I am not sure if it's Drugs or alcohol but yeah it is the weirdest National Athem performanceon a sexual way I had ever seen in my life. This is a singer known to be able to hit the high notes and known to be able to sing but Also it is weird that she changed the genre of the song. In other countries people can be jailed for singing a National Anthem differently. She sang it like it is part of the Soundtrack of 50 shades of Gray. I know it is bad to laugh at people but I can't help it.

A bit jazzie and a bit butchered, it remembered be when a French singer sang our anthem like a reggae. But I would give the gold medal for butchering an anthem to this Libyan military band playing the "God Save the Queen".
A Libyan military band tried to perform the British national anthem for the arrival of Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson as he arrived in Benghazi. There's a b...

@CaptAlbertWhisker It looks like they had never played it before. The Egyptian army is also gifted for slaughtering foreign anthems, there are various extracts available on Youtube, but the Libyans are the best.

Well she just went through a divorce. That might be a clue.

The only thing missing from her performance is a pole.

Cringe cringe cringe! And did you see some of the people's reactions ? I thought she was a better singer than that, but um, well, I guess she should stick to her own music genre .

@topffer Those were big fails with a capital F! Although the "divas" at the end were not bad . . . at least they were tons better than Fergie's strange version!!

Your post made me listen to it... I really don't know what to say about it, but I feel that it had zero respect and motivation that it usually inspires after hearing it. I mean, it is a wartime song... not something sung in the bedroom of a red light district.

Yeah she sang it way too sexy that it made pornstars look like nuns. She said she did it because she is a risk taker.

@OneOfMany It is like being a surgeon and deciding to do it blind folded because you are a risk taker.

@CaptAlbertWhisker I tend to agree with some others that say there is a time and place for different renditions. Usually, not when you have no choice but to listen to it. XD

I think she bungled the song on purpose to disrespect the anthem, the flag, and America.

It could be a publicity stunt on her part.

@CaptAlbertWhisker It is possible but I still think it was disrespect. A lot of people don't like the anthem. I hope they never pick her to sing it again.

@akalinus Few Months ago she performed at the Miss Universe Pageant and she is like having a breakdown while singing. Maybe she is in a stage of her life where she should be mentally resting instead of performing. I think her terrible performance is a result of her personal life. She is going through a divorce.

She just forgot she is singing a National Anthem and she is not in a bedroom seducing someone.

Coincidence that a Spanish female Singer here had taken it on herself to sing the Spanish National Anthem with different words but the same music. She did quite alright but has caused quite a stir. This is a Singer that I donĀ“t know much of and I will say that she seems to have a great voice apart from that.

@CaptAlbertWhisker Yes I saw her sing another song on youtube and she sang that one really well. I quite like her. She does have a great voice though.

@CaptAlbertWhisker All in all I think that she is a great Singer though. Even if she does do that every so often.

she is known for being a high notes belter but has tendency to add so much sexuality on her music.

When I heard it I thought it must be a joke because it sounded so terrible. So it was actually serious?

She decided to make it sexy. She turned the song into something strippers can dance to.
