IN a great interview on CNN, soul music icon Gladys Knight wipes the stupid smirk off of Don Lemon’s face by describing how great a country we live in, and how she’s honored to sing the national anthem for it!!!
It’s amazing.
"People are going to have their opinions about whatever, and all I can deal with right now is what my heart says." - Gladys Knight defends decision to perform the National Anthem at the Super Bowl. "I just want them to know that we have a country that's worth standing up for." pic.twitter.com/GMpgQZh8xL

“I mean if we start denying the anthem – there’s so many people that have died for the country,” she says, and you can tell Lemon DOES NOT LIKE IT. She even talks about how she participated in the civil rights struggle, and she does NOT see why she needs to be against the national anthem!! I love it. And Don Lemon hated it. Which made me love it even more.
Makes me enjoy her wonderful music even more:
UPDATE: I forgot to add another thought I had – the fact that CNN didn’t publish this interview on their YouTube channel, and instead just dropped it into Twitter shows they likely didn’t appreciate what she said…
