American pop singer Karina Pasian faced backlash after performing the US national anthem before an NFL game in Madrid, Spain, marking the first-ever NFL game to be held there. Critics took issue with her outfit, which consisted of a black mini dress with a deep cowl neckline, paired with thigh-high stockings, garters, and long gloves that reached over her elbows.
Many fans felt that Pasian's attire overshadowed her vocals, leading to sharp criticism on social media. Comments ranged from disapproving remarks about the outfits being too provocative to others expressing appreciation for her powerful voice but disappointment in her choice of clothing.
Despite the controversy surrounding her performance and appearance, many people praised Karina Pasian's vocals, with some calling it a historic moment in bringing US music to Spain. The NFL game itself was marked by an exciting overtime win for the Miami Dolphins over the Washington Commanders, 16-13.
Pasian has had a successful music career since she signed with Def Jam Records at just 13 years old. She has received a Grammy nomination and performed at notable events such as the White House during Black Music Month in 2007.

. I mean, who doesn't love her voice?! 
It's like she's got this raw talent just pouring out of her. And the fact that she performed in Spain and broke a historic record is just amazing 
. The only thing is, fashion is so subjective, you know? What one person thinks is too provocative, another person might just see as style 
. It's all about what makes you feel confident and beautiful, right? 
Karina's gotta keep doing her thang, even if some people don't agree with her choices 
. She's a talented artist and that's what matters 
... she's still got talent for days 
! all this fuss over her clothes is kinda weird, can't we just focus on the music? btw, I'm loving the NFL games in Spain, who knew they'd be so popular? 
. But at the same time, can't we just appreciate the talent and let the person express themselves in their own way? 
! It's not all about the clothes, it's about the voice, you know? And from what I heard, her vocals were on point. The NFL game was pretty cool too, especially with that overtime win 
. I think we can agree to disagree on Karina's style, but at the end of the day, she's still a talented artist who deserves respect 
.
. I mean, while it's great that she's confident and unapologetic about her style, the way it overshadowed her vocals is just not ideal. That being said, her voice is seriously impressive 
. It's amazing to see artists like Karina Pasian bringing US music to new audiences in Spain 
. The NFL game itself was a thrilling event, and I'm glad the Miami Dolphins came out on top 
i mean, the girl can SING, and that's what matters most. it's not like anyone else even noticed anything wrong with her singing 
. people are just mad 'cause they didn't get to see the whole show... or maybe they're just salty cuz the dolphins won 
... Karina Pasian's outfit was giving me major 'what was she thinking?!' 
A mini dress with thigh-highs and long gloves? That's just too much drama 
. But hey, at least her vocals were fire 
. Still, kudos to her for bringing some US music to Spain - that's what it's all about! 
. Nevertheless, it's heartening to see that many fans appreciated her voice, even if they disagreed with her fashion choices.
her outfit might not have been everyone's cup of tea, but let's be real, she slayed that national anthem 
anyway, I'm all about empowering artists to express themselves through their music and style 
. I mean, I know she's got some serious pipes on her, but those gloves and stockings were a bit too much, if you ask me 
I get it, fashion is all about taking risks, but girl, you went ALL IN on that look! 
️ it's not like she was trying to disrespect the anthem or anything. and can we talk about how awesome it is that she got to perform in madrid for the first nfl game over there? 
the fact that american music is making waves in europe is a beautiful thing. anyway, i do feel bad for her cuz it's just gonna be all over social media and some ppl might've hated on her more than they actually liked her performance 
. But honestly, her vocals were pretty amazing and I loved the energy she brought to the performance! 
. I'm just glad they brought US football to Spain for the first time - it's cool to see more international collaborations happening 
. And Karina Pasian's got talent for days 
. And yeah, that NFL game was insane! The Dolphins' win was so thrilling 
.
. Can we please just let her perform without being judged by people who clearly aren't fans? 
why didnt she go for something more comfy tho? she did sound amazing though 
its sad that some ppl focused on her clothes instead of how good she sang i bet she was nervous performing in front of all those ppl
