A dancer who participated in Kendrick Lamar's halftime performance at the Super Bowl has been banned from all NFL stadiums and events for life after displaying a flag with the words 'Gaza' and 'Sudan'. The incident occurred during Lamar's performance of 'Not Like Us', where the individual, part of the 400-member field cast, unveiled the flag, sparking controversy. The NFL confirmed the lifetime ban, stating that the individual had hidden the flag and unveiled it late in the show, adding that no one involved with the production was aware of their intent. Roc Nation, who organized the Super Bowl halftime show, also released a statement, clarifying that the act was neither planned nor part of the production and was never rehearsed. Meanwhile, the New Orleans Police Department confirmed the ejection from security but stated that the individual will face no further charges.
