“The Daily Show” correspondent Jessica Williams has responded to Fox News’ criticism of Beyonce’s Super Bowl half time show, during whichย Rudy Giuliani and Stuart Varney blasted the singer for including a tribute to the Black Panthers and the Black Lives Matter movement.
“Race was brought in because Beyoncรฉ was brought in,” said Williams on Monday night’s show. “And brace yourself, because you might want to sit down for this, but Beyoncรฉ is black.”
On Monday, Varney asked, “Is there anything in America that can exclude race? Why is race brought in at the halftime show of the Super Bowl?”
Forย Beyonce’s performance, her dancers dressed in all black, including berets similar to those worn byย members of the Black Panther party in the 1960s.
