    I’ve been on the road and missed this. I’ll say this. It was memorable. We will never forget it. Real talk though, they need to audition people for this or something. This never should’ve gone down. I need a 30 for 30 on this.https://twitter.com/caleb_bortner/status/965399352083668994 …

        NBA exec: We messed up. Simple as that. Our main music scout was out on sexual harrassment leave... so I asked my cool neighbor what he thought. Bert: I'd loved Fergie since her days at the Black Eyed Peas. "Let's get it started" changed my life *does cabbage patch*

        My sense is that, as a now mature performer, she was trying to set up the next step of her career as a standards/jazz singer (which SO many pop singers do). and was using this as a platform to do it. Which is rather self centered and out of touch as to the message of the anthem.

        Wow, nobody has her back enough to tell her "don't do this?" She has a great voice just a poor decision. The venue didn't say "NO" at any time?
