Poll: Comment "Love it" or "Hate it" ...

ESPN love it cause it was terrible
ESPN Hate it
Meh.
Hate it
Simon Cowell: "That's a no from me, sweetheart."
😂
LOL

SMGaming i just spit out my strawberry
Not even a cruise ship Performance
No one:
That one girl in elementary who thought she could sing:
😂
DEAD 💀💀💀💀
Omg this makes so much sense
💀💀💀
why was i that girl
Who’s here after seeing that kid sing😁
me 😂
YES. I had to see this b/c I didn't see it before today and wanted to know why Fergie was alluded to over and over after the 8-year-old's debacle. The kid probably has too much 'belief' for the truth to matter in her future (eek), which sort of seems quintessentially American, of late, I'm afraid. Sorry to get dark there.
ME
Lmao 100% Somebody called her Fergie Jr. 😂
Lmfao! Yes I knew she had seen someone and was mimicking them. Someone told me it was this 🤣🤦🏾♀️
As an American, I feel like it's my duty to watch this at least once a year to remind myself of my country's patriotism.
so real
😂😂 fr makes me laugh so bad
😂😂😂😂😂😂
You mean “problems” 🤣🤣
this is one of my most favorite comments i've ever seen on youtube lmaooo
Her manager: don't do anything too crazy just sing the national anthem
Fergie: okay-yay-yay-ayy
Pffft this is so underrated
underrated lmfao
XD
😂😂😂😂
its like a scene from a comedy movie 😂
this was a test of self control for EVERYBODY in that arena
AGREED!!!!
every time i watch this i try my HARDEST to control myself but somehow i always end up on the floor
I wpuld have burst out laughing
yeah... followed by mass vomiting
Stephen Curry was trying so hard not to laugh but when the crowd started laughing so did he 😂😂😂
i typed in ‘Fergie’ and this was the first thing that popped up…she ain’t ever gonna live this down😂🤣
Literally how I got here 💀😭😭😭😭😭
I just saw a dubbed version in my fb memories, I had to come watch the real one again lol. I didn't even finish her name, just Ferg & there it was 🤣
@@MsAmyjoy7802lmao this just happened to me as well I was watching the SNL version and I was like let me watch the real thing again 🤣🤣
@joshuapeterson2366 it didn't disappoint 😅. It grows, continues to progress as it goes 🤣🤣. Once it cuts to the mouth breather, that's where ppl really start to break 🤣🤣🤣
@joshuapeterson2366 omg, didn't know there was an SNL skit. I had to look for it lol. One with Maya Rudolph? If so, it's funny, because that's actually older than Ferg's lol
I saw that Fergie issued an apology 😅🤣
She sounds like someone doing karaoke after one too many drinks 😂
She definitely taken something.
so did the eight-year-old. her parents/guardians have some splainin to do
6 too many
@@terryblake5076 facts bro 😂😂
She can sing though.
When she said ⬆️↗️⤵️↪️🔁⤴️↗️⤵️ I felt that
underrated
HHAHAHHHAHAHA
Mr Papaya she spelt coconut while singing
Mr Papaya lmao
hahahahaha
The “let’s play some basketball!” Made it that much worse.
The cringe
Lmfaoooo it sure did
lmao fr, i was like "what else was supposed to happen tonight"
I know. So corny 😂
I wish she would have messed up which sport it was
"Let's play some basketball" is the icing on the cake
This performance was 5 years ago but when times are tough I still come back to it 😭
Lolllll!
Even as a reminder that there's someone who has it worse 😂
Everyone else trying their best to keep a straight face: 😐
Chance the Rapper: 😃
snoop dogg really stood still🤣🤣🗿
Well, Chance is always smiling
😂😂
@@anitadhm_ 🗿
That was the one and only attempt not to look awkward on camera just like rest of everyone there
The camera guys were savages. They knew exactly what they were doing lmao

