J-Lo's 'political statement on immigration': Twitter goes wild for Super Bowl half-time show with 'Latino children in cages singing Born in the USA'
UK Daily Mail ^ | February 3, 2020 | Sophie Tanno, Chris Pleasance, and Sameer Suri

.Lo got political during her Super Bowl half time show which featured Latino children in cages who then broke into a rendition of 'Born in the USA' in what appeared to be a swipe at Donald Trump's immigration policies. Both Shakira and J.Lo put their Latina heritage front and center of the show, with the former - who was born in Colombia - taking to the stage shouting 'hola Miami!' before bringing out rapper Bad Bunny who sung in Spanish. But it was J.Lo who made the bigger statement during the latter part of her performance, when the lights rose on children including her own 11-year-old daughter Emme sat in cages - which appeared to reference Trump's hardline immigration policy that has seen children detained after attempting to cross the southern border illegally. Emme began by singing part of her song Let's Get Loud before J.Lo appeared in a giant American flag coat, which had the Puerto Rican flag on the other side.

After a great opening, the NFL blew it by having a couple of Tramps do a slut routine.

Just another pole dancer.

Well, they did tell us that this game would feature two all-pro tight ends.

I have never been able to figure out what was/is so great about Shakira, J-Lo and many others who perform and sing just like them. Slutty dance moves and music that sucks.

I stopped watching the Halftime Slut Show a long time ago, a great time to go for a neighborhood walk.

It would have been nice if she did the number from West Side Story, OK by me in America! Seems to me she was doing Bernado’s line, As for me I go back to San Juan.

Haven’t seen a NFL game in years. I can walk down town and see all the moronic thugs I want.

Oh, J Lo and Shakira can go and F themselves. If they like Columbia and Puerto Rico so much, go the hell back home!

You don’t watch the SuperBowl because of the halftime show?

Thats kind of funny, I was able to take a little walk for 20 minutes to let the nachos and beer settle a bit.

I’m no prude, but I was embarrassed during the entire show sitting among families and friends. The twitter universe was alive at how great this halftime show was...what am I missing.

"They showed photos of her from her youth. She was a tanned skinned brunette. It is 100% obvious Shakira has gone through multiple rounds of bleaching her skin."

True that.

I was a proud Packer Backer, starting in the 50s. Kaepernack and the rest of the kneelers, along with the depraved half-time shows killed it for me.

The National Felons’ League is dead to me.

What, bending over to show you her a*s was not proper decorum? And they complain Trump isn't Presidential while they take the country down the toilet? Lefties = Hypocrisy

The message I got, loud and clear, was “it’s our country now”.

My message back to them is try to keep it without us.

I’m 73. I don’t mind seeing scantily clad women gyrate their hips. If my granddaughter was here she wouldn’t watch the show for sure. Many go for food or walk. When they announce the show you can figure out what it will be. Over time things are more explicit and sexual. J lo is holding on to her body at 50. I’m riding into the sunset wondering what the world will be like in20 years. Hopefully more conservative

Well Shakira is of Lebanese descent, and you don’t find too many blondes over there.

Open Borders Latino Power combined with movements more fit for a South Beach strip club not wonder Jeb Bush called it the greatest halftime show ever. I did not watch.

By contrast, the halftime show at Super Bowl I featured the Grambling College (now Grambling State University) marching band, known for their flashy uniforms and jazzy repertoire. Among their formations on the field was a map of the United States. In 2020, this sounds like something from another galaxy.

F J LO.

That conservatives precipitate in this fiasco is disheartening.
