Most times, our Star Spangled Banner is given the rousingly beautiful rendition it deserves…but it’s also a really hard song to sing. And every now & then, a celebrity will belt out a version that doesn’t exactly do justice to our national pride.
And while inevitably, someone will flub the song a little—either comically over-singing it like Fergie did at last week’s Monday Night game, messing up a couple of words like Christina Aguilera did at this year’s Super Bowl, or just forgetting entire passages of it as Cyndi Lauper did at the U.S. Open earlier this month—we guarantee no version of it will be worse than the one we’ve patched together, which not only contains those three horror shows, but just about every other high-profile Star-Spangled gaffe ever recorded at a public venue.
Watch at your own peril—you may never be able to rise for our National Anthem without chuckling uncontrollably again.