Omg true that 😂😂😂
Drunk aunt at a kids birthday party energy
Wow, your drunk aunt can make shitty songs interesting.
Who came here after the little girl’s rendition???
you came
Yep
Omg me too 😂
I did
Me!
That one girl in class who thinks she can sing:
🤣🤣
BABDHSHS
So accurate omgg😂
Correction : kids thinking they can sing well
My version even though it isn't the type of video
Parents: "You can sing well."
Their kid: *can't sing but has overflowing confidence*
Also their kid: *auditions for a show like let's say "The X factor"*
Judges: "You can't sing."
Their kid: *gets upset*
When players start laughing you know it's pretty bad.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Every American in the stadium either cringed or laughed
True lol
1:40 Draymond looks kinda turned on ngl
@Lee Nguyễn IKR 🤣🤣
Years later, now I don't think it was vocally bad. It was just the way she was singing it lol
Yeah it’s her confident body language and how the jazzy voice doesn’t match the energy of the room. The whole performance is just giving awkward vibes but it doesn’t actually sound bad, especially if you close your eyes
Yeah, if this were any other song, she'd be getting dollar bills stuffed in her g-string, but this is the National Anthem at an All-Star game, not a Marine's bachelor party.
@@orlandofoxxxshe missed half the notes and started off key 😂😂
Right! Like she was doing weird voices, but like she has a great vibrato and a powerful voice
I must be in the minority. I liked it. What if she meant this as satire?
Every time they cut to a player absolutely fighting for their life not to laugh 😂
This physically hurts me and I’m not even American.
Metalhead 1966 same lol
😂😂😂😂😂
Me too buddy
Ozzy man did it first
SAMEEEE
She sounds like she's trying to seduce the flag
The white flag of surrender?.
dragonfly6908 maybe ahah
BYEEEEEEEEE🖐🏼😩
It’s 3AM and I’m Cackling 😭😭
IM CRYING
why did she try to make the national anthem sexy 😭
MY MUSIC TEACHER PLAYED THIS IN CLASS AND WE DIED😂
That's why they're a music teacher and not a singer.
@MastersMas✂️💯👌🏾terson-rp4zr
I think Van Gogh was onto something when he cut his ear off.
pencilskipschips underrated comment haha
Lmao you obviously have a good sense of humor
He actually only cut of a very tiny part at the very bottom, so it wouldn’t have affected his hearing.
JD Bond yo way to spoil a joke😂
Israel B yes but because of that reason it wasn’t very well thought out. It was a good joke though.
To quote Simon Cowell, “that was musical murder.”
😂
😂
Also another quote Simon Cowell” You shouldn’t been a singer at all”
@@brendannotfound Great quote.
@Khangelani Chili That's another good quote. I mean, that performance Fergie did would definitely be a no from him.
Poor thing.....she was so proud of herself. Bless her heart
Better than you'll ever do
@@MastersMasterson-rp4zr Oh you really thought you ate with that, huh? Sir ...I may not be able to sing (professionally) but baby I have ears and I would assume most of us that heard this travesty have them as well.
@@KSSMobileNotary the only thing making it a travesty is that it's the star spangled banner
Who tf sat thru these rehearsals and was like,
“this is gonna be so iconically terrible, we can’t stop it”
The NERVE and CONFIDENCE she had to shout: LET'S PLAY SOME BASKETBALL
I just think it was just kinda silly after that god-awful performance
@@moesalamander7012 exactly, i cringed so hard after she shouted that 💀
@@ab2144 sO far the worse performance anyone has done in front of thousands of people
I would LOVE to see you sing it any better
That was my favorite part 😂😂 She thought she just nailed that performance!
anyone else just randomly remember this exists and come back to it to laugh?
🙋🏻♂️
Oh yeah its fcking hilarious!
It's what I'm doing here right now. :)
😀me!
Me hahahaha
The laughing faces at the end...😂
Bro all the players were dying inside 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
When she said "Bah-Ah-Ner-rEr-yeh-yeht-way-hayve", I felt that 😣

I felt it in my colon.
😭 dead
This wins 😂
Why does she sound like she’s trying to sound like Marilyn Monroe singing happy bday to jfk😂😂😂😂😂
Haha. I just made the same reference in my comment too. This is the first time that I have seen this video. I can't remember what I was doing online that lead me to it.
lol
Haaaapppy birrrthday Mr president🤮
Same thought went through my head 🤦♀️
@Savage AF heard it already boo try something new next time🙂
I’m Here After The Little Girl And I Speak For Us All, Fergie We Apologize 😭 The Girl Is Now Crowned
1:22 she sounds like daisy gettin her back blown out by Luigi💀💀
Crazy
OH NAHH
Imagine in that moment she thought
“Man im killing this”
Lol I was thinking that
She’s killing alright, killing peoples ears 😂
@@caseohsdookie 😂😂😂😂😂
Bruh
it's a literal killing for sure.
When she said “mmbraaaaAaAaaaaAAAaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVvvVVvvvvVVVVeeeEeeeeEeEEeeaeE”
I felt that

she went, 📉📈📉 I felt that

This is the funniest comment I have ever read.
Here after that young child who wanted to continue the legacy 🤭🇺🇲
I am Pakistani and i come back to hear this every year 😭😭😂
HER CONFIDENCE WAS KILLING ME
she really looked like she thought she was killing it
@@Kate-hr6hr Yes? Don't all countries do that? I'm not American but anyone can sing the national anthem in my country, it's a national anthem.
I'm American and yes, they usually ask celebrities and famous singers to sing at games but this...this was an exception 😂
@@elsie7280 Fergie use to be big but idk what happened to her voice
Yeah she sang the “hit it fergie” I really don’t think this is her style of music tho
She’s singing in doctors handwriting
Yep either we die or healed lol
HAHAHAHAHAHA
Bruh....😆😆😆😆😆
XD
😂😂😂😂😂😂
A national anthem performance that will be forever remembered for all the wrong reasons.
whoever let fergie go out and sing like this must have a personal vendetta against her💀
I think the worse thing about this is that she genuinely thinks she is doing a good job.
she apologized for that lol
Leap Year of likes
Not just that she makes millions when she goes on tours. I wonder if she uses autotune!?!?. I hope she does. Lol.
Fergie is the only example I have for a person who can sing but sabotages themselves trying to one up everyone else at once, in the same song.
You don’t have to hate she did fine it was not that bad
The fact that this happened 6 years ago and the internet has just brought it to me now mean it was meant to be buried.
I love how comments from only like 2 months ago have over 1k likes, like this moment is genuinely historic! In this age of meme culture where everyone forgets about things 2 days after they happen, it is monumental how much this moment is still revisted by thousands
I think everyone gets a kick out of that except Fergie. This overshadowed everything else she did.
She somehow managed to make a one syllable word become five syllables
💀
That’s what 99% of singers so with the national anthem to try and make it sound original.
😭😭😭😭😭💀
@@some_metalhead no one except Roseann sings it this bad.
🤣🤣🤣
That one drunk auntie that thinks they can sing.
*Thinks
@@fanfan2489 thxs
I- this is trueeee😂💀
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

