How can anyone botch the National Anthem? Especially when they are being paid six figures to sing it? And in addition, CA did an AWFUL job, she should return all her pay for that atrocity! Or at least donate it to some foundation that helps teach kids how to sing!

Anyone who thinks Fergie and Christina Aguilera can sing are tone deaf :roll:

Could have been worse guys. It could have been Justin Bieber,Lady Gaga,Willow Smith or Miley Cyrus singing and botching everything. Now that would have been awful.

    It's only the biggest stage all year for viewers in our country. Here is a video of it for those that missed it:

    Can't we get someone that can sing better and that knows the words to do it?

    I like this tweet from Deion Sanders

    "Y'all leave Christina alone i was just informed that was the remix. The nfl was running behind so she was sweet enough to help us out."

    You know she got busted a week or two ago passing out at a party. Wonder if she's still hungover.

    A rather crappy attempt I agree. They should stick to country singers in the future.

    But Fergie was no axl rose attempting that sweet child o mine bit either.

    Singing at the super,bowl gets a D minus

    the Halftime show was even WORSE!

    Black Eyed Peas - Bleh ... Never understood how Fergie got famous. She sucks at singing and besides a tan bod, has nothing going for her.

    That was, without a doubt, the worst performance I have ever heard in my life from anyone, much less one who is considered to be a professional. There was no artistic intreprtation of the music itself as the term is might imply. The improvised take offs reminded me of birthing cattle in a valley. The inflection and tone throughout her presentation was what I might expect from a drug crazed rapper if a half note could have been held in time. The choreography, as limited as it was, seemed fitting for a junior high solo, and the lyrics were barely recognized, at least those that were bellowed out.

    Disgraceful is a good discription.

    Sorry, I think that of all the music that could be played at such an event, with artistic license, the national anthem should be performed exactly as it is written. It seems unpatriotic to jazz it up, sing it with a country twang, ball it out as pop, or perform it in any popular style, it is a historic piece and should be presented with reverence and respect.

    I think the reason everyone screws with it because they can't sing it the way it is written, it is difficult.

    I would rather hear it performed by one of the military choirs with proper accompaniment, say the Marine Band and choir.

    I agree Bill but we are talking about sporting events. They are all about the big bucks so they are going to bring in the biggest artists in music to sing our anthem regardless if they can't sing worth a crap.

    Whatever draws people that is where they are going to go with.

    My vote is to have Vegas strppers perform pole dances to recorded music for next superbowl, this year was as bad as Jessica Simpsons sister's performance in which she was boo'ed from the entire stadium.
