Viewers are angry at Beyoncé and Coldplay for ‘promoting homosexuality’ at the Super Bowl

Antigay viewers were quick to take to social media last night to decry Sunday’s Super Bowl 50 Halftime show, which wrapped up with gutsy performances by Beyoncé, Bruno Mars, and Coldplay singing “Believe in Love.”

Friendly Atheist’s Hemant Mehta noted that the anti-gay “complaints come from the same people who are watching a game in which dozens of men jump on top of each other for hours before dancing and patting each other on the butt.”