My dog just left the room 💀
Watching this before Super Bowl
I’ll never understand why she chose to sing this in a style that sounds like a crusty old lounge singer trying to impersonate Jessica Rabbit.
😂
You my friend.... summed that up perfectly. 😂 bravo
Oh my god pls stop 😂😂😂😂😂😂💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
R/rareinsults
This comment killed me
Her manager: "You should re-imagine it. Make it your own. Don't even think of the historical context or the meaning of the words. And make it sexy. Really go for it."
Lmaoooooo
HAHAHAHA
YES!!!!
That's perfect! Lol
☠️
She made Francis Scott Off-Key proud that night
I need to revisit this at least once a year. The anthem is going on right now for this year's ASG.
I don't like Steph or Draymond very much but their reactions always crack me up.
Something Warriors fans like me, and non warriors fans like you can all agree on 🤝
She sounds like two cats fighting on the roof at 3am
in the rain, lol
I’m laughing so hard right now 😹😹😹
LMAOO STOP😭😭
That's not fighting. 😅
HAHAHAAHA
Lol, Stephen Curry was trying so hard not to laugh but he couldn’t hold it in.
same wit draymond bc he broke first then everyone after
racingstripes103 hahah yeah
It's just because Green laughed first :)
Chance just didn’t give af 😂 he was dying from the beginning
IRL try not to laugh challenge.
Honestly the players did a really good job not laughing if I was there I would’ve been dying on the floor
She thought she killed it at the end with that "Lets play some basketball!" 😭😭
"I'm taking a break from the black eyed peas to work on my solo career"
Her solo career:
lmao tae tae!!! love it heehee :P x

When she hit that high note she sounded like she was getting tased.
I got a good chuckle out of this one
lol lol lol... I can't breathe...
Chile bye 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@MisteriousGaga well whatever it was it was rough. How about that?
the end honestly makes me feel so sad and kinda guilty for laughing so hard cuz she looked so proud of herself like, "yup, definitely nailed that"
Amann Ahmad I don’t feel so bad she’s a multi-millionaire in spite of having no discernible talent
bcooney24 She’s actually a good singer. Nothing amazing but she’s definitely not talentless. I still think she was intoxicated during this performance.
Let's pLaY sOmE bAsKEt bAll
Well, she is the host of the show The Four: Battle for Stardom, in which competitors peform a song in their own style. Maybe that's where she got her inspiration from 🤷
@@antoniourbanojr.6383 Yeah and honestly the main reason why people hated on it so much is cuz the national anthem is supposed to be with the traditional music and stuff and the way she sang it.. well with the low whisper's and moan-like singing it kind of degraded the song. A lOT
As an Italian I've heard: by the janjzer leeliii. Uatchaaa proud Lee yeahhh. Ettchualite esklymate. Uh bratchraisss embrite...
After this I lost myself. 😅
forever iconic😭

Chance was like I'm definitely not putting her on my next mixtape
When I am feeling down and out, I always come back to this song. It brings tears to my eyes from all the laughing I am doing~ Thank you fergie, there are no words to express how you sing this song~
Imagine… you’re from another country and you have been invited to sing the national anthem for a US game… and this is the only version you know….
she created singing in cursive
Or the worst 3rd grader hand writing possible

And she's up there thinking everyone is enjoying it 😂
They were wrong for zooming in on the players face 😂😂
Frr

They knew what they was doing 🤣
For real tho
😂😂yes
No one:
Fergie: I'm about to end my whole career
Syafiq Adli she already ended it like around 2015 I think
I mean that's already happened when she left The Black Eyed Peas so
True dat. I like Fergie's other music, though.
@@rawnuhld True. That's when her decline started. This performance just put the nail in the coffin.
Best comment I’ve ever read😂
Every now and then, when I feel down, I go back to this video. Then, life shines bright again.
Literally murderd tf outta that song
😂
I am personally offended by this and I’m not even American.
Wasn't expecting to find someone who liked GD in this comment section, but I couldn't agree more
Everyone was secretly trying not to laugh
You do have functionality in your ears though, right? Because if you do, this _is_ horribly offensive.
Okay but as an American, I think the only point of life is to make fun of Americans
J J xddd i love u beautiful bastards
I’m never going to complain about a lip sync performance again
I am Egg Amen to that
