According to TMZ Sports, Beyonce and husband Jay-Z did not stand during Demi Lovato's performance of the national anthem prior to Sunday's Super Bowl between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers.

That Jay-Z didn't stand is notable because his Roc Nation agency partnered with the NFL to work together on entertainment—such as the Super Bowl halftime show—and social justice initiatives.
