        Fergie's rendition of the national anthem was so bad ... I think Trump & Pence took a knee! 🙃 #FergieNationalAnthem

        Well it was an extremely awkward situation! 🤦🏻‍♀️ But we all make mistakes the difference is most of us have the luxury of making them in private 🙈🙈🙈 So let’s try to be human about it ... 😊

        Hahaha, "I'm a risk taker" Is code for "I f@#ked up". Please don't disrespect the anthem again with your risk taking. Please & thank you.

        The National Anthem is the 1 song you don't jazz up, hip hop or soul out. Sing the damn song the way it is supposed to be sung. If you cant reach the notes DON'T TRY IT.

        No one should experiment (or allowed to experiment) with any anthem whatsoever. Experiments are for other la la la songs PERIOD. Fergie is great, but: IT'S THE NATIONAL ANTHEM.
