M.I.A. – your middle finger needed to be MIA during the Super Bowl halftime show!
Just who do you think you are MIA? And why did you think it was cool to give the finger to Americans watching the Super Bowl halftime show?
It’s not cool — it’s rude. And in the context of where you were and what you were doing — in front of 111.3 million people — it was just plain disrespectful.
Disrespectful to the audience watching the show — including many children — and disrespectful to Madonna, 53, whose thunder it appeared you were trying to steal!
You were so fortunate to have been asked by Madonna to be featured in her new hit single, “Give Me All Your Luvin,” and then to appear in her Super Bowl performance.
Now, I know that you gave the finger in the official video for the song with Madonna, and I guess she was cool with that. But that was one finger that should have been omitted from the live Super Bowl appearance.
You may be a star on the rise, but this finger episode just makes you look like an attention-hog, not a hot talent!

It’s over the top reactions like this, which are probably the reason she put her middle finger up at all you Americans. If you see this a ‘shocking’, you really need to get out more.
The super bowl itself is just disgusting, especially having ‘world peace’ at the end of madonna’s performance, in AMERICA. (Your war in the middle east is doing a good job of that).
I would be suprised if she only put her finger up, as she knows you’re all ridiculous. I don’t want to offend you, but really, grow up. Who cares?

Seriously? MIA flipping the finger disrespectful and the worst thing viewers have ever seen?! Child Abuse is almost epidemic in America, almost 90% of porn is created in the USA and murder is so common that nobody bats an eyelid anymore – get over yourselves and start commenting about real issues which affect real people fs.

More outrage for the sake of outrage. She’s just flipping off the squares. If you take offense, you’re a square. Shut up.

I think that the American people need to tell this bimbo to grow up! She basically flipped all of us off and although she probable did it as a publicity stunt like that moron Kanye West did when he upstaged poor Taylor Swift at the MTV Video Music Awards. THAT Idiot was OSTRACIZED and I think this idiot should be as well!!We are HER public, her FANS and she owes ALL of us nothing less than her complete RESPECT!!!! These stars need to learn that WE MAKE THEM AND WE CAN DESTROY THEM JUST AS WELL!!

No, you cannot destroy MIA. It is not within your puny pathetic powerless existance. Despite your bleeting, the only thing that can destroy MIA is….MIA!

The funny thing is Madonna has teamed up with MIA to give herself some relevance. Who cares? Really? And who would be aware of it if it weren’t for all this conservative frothing about it?
