‘SNL’ reminds us of their love for all things Beyonce (who could forget the epic ‘Beygency’ skit) with their hilarious take on the ongoing backlash the ‘Drunk In Love’ diva is facing following her ‘Super Bowl 50’ performance.
With boycotts, protests, and accusations of rendering a racially charged/divisive performance, the singer has been the source of many-a-hot topic this week as her name rides headline after headline. And, while that particular subject shows no signs of cooling, leave it to ‘SNL’ to capitalize on the controversy by stirring the pot with some seriously funny satire.
See it below:
?????????????????????????????
WHITE PEOPLE LOSING THERE NEUROLOGICAL MINDS LOL
Lol…100% sure dat’s how white people reacted to the SB50 performance.
LMAO this was cute. ?
I’m screammingg!!!!!
LOL And the hater’s claim that she didn’t steal the show *sips tea*
Formation has been the topic of discussion for how long???
7 days….
*claps hands*
LMAO! Leave it to SNL to find a way to make this situation funny. It has to register to these racist how stupid they look by getting upset about a song/video and performance.
*ON A SERIOUS NOTE*
If you ignore the issues plaguing black ppl you’re an Uncle Tom, a SELLOUT. If you speak up you run the risk of alienating some of your audience. Beyoncé could have continued to dominate the music industry and never said a word she would go down in the history books as one of the greatest performers ever. I respect her for risking it all to stand up for black lives. Katrina happened and there are still people who are displaced, the 9th ward has not been recovered. Too many unarmed people being murdered. Now all I need is for the Knowles-Carte
* Now all I need is for the Knowles-Carters to start college funds and use their influence to help the people in Flint and Chicago. Great video, great message.
JayZ does have a college fund program the Sean carter foundation
The Myths of Black Lives Matter
To judge from Black Lives Matter protesters and their media and political allies, you would think that killer cops pose the biggest threat to young black men today. But this perception, like almost everything else that many people think they know about fatal police shootings, is wrong.
The Washington Post has been gathering data on fatal police shootings over the past year and a half to correct acknowledged deficiencies in federal tallies. The emerging data should open many eyes.
For starters, fatal police shootings make up a much larger proportion of white and Hispanic homicide deaths than black homicide deaths. According to the Post database, in 2015 officers killed 662 whites and Hispanics, and 258 blacks. (The overwhelming majority of all those police-shooting victims were attacking the officer, often with a gun.) Using the 2014 homicide numbers as an approximation of 2015’s, those 662 white and Hispanic victims of police shootings would make up 12% of all white and Hispanic homicide deaths. That is three times the proportion of black deaths that result from police shootings.
The lower proportion of black deaths due to police shootings can be attributed to the lamentable black-on-black homicide rate. There were 6,095 black homicide deaths in 2014–the most recent year for which such data are available–compared with 5,397 homicide deaths for whites and Hispanics combined. Almost all of those black homicide victims had black killers.
Police officers–of all races–are also disproportionately endangered by black assailants. Over the past decade, according to FBI data, 40% of cop killers have been black. Officers are killed by blacks at a rate 2.5 times higher than the rate at which blacks are killed by police.
Some may find evidence of police bias in the fact that blacks make up 26% of the police-shooting victims, compared with their 13% representation in the national population. But as residents of poor black neighborhoods know too well, violent crimes are disproportionately committed by blacks. According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, blacks were charged with 62% of all robberies, 57% of murders and 45% of assaults in the 75 largest U.S. counties in 2009, though they made up roughly 15% of the population there.
Such a concentration of criminal violence in minority communities means that officers will be disproportionately confronting armed and often resisting suspects in those communities, raising officers’ own risk of using lethal force.

*Sips tea
Blacks have a history of being racially profiled, oppressed and , neglected by the police force because of their RACE. Whites do not.
You can’t see a statement like #blacklivesmatter and want to change it to something else. That’s like going to a fundraising for breast cancer research (which is actually a scam in itself) and saying, “Everyone stop this. There other diseases out there too.” You can’t downplay the existence of an issue by bringing up other ISSUES.

No, you need to “read again.”
In 2015 the police killed 102 UNARMED black people. That’s more than any other race. 37% of unarmed people killed by police were black! Despite the fact, that we only represent 13% of the population.
Lives are being taken and nothing is happening! The same thing is repeating itself over, over, and over again. There is a plague in the police force that needs to be addressed. Police are committing CRIMINAL ACTS and still not facing CRIMINAL CHARGES. The people sworn to protect us, are not protecting us. We do not feel protected or safe.

