From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Lady Gaga put on quite a show for the assembled spectators at Super Bowl 51 joining the ranks of former halftime performers Bruce Springsteen, Katy Perry and Beyonce.

The 30-year-old artist performed a rendition of some of her biggest hits including “Just Dance,” “Poker Face” and “Bad Romance” at the Houston, Texas stadium.

She completed her 12-minute set with no interruptions opening with “God Bless America” and delivering a stirring version of Woodie Guthrie's “This Land is Your Land” - a decision many are assuming to be a dig at Donald Trump and his administration in light of the (now lifted) travel ban.

You can watch the full set below.

Gaga ended her performance in dramatic style by jumping off a stage, a moment that has already been forever immortalised as a meme.

Other tracks she sung during her big moment included "Born This Way" and recent single "Million Reasons."

New England Patriots earned a historic comeback to beat Atlanta Falcons at this year's Super Bowl.

Trailers that were glimpsed during the sporting event included Transformers The Last Knight, The Fate of the Furious (AKA Fast & Furious 8) and the first look at season two of hit Netflix series Stranger Things.
