I'm just surprised that you find this scary. Its quite commonplace. Bigots, sexists and racists are simply swine.

Those are the same racist idiots that can be found in any online forum like CNN, YouTube or even IMDb sadly. Keep in mind that they are a small yet vocal minority.

Though this whole thing was rather silly. And if she wanted to break a Western audience, the UK probably would have been a better choice. I don't think America is ready for a South Asian 'pop icon,' let alone at an NFL game. They need to figure out that they're not Middle Eastern, among other things, first.She was actually recruited for this project by a British Indian woman named Anjula Acharia-Bath, the CEO of Desi Hits. She said she wanted to launch a global South Asian celebrity and I think it's more of her dream since she's been asking Priyanka since 2009.

And I honestly thought the same thing, but if Anjula thought she could launch Priyanka in the UK, I'm sure she would have tried. Unfortunately the fact that South Asians are the biggest minority group in the UK, but not very visible in British media, says a lot. Jay Sean was barely successful in his country and never had major mainstream hit until signing with an American label.

Wait. These are FOOTBALL fans? Please do not benchmark America by them. In international terms, the citizens of the USA are quite ignorant. Most couldn't find anything important on a map. Jay Leno proved it repeatedly. A few years ago, the statistic was that 75 percent of the population hadn't been outside the national BORDERS. This makes them easy pickings for politicians who want to stampede them into a war. As for Priyanka's "color", she is far closer to a Latina than a "sista". You know the FUNNIEST thing? (to me). She actually RESIDED in the Middle West for a part of her life. Iowa, if I remember right. And her English diction is better than about 99 percent of Indians.
