Fergie Addresses All-Star Game Anthem Performance

Fergie’s interesting rendition of the national anthem at the NBA All-Star Game, didn’t come off as the singer planned and she wants to get the last word in about it.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, a statement was released almost immediately due to the increasing amount of patriotic backlash after her performance, Fergie just wants everyone to know that her artistic choice didn’t shine through the way she intended. “I’ve always been honored and proud to perform the national anthem and last night I wanted to try something special for the NBA,” the singer said. “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.”
