Fergie Apologizes for Sultry National Anthem 'Tried My Best '
Fergie
Fergie  apologized on Monday for  her  sultry version of the national anthem the night before that didn’t go over so well at the NBA All-Star Game  particularly on social media. Even Roseanne Barr chimed in.
 Fergie   42  acknowledged that  her  slowed-down jazzy version – as described by People magazine – didn’t strike the right note. Others described  her  take on the “Star Bangled Banner” as “sexy.”
"I've always been honored and proud to perform the national anthem and last night I wanted to try something special for the NBA "  she  said  per People. "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."
"Something insane and terrible happened before tonight’s NBA All-Star Game " said Chris Thompson  a writer for sports website Deadspin. "No one will ever be able to explain it to my satisfaction. Even in the context of the NBA's disastrous  shriekingly awkward pregame nightmare   Fergie’s national anthem  was an absolute abomination. A goose being strangled in your living room would produce a much more pleasant series of noises."
Actress and comedian Roseanne Barr  whose rendition of  the national anthem  in 1990 at San Diego's Jack Murphy Stadium was roundly criticized as one of the worse  per the Sporting News  even criticized Ferguson's performance on Twitter.
