What has her fight got to do with singing at the NFL...? It's no game changer, she is not the first. It's all about the big pay day. One she has not had for a long time.

Gladys, maybe your agents didn’t tell you, THE FIGHT, NEVER ENDED! We’re in a WAR fighting systematic terrorism of White Supremacy & our weapon is our VOICE to speak up & expose it, & also be silent when it calls on Black People to Entertain them. You broke the code!

So protesters against racial injustice want to stop a black woman from singing at the Super Bowl. Wow... You can't make this stuff up.

Funny how those who hate the US so much have no problem living there

You will sing it right. You deserve to sing the anthem.

What on Earth is wrong with Gladys Knight singing the National Anthem? And as many people as want to kneeling as she does so in protest at racist police brutality - which I'm pretty sure she'd be down with?

Such a beautiful voice ❤️

She is an icon, she should NEVER have to defend any decision she makes and for people to make her do so, says way more about them. Smdh

Love this lady and with a voice that is truly a gift that needs to be shared. The Empress of soul, yes indeed.

This special lady has a voice that speaks to hearts, minds and souls of America. GladysKnight soulsinger

Amen

Crazy

And yet?

Respectfully: No.

The Kaepernick protests were not about the anthem. They were about taking a stance on police brutality and oppression. The Kaepernick protests were not about the anthem. The Kaepernick protests were not about the anthem. The Kaepernick protests were not about the anthem.
