Singer Ellie Goulding is threatening to back out of a performance at the Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving game halftime show over fan complaints about the Salvation Army. The Grammy-nominated artist was set to perform at the game between the Cowboys and the Buffalo Bills during the halftime show, which will kick off the organizations annual Red Kettle Campaign.
The backlash came after Goulding took to Instagram on Tuesday to share an image of herself helping out at a Salvation Army location in New York City, which prompted some followers to criticize her for backing an organization they believe is not supportive of the LGBTQ community.

This puke can go pound sand. Pick a proud AMERICAN Cowboys and NFL.
More than almost all other charities.
If they donate to them, I stop donating to the SA. My money isnt going to that **** when I can help it.
Shut up and sing...whoever you are.
I hope Jerry, the Cowboys and the SA tells her to not let the door hit her on the way out. This crap has to stop. It’s like the Borg you will be assimilated. First it was tolerance, then acceptance and now participation. How soon before everyone will have to prove they’ve had at least one homosexual encounter in order to get a job or go to college.
Maybe they better take another look at the Salvation Army Website. I been a donor for decades . . .but not this year. The organization has lost its way. https://www.salvationarmyusa.org/usn/the-lgbtq-community-and-the-salvation-army/
Bwahahahahahahahaha! Yeah, right.
Entertainers are a dime a dozen. Find another one who is not an extortionist last well.
She’s on the side of the Salvation Army.
Gays assume anything with a hint of religion (i.e. "salvation") must be discriminating against them. They don't need facts and logic, they have feelings. That's all a leftist brown shirt needs.
Ellie please don’t sing, I’ve a couple of your songs, stinkeroo.
Do America a favor and stay home.
I got to the point after hearing about all the abuses from some (many) of these “Charities” I give ONLY to Safetgiver and his family members.
Go get George Straight to sing it, that would be so appropriate in so many ways.
so she’s against inmate rehab then?
Besides the toy drives and such, the SA “..has more no-fee rehabilitation facilities than any other program in America. For over 100 years, The Salvation Army’s Adult Rehabilitation Centers and Harbor Light Programs have offered spiritual, emotional, and social assistance to those who have lost the ability to cope with their problems and provide for themselves.”

82 cents of every dollar donated to The Salvation Army goes toward program services. ... The Salvation Army serves in nearly every ZIP code in the U.S., according to the organization. Money raised in each community, in red kettles and throughout the year, stays within those areas to help local people in need. (Dec 24, 2015)
IOW, support the Salvation Army and (egad!) the Dallas Cowboys. Cowboys owner and wife are big supporters of the SA, btw.

That’s it, camel the game.
Oh, don’t feel too bad. I’m the same way. I’m just waiting for my kids to put me in a home after my next big goof.
All due respect, dp0622, and I do respect your opinion....
....this is when men and women with integrity SHOULD speak out
However, I dont expect this little bully to do the honorable thing.
There has to be tons of talented people who can take her place!!,
