That was absolutely awful. DH made me turn it off less than half way through.

I laughed at the players reactions.

I think she was trying to channel her inner Eartha Kitt.

Why don't I like her singing. "Big girls don't cry" is the same. Her voice is like nails on a chalkboard. (Sorry if someone is a fan...)

Why didn't someone tell her not to do it that way? She could have done a great job...but instead...eewww

I agree. That was painful to watch.
On the positive side, she did sing it live and she did remember all of the words.

Sarah Ferguson Duchess of York she was married to Prince Andrew. I like how the bar is set so low for anthem singing that "at least she remembered all the words" is an accomplishment for that horrible noise. |

I hope she has thick skin because the reactions, while funny, are pretty mean.

Maybe the is how she attempted to portray her true feelings about America as many have been expressing these days such as all the players not putting their hands over their hearts.

My question is why? Why do singers feel they have to "perform" the song to the exclusion of the crowd? There is a rugby competition on at the moment called The Six Nations, three games every second weekend, it is spine tingling to hear a stadium of people sing their hearts out when their National Anthem is played. Note on video, Ireland play two anthems, the video shows the second one which was written to represent Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland as the two nations play as one in Rugby. www.bing.com/videos/search?q=six+nations+anthems&&view=detail&mid=FD0CD929583124011F63FD0CD929583124011F63&&FORM=VRDGAR |
