    If that finger was part of the routine than it was appropriate in my eyes. M.I.A. also does it in the video and totally fits the part. They did say Madonna wasnt able to do anything Inapropriate not M.I.A. There’s also got to be some kind of controversy when it has to do with out girl Madge! Kudos to you again Madonna for an exciting performance.

    Other than that, the show was really good

  3. A Super Bowl blogger from the sports news website Bleacher Report is reporting that MIA was on a US Homeland Security Risk List back in 2006. MIA needs to apologize as well and she should have to pay any fines issued by the FCC. MIA is a classic celebrity nut.
