Home Run Derby Singer Seeing Major Impact From National Anthem Mishap

Country singer Ingrid Andress expressed how embarrassed she was about her National Anthem performance at the Home Run Derby. But in the days since then, she has ironically benefitted from the poor showing.

The Daily Mail's Alex Raskin reported Andress' music "has spiked" in popularity on SoundCloud this week. In fact, Raskin wrote SoundCloud reps told TMZ that her overall portfolio has increased 'by over double.'

Her 2019 song, 'More Hearts Than Mine' has seen the biggest increase in listens and downloads on the popular music app. Andress' song, 'Wishful Drinking' has also seen a significant rise in popularity.

The day after her National Anthem rendition, Andress revealed on social media that she was intoxicated during the performance. She added plans to enter a rehab facility.

Raskin reported Andress cancelled two upcoming shows.

The 32-year-old singer has earned four Grammy nominations. She has also won two BMI Country Awards.

Initially, Andress received significant criticism for her National Anthem performance on social media. ESPN cameras also showed Philadelphia Phillies third baseman and Home Run Derby participant Alec Bohm appearing to fight back laughter during Andress' performance.

Major League Baseball has not released a statement about the performance or Andress announcing her plan to enter rehab.