Its funny how you’re trying to justify the murders of 102 UNARMED people. If African Americans are such savages then why is it that you havent heard anything on the news about a black mass murderer lately? How come the world’s deadliest criminals aren’t black? If you’re going to call blacks the crime hungry individuals that you make them all out to be, try looking at the faults of your own race first instead of being b*** hurt about something that has absolutely nothing to do with you. Pick up a book a read instead of being on the internet trying to make white people out to be the victims.
1. read again and tell me where in my text did i said im justfying something? facts are facts use them to understand the world!
2. you should start to read more – Boko haram are black, do you know them?
3. i’m not white
4. when was the last time you protest against blacks killing blacks?
5. you are patetic fake b*tch who know nothing but still hashtag BLM (wow what a human rights activist you are HAHA) loser you are populistic with double standards. are you sure you are not racist 2 ? dividing people is s***. grow up f*ck head
King, thank you for showing us that you know how to do research. It’s unfortunate that you lack the analytical skills to understand what it all means. I wish I had the time to help you put it all together but unfortunately you seem to be yet another example of the failing American education system.
MUSICHEAD you should put more info into your head Then maybe you’ll see that the world is not just black and white
And THE WORLD is not just America
And America is not just the USA
Bubble Heads
White PEOPLE have no idea what we go through
Albino Alligators
Oh, and one more thing!
A large issue with Whites is the fact that they feel that because we’re not in chains, we should all be “grateful” (read: quiet) and accept how the system works. They don’t give a flying piece of fudge cake whether we have justice for our dead nor, whether we get heard as long as we don’t mess up the flow of their lives (read: major sporting events broadcast). Beyoncé made them have to stop and think about reality in the middle of their fantasy and that got them upset. Mind you, that was for all of TWO minutes in a 14+ minute halftime show and they couldn’t deal with it. That says a heck of a lot more about THEM than it does about Beyoncé
When was the last time you protest against blacks killing blacks tho?
Thats the problem with people like you
Populistic with double standards
I think its time you people stop worrying about the black community and our problems which were caused by whites in the first place and address white mass murderers, and no excuses of “oh he was highly intelligent” or “he was depressed and suffered from anxiety” just tell the truth, white men are crazy, have entitlement issues, are historically modernly violent animals and need serious evaluation
i get what your saying but I also see the racist connotation behind your statements your just like every other clueless white person trying to erase the history that blacks have when it comes to racism & police. Because to be honest, white people are always killing each other in the genocide type way with people shooting schools movie theaters there parents lmao n***** don’t do that! Yes black on black crime is real but so is white crime Hispanic crime etc now what we all don’t have is injustices to deal with that’s why black lives matters does in fact matter
Beyonce is so fake …her and her jobless delusional fans.
You aren’t allowed to comment until the next World Cup.
^^^^jump in coffin and drop dead OMG Tyler you’re ruthless
Oh Damn! Thats how you shut a clueless hater with class! This is more than Beyonce you idiot,, you stans are way too pathetic sometimes.
World cup is the biggest event in the world waaay bigger than super bowl …one place beyonce the local star will never get to perform .
Tyler, you better PREACH!!
Glad SNL’s poking fun at the ridiculousness of it all!
No fks given by SNL LMAO.
Conclusion is summed up there. They overreacted.
Wonder how STUPID people feel when they call it a “pro black, anti police and anti-white” song but then read the lyrics and only get to find out she slays, likes her babys hair natural at that age and her mans big nose.
Clutching at straws so much they can only pin point she says the word negro & cling to that. ? ? #dumbfks ?
KIIIII too funny
BoyY , People look up to your when you have too much money; you can be an azzhole like trump. I don’t want people to want to hang around me because I have money and use them, like trump. F-them….Carry on with Happy Valentine.
This was hilarious! But they didn’t have to bring my Kerry Washington into this. I’ll fight for her lmaoooo!
Heeeell Naw! Lmao! !! This isn’t at all far from the truth. SNL hit it on the nail. The day after the superbowl I saw it first hand on the a lot of news websites comment section. (Sorry TGJ, but yal be so late) The whites were irritated and racist AF! I couldn’t believe what I was reading smh. But hey, I think kimmel should hop aboard and poke fun too. Can’t see how this era plays out for her. I wouldn’t go as far as to say this is the end for her but she’s definitely in some controversial heat.
You gotta love SNL. I love how it made some whites uncomfartable. Amd its sad to lnow that some whites actually behave like that
Lol hahahaha good show
That formation song is lame as hell beyonce could belch 1000 times and hers fans would be like ooooooo ooooooo she belched liked nobody ever has OMG did you hear that etc etc I mean she is very overrated and if she had been around during the 80s earmy 90s when madonna, prince, MJ, JJ etc were around and social media did not exist she would not be as famous as she is her fans women and mostly every gay person on the planet are her fuel for fire Beyonce is not that star that appeals to every race young and old she just isn’t I do not get the hype over her and never will but to each his own.
