audition fails. Kept waiting for Simon to hit the buzzer.
Colin Kaepernick stood for that one.

On a positive note, peeing her pants on stage in 2005 is no longer Fergie’s most embarrassing performance.
The funniest part is that she thinks she nailed it

I mean at least Carl Lewis went along with the joke...

Hurry up and finish the damn song
Maybe she was doing a vocal homage to Hendrix's Woodstock version

No one. However, her rendition was all over social media.

And who watches the national anthem BEFORE the all star game?

BTW What was the score? 188-186?
she was lucky to get the gig at all

Ugh

I'm not sure it's all her fault. She did ok for how the song was arranged and orchestrated outside of some weird moments (bray-ay-ay-ay-ave?!?), but nobody wants a jazzed up anthem.
FWIW

And I'm sure it's worth nothing, they changed the format this year for the All Star Game and it was probably the most competitive it's been in a couple decades. Players actually tried.

A little bit further more than that. What's funny thing here is she was on top of the world and had some surprisingly good/well received singles in 2006-2007 from her first CD.

2007 seems to be like eons ago compared to now for her and ...to be fair the rest of the world.
She’s getting more shit than Aretha , who once took more than...

twice the average time it normally takes to sing it. That was the worst “legitimate” time rendition of all time, and she was applauded for it, so nobody should be surprised that they keep inviting people to butcher the song. I just don’t know why people are shocked when singers try to take the performance as an opportunity to make it all about self promotion.

I haven't watched a regular season NBA game maybe since 2003? unless I was there (free tickets)
I think it was Jordan's last game actually
