    Much like Fergie ‘s unforgettable performance at the 2018 NBA All-Star game, Ingrid Andress ‘ rendition of the national anthem at the Home Run Derby Monday (July 15) is going viral for all the wrong reasons.

    The four-time Grammy winner was subjected to online ridicule well before she stepped away from the microphone at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, with critics pointing to the “More Hearts Than Mine” singer’s pitchy performance immediately. Separate camera angles captured fireworks exploding over the arena as she sang, while others showed a few of the MLB pros gathered on site appearing to stifle laughter as she sang.

    In short, it wasn’t exactly a home run. And when it came to criticizing Andress online, it didn’t take long for fans on social media to step up to the plate. “My ears are bleeding,” one viewer tweeted. “One of the worst national anthem renditions ever.”

    “It is impressive that this Ingrid Andress has missed every single note,” another person wrote. “That was painful.”

    Billboard has reached out to Andress’ reps for comment.

    The “Star-Spangled Banner” is a famously difficult tune to sing. She’s also far from the first star to face criticism for her attempt at conquering the patriotic anthem, with Andress now joining the company of Christina Aguilera, Kat DeLuna, Steven Tyler and, perhaps most notably in recent history, Fergie. (Although, some people are saying that Andress has actually dethroned the Black Eyed Peas frontwoman for “worst national anthem of all time,” as one user put it on X.)

    In any case, one commented said it best: “I hope Ingrid Andress stays off of social media for a minute,” they wrote. Keep reading to see more reactions to Andress’ performance of the National Anthem below.
