Gladys Knight To Sing Super Bowl National Anthem, And She Just Blasted Colin Kaepernick
January 21, 2019 Martin
 

Soul singer Gladys Knight has agreed to sing the national anthem at this year’s Super Bowl in Atlanta, and she just blasted Colin Kaepernick.

In a statement to Variety, Knight said she is aware of why Kaepernick claims he is protesting the national anthem, but made it clear she wants the song to have its “purpose” again.

“I understand that Mr. Kaepernick is protesting two things, and they are police violence and injustice,” Knight wrote to Variety. “It is unfortunate that our national anthem has been dragged into this debate when the distinctive senses of the national anthem and fighting for justice should each stand alone.”
