Megyn Kelly’s Reaction To “The Black National Anthem” Leaves Viewers Stunned

Former Fox News media mistress, Megyn Kelly, has sparked controversy after she complained about how the Super Bowl featured the Black national anthem performance ahead of the big game. While the Super Bowl still includes a traditional rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner performed by country-blues musician Chris Stapleton, Kelly was furious that the Black national anthem, Lift Every Voice and Sing, was presented as well on Sunday night’s game.

One fan turned to Twitter to write, “Sheryl Lee Ralph looked and sounded amazing, singing ‘The Black National Anthem’ ‘Lift Every Voice and Sing’ during the Superbowl pregame show, which happens to also be 123 years to the date, when the hymn was first publicly sung!”

While millions of Americans found it patriotic of the Super Bowl to include the Black national anthem ahead of the game, Megyn Kelly found it offensive and derogatory.

“Can I tell you, like, it wasn’t as bad as it’s been in years past, but it was a woke Super Bowl, and it was annoying,” Kelly said on her podcast. “Why did we need the all-female flyover, which they — Fox, I mean, even on Fox, they were showing highlights. ‘It’s an all-female flyover.’ Oh, okay. All right. Thank you for reminding me that women can be pilots. I didn’t know that.”

Kelly was not impressed with the Super Bowl pregame show. She was particularly bothered by the amazing performance by actor Sheryl Lee Ralph who bravely sang Lift Every Voice in Sing, which is popularly known as the Black national anthem.

“And then, of course, we had to have the Black National Anthem in addition to the regular national anthem, which is totally divisive. There is no reason to have a Black National Anthem sung before the Super Bowl,” Kelly said. “But there’s one national anthem. It unites us all. It’s about the love of the country. There’s no point in dividing us by race, going into something that is already unifying as a country.”

Megyn Kelly, who has taken a dark turn toward conservativism since she was booted from Fox News, complained that many Super Bowl commercials featured “woke, “left-wing” celebrities and not enough Republicans.

And then we had a parade of left-wing celebrities all over the ads, from Amy Schumer to Ben Affleck, who won’t even act with a Republican. He refuses to act across anybody who’s openly Republican,” Kelly said.

Kelly’s statement was in reference to a Ben Affleck interview in which the actor said he would not want to work with a Republican if he can help it.

“People now know me as a Democrat, and that will always be the case to some extent,” Affleck told Playboy Magazine in 2014. “It does [polarize viewers], and you can bifurcate your audience. When I watch a guy I know is a big Republican, part of me thinks, I probably wouldn’t like this person if I met him, or we would have different opinions. That s–t fogs the mind when you should be paying attention and be swept into the illusion.”

Kelly was disappointed with the Super Bowl.

“All I could think was like, they don’t get it right,” Kelly said. “Like the people who put together the entertainment, who put together the ads, they’re not even trying to think about the other half of the country. They’re just pandering. They just wanna pander, pander, pander. And it’s fine. The game was great, but it is a slight irritant as you’re watching the game.”
