LOS ANGELES - Fergie is apologizing after trying something different with the national anthem at the NBA All-Star Game.
“I've always been honoured and proud to perform the national anthem and last night I wanted to try something special for the NBA,” the Grammy-winning singer said in a statement Monday. “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.”
Fergie's slow, bluesy rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner” on Sunday night wasn't particularly well received at Staples Center or on social media before the 67th edition of the NBA's annual showcase.
