Sports fans will have some big moments coming up this summer. The MLB All Star Game is on the horizon, and who could forget Ciara’s stunning performance at it last year? The thought of belting out what most musicians refer to as a song that has a ‘tough scale’ must be frightening to any polished performer. Here are a few memorable poor renditions of our National Anthem…
Christina Aguilera sang the Anthem at the 2011 Super Bowl, but was marred with Christina losing her place interchanging lyrics.
Michael Bolton’s performance at a Red Sox vs. Yankees baseball game in 2003 was epic when we discovered he had the words written on him palm.
Steven Tyler tried his hand at the National Anthem, but failed unfortunately. He’s got a great voice, but maybe it just wasn’t made for this song. It does help to remember the words though. Tyler struggled through it during the 2002 AFC title game.
Roseanne Barr at a 1990 San Diego Padres game, though not a championship game, was simply the worst ever live performance and it didn’t seem to bother her at all.
