NBA All-Star weekend was full of headlining events but there’s one in particular that has Twitter…well, doing what twitter does best. Pretty much EVERYBODY had something to say about Fergie’s jazz style rendition on The Star Spangled Banner that even had a lot of celebrities in attendance cracking up as well. Although there are some fans out there telling Twitter to leave Fergie alone, others hilariously expressed their opinions.
Fergie took a lot of heat from the internet after last night performance but recently she broke her silence and says she was just trying to take a risk, and clearly it didn’t pay off. The former Black Eyed Peas member said “I’ve always been honored and proud to perform the national anthem and last night I wanted to try something special for the NBA. 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.”
