Lamar filled the stage with performers, but none of them seemed to be white. While most may not even have noticed, some particularly upset users took to X to express their frustration.

“There’s no diversity in the half time show. DEI only goes one direction and this horrible halftime show perfectly represents why DEI needs to die,” a user wrote.

    I can’t fathom the logic but maybe that’s because I’m not racist. The best thing here would be if people would just enjoy shit and shut the fuck up. I will straight up admit I didn’t understand a fuckin word Lamar said on stage, but I also understand that my taste in music doesn’t include whatever type of rap it is that he performs. But I cannot fathom sitting there watching that and the only thought on my mind is ‘holy SHIT there’s not a single white person on the stage !!!’ Just…wat.

      Closed Captions are your friend. KL writes excellent lyrics that are relevant to who he is and where he comes from.
