Lady Gaga goes wild at the 2017 Superbowl Halftime Show

Lady Gaga mesmerized the crowd with her jaw-dropping performance at the 2017 Superbowl halftime show.

She did blow off of the roof as expected, and we can’t pretend like it was nothing.

Music speaks for itself: Her hit "Born This Way" became a gay rights anthem but in the context of Sunday's show fit into the idea of accepting differences, a thread through much of the game's commercial messaging

The British singer presented an unprecedented art throughout her memorable time at the NRG Stadium in Houston on Sunday.

Although superstars like Beyonce, Katy Perry and others have wowed the crowd during such Superbowl events, everyone knew Gaga would bring something energetic and memorable.

She’s that kind of star who likes to do the unimaginable.

Yes, she did pass a subtle appeal to Donald Trump, but that wasn’t a surprise. Everyone is talking about the controversial president who doesn’t really care about what haters think.

Remarkably, Gaga hasn’t been political with her music – a probable reason why she landed the mega deal. But she did something diplomatic in the most respectable manner.

Fierce: Lady Gaga's Super Bowl half time show began with a rendition of This is Your Land and transformed into a barnstorming rendition of her greatest hits 

She started her 12-minute set with “God Bless America” and performed “This Land is Your Land (from Woodie Guthrie).”

Although rumors have it that the NFL organizers warned our beloved 30-year-old star not to make any political statements that could destroy the objectives of this year’s biggest sport event, she used a line in her lyrics which said: “There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me.”

Nobody builds high walls like the US President for sure. Luckily for the famous star, his Mexican-styled walls couldn’t stop her shine.

Gaga blew our minds when she literally landed from mid-air onto the stage just before her performance, with some wires attached, of course.

That amazing display sparked wild reaction from onlookers who let themselves loose as she treated everyone to non-stop music.

Her knee high boots and shiny silver bodysuit looked gorgeous, too.

Hell of a halftime show! Lady Gaga sang America The Beautiful from atop the stadium in Houston at the star of her Super Bowl 51 performance

The “Poker Face” singer diverted from a question while discussing with reporters at a press conference last week. She knows the Superbowl creates a sensitive and polarizing atmosphere where politics, sports and personal interests pitch people against themselves.

“The only statements that I’ll be making during the halftime show are the ones that I’ve been consistently making throughout my career,” she told the press.

“I believe in a passion for inclusion. I believe in the spirit of equality and the spirit of this country as one of love, and compassion, and kindness.

“My performance will uphold those philosophies,” she continued, “I don’t know if it will succeed in unifying America. You’ll have to ask America when it’s over.”

You did nail it, Gaga! And all of us, including NFL Organizers, are saying the same.

Here are more pictures from the show:

Podium: She was backed up by an upbeat, ethnically diverse cast of dancers, who at one point joined in a group hug

True: The show was keeping with her recent theme of family connection but still had her trademark theatricality 

Inferno: With just 13 minutes at her disposal, Gaga could not pull off many changes of costume and utilized pyrotechnics throughout her performance 

Pure pop: After she landed Lady Gaga launched into a medley of her greatest hits with inch perfect choreography throughout 

Here us now: Once onstage, she commanded a large troupe of dancers and musicians, props that breathed fire and audience members swinging lights in synchronization

Dressed in a silver, sequined bodysuit and matching heeled boots, Gaga sang her dance hits "Poker Face" and "Born This Way"

Big deal: The Super Bowl half time show is so important that Las Vegas even set odds on what color Gaga's hair would be 

Acrobatic: Lady Gaga is helped by one of her backup dancers during her energetic half time show at the Super Bowl on Sunday 

A million reasons: Gaga shouted out to her parents as she sang her recent ballad 'Million Reasons' and played the piano

All as one: The 72,000 crowd at the NRG Stadium in Houston all sway together as Lady Gaga sings her ballad a Million Reasons

The Super Bowl halftime show, with an audience usually topping 100 million, is easily the biggest show of an artist's career

Super Bowl performances are rarely directly provocative, although last year Beyonce startled many by playing her single "Formation." Its video had a message against police brutality
