It made as much sense as going to Japan and singing their national anthem in English or some other foreign language and speaking to them in a foreign language. WTH? She's always been an ethnocentric Latina with a tribal mentality. Our national anthem was written in English and should be sung in English and she was speaking to an audience who were mostly English speakers. She disgusts me!
The irony of you whining about someone exhibiting a tribal mentality.

Her parents are from Puerto Rico and Puerto Rico is a)part of the US and b)has Spanish as an official language. And she didn't sing the national anthem. This entire post is ridiculous.

So what! Here on the mainland our national de facto language is English not Spanish. I'd be wiling to bet that most at the inaugural didn't even understand Spanish. How fair was that to them? JLo has always exploited her Latinoness. Just like she did at the Super Bowl half time show insinuating that we have no right to fend off illegal aliens who just happen to share her ethnicity. She puts her ethnicity above her Americaness and I have no use for people like that. Just what was her point anyway? I think I know and it disgusts me!
whole bunch of bigots in here getting offended when anyone dares to be bilingual. Oh noes!
OP is a pro-white who only wants you to speak murican good
the type of Karen who yells at people at the supermarket for speaking another language
Nothing wrong with being bi-lingual but there's a time and place for everything. Speaking Spanish at a presidential inauguration was not the place when our national de facto language is English and I'm pretty sure that most in attendance didn't understand Spanish. Citizens have to know English to vote so who the hell was she trying to reach?
WTH is murican? I never heard of that language. What does ones race have to do with anything? Do you think most blacks understand Spanish? No, they are native English speakers.
Why would she pandering in Spanish when you have to know English to become a U.S. citizen and only citizens can vote? Even Hispanics born here know English!
Lady Gaga performed an emotional and uplifting national anthem today at the inauguration. She has a damned good voice.
What a heartfelt display of patriotism, it was nice to see. But it seemed like the past four years Democrats hated this country -- the early Americans killed Indians and owned slaves.
So I guess now they're in power they can love America again.
