It appears she was drunk?
What an embarrassment.

I think it sounded exactly like what she was going for. But what she was going for was a style that just doesn’t go with that song.
The song sounds it’s best when it is kept simple. The problem is it takes a very good voice to pull that off. Whitney and Beyonce and a few others understood that.
Yeah, here and there I thought I heard bits of Marilyn Monroe's JFK "Happy Birthday" in there.It was weird to say the least. At time I thought she was trying to channel Billie Holiday and at other times perhaps trying to bring on an orgasm. I greatly prefer Ray Charles doing AMERICA.
Am I the only one who thought the "Let's play some basketball!" actually managed to be the most cringeworthy part?
It was planned and intentional sarcasm.
Her rendition was a poorly concealed validation of the thugs that have been refusing to stand for the National Anthem.
She ridiculed our flag.
You could see it in her smirky expression and the open laughter of some of the more radical America-hating thugs (like Labron James) who were enjoying the show.
The more patriotic players looked embarrassed. It WAS an embarrassment to America.
So.......yawn. Just more stupid thuggery.
Fergie Apologizes for NBA All-Star Game National Anthem | TMZ.com"I've always been honored and proud to perform the national anthem and last night I wanted to try something special for the NBA. I'm a risk taker artistically, but clearly this rendition didn't strike the intended tone. I love this country and honestly tried my best."
