St. Vincent Crushed the National Anthem and Showed Off Her Impressive Dribbling Skills at L.A. Sparks Game

St. Vincent provided one of the rare high points at Crypto.com Arena for the home team L.A. Sparks on Thursday night (Aug. 15) with her fiery rendition of the National Anthem. The shape-shifting indie rocker hit all the tricky high notes of the notoriously hard-to-sing “Star-Spangled Banner,” and even though she had her trusty signature electric guitar on a stand behind her, the “Broken Man” singer went a cappella as she stood on the arena floor in a brown leather jacket, short black skirt and black high-heels.

That warm-up, however, was not enough to spur the Sparks to victory, as the moribund 6-19 franchise suffered their most one-sided loss of the season during the not-ever-close 103-68 blowout loss to the league-leading New York Liberty. In a pre-game warm-up clip posted in the St. Vincent Reddit, the singer born Annie Clark showed off her impressive dribbling skills in a backstage green room, deftly bouncing the ball between her legs while again dressed to go out, not go hard in the paint.

“Oh weird, I didn’t see you there, I’m gonna be the national anthem at the Liberty/Sparks game on August 15th,” she said while impressively keeping the ball spinning on her finger. The clip ended with Vincent tossing the ball out of frame and saying, “and one!” before it bounced back and nearly hit her.
