M.I.A.'s Middle Finger at Super Bowl halftime show uncensored

M.I.A. was one of Madonna's surprise guests during the Queen of Pop's Super Bowl halftime performance. Together with Nicki Minaj, the three sang and danced to the tune of Madonna's latest single Give Me All You Luvin'.

At the end of a rap part and while the camera was still on her, M.I.A.'s middle finger suddenly flexed in a dirty finger fashion together with the word "shit" that was actually part of the song's lyrics.

Perhaps not wanting a reaction similar to what they got when Janet Jackson had a wardrobe malfunction years ago, the National Football League (NFL) and NBC released apologies in behalf of M.I.A. Both parties also said that there was failure in the television network's delay system the reason why the inappropriate gesture was not obscured in time.

Watch the controversial part of the performance after the jump.
