6 - sometimes you don't have to be conscious of something to express the truth. Britney 2001 VMA - Eve in the garden with the snake. 2 days later 9/11 happened - paradise lost, the fall of man -- catch my drift? During the height of the war and the terrible Bush years, Britney shaved her head as if to purge us of our fallen state. I hope you are beginning to understand. Michelle Obama is not to be trusted. Those who don't seem to be wholly articulate or trustworthy - like Britney and Madonna - are the ones we should trust, for they tell us who we are.
- Who gives a rat's ass what Michelle Obama thinks about anything
- r8, I think you need some sleep.
