After Beyonce stole the entire Super Bowl show with her electrifying (for real) performance last night, the backlash couldn't be far off. Unsurprisingly, tongues are now clucking about how Bey's S&M-y leather and lace bodysuit -- designed by Rubin Singer and meant to evoke warrior women -- was "inappropriate" for family viewing. What's more, others are carrying on with some ridiculous stretch of a story about a nip slip. Ugh. People. Give me a break! Maybe it was inevitable. Maybe anything remotely sexual or especially illustrative of confident female sexuality -- at the Super Bowl of all places! -- was bound to get bashed. Because I'm just not seeing how the diva's costume was in any way questionable. And the claim that she suffered a true wardrobe malfunction is completely ludicrous.![]()
