Super Bowl LI featured a super-close game between the New England Patriots and the Atlanta Falcons, a number of funny and heartwarming commercials, and a stellar half-time performance by the incomparable Lady Gaga.
But for whatever reason, the only thing that some people could focus on was Gaga's ~super offensive~ "belly roll."
Apparently, yes.
Trolls attacked the singer while performing in a pair of sequined bottoms and a glamorous, midriff-revealing, football-style top. Never mind her flawless pipes or killer dance moves — this was the thing they honed in on.
Fortunately, her fans immediately struck back, and struck back HARD, praising her body as a wonderful and realistic example of someone who's in shape without being "perfect."
@ChonceDeLeon wow, dude. How about you get up there and dance like she did AND sing in front of millions? Once you do that, you can troll.

I really appreciate that Lady Gaga has a little flab on her belly. Thank you for being realistic in a world full of barbie dolls.

Lady Gaga has a history with eating disorders and sexual assault, and people think it's OK to dissect her body. Um... am I missing something here?
Gaga has not addressed the trolls at all — rather she went straight to thanking her little monsters for watching her kickass half-time show.
"So!!!!!??? What did you guys think of the #PepsiHalftime show? I love performing for you," she later tweeted.
You killed it, Gaga — that's what we think. Never change.
