It seems like the general consensus is that Lady Gaga killed it in her halftime performance. And I concur. But there also seems to be a consensus that the performance was apolitical (which would make it the last apolitical thing left in America). I don’t concur with that. She recited the pledge, she covered Woody Guthrie, she hugged a brown person while singing, “Why don’t you stay? Stay, Stay,” and she’s Lady Gaga. The whole performance was political.

+ And the ads were pretty political too.
