Seriously people.. shes human.. we make mistakes.. get over it.. no need to bash anyone
Man, she looks like a tramp on meth...
Actually, my apologies to all the tramps on meth out there for the insult.
Christina Aguilera.. a true insperation to all americans.. i bet you she los tthe lyrics and had to get them off the naked gun dvd
ruffnutt? do YOU know the lyrics? cuz i dont. heck until everyone started bashin her about it i didnt even notice. and the halftime more than made up 4 it.
You don't know the lyrics? Where are you from? It was pretty much drilled into my head, with the Pledge of Allegiance.
The half time show..pfffffft. Bad sound...worse performers.....maybe next year
Really creepy movie she should be in about a hanged woman on a closet

I couldn't sing The Star Spangled Banner without a teleprompter. President Obama would also need one. Then there is our voices. I don't know about the President but my God, I would have tomatoes thrown at me! Probably just plan ahead and wear white and blue so at least I would look patriotic after being pelted over and over again.
No I think Christina Aguilera made a mistake but no big deal. She's human. She got up there and sang. I couldn't do it, Never ever. Unless I was really drunk and then I would probably end up stripping my way through the song.
Did you you know most women at Karaoke bars have phones with cameras?

The newer and kinder, Jim?.....This I have to see to believe. And at this point "I ain't buyin what you are sellin".
tomcat. It's true. I have reformed. It's a miracle. Those football players were belting each other around and nairly was a cuzz word used. I'm sure after some accidental ball touching there may have been. But for the most part the game, Thank you, You're welcome and Boy, you have a high I.Q. were said and heard dozens of times by players on both teams.
Hallelujah.
jim
Ah sh/t, I burnt my pizza. Oops.
@tomcat, Im with you on that one . feels like being baited into a snakepit doesnt it ? Anyway , I understand if C.A. got nervous and messed up the lyrics,honest mistake but whyd she hafta do all the wierd warbly stuff ? She can sing but sounded like a cat in heat.
raven. Green Bay winning has made me a changed man. I apologize to you for the mean untrue words. In the future, I will be kinder.
jim
Singing? Is that why she's famous? Now i think so much less of her. Thought she was just courtney love's body double

God's helpers keep a journal for everyone here on Earth. Every word you utter, verbal or written is recorded on a journal. Then Saint Peter reviews it with you after you die at the big gates. Then you are sent to step two. So be careful as to what you say or write.
God's helpers? Lol. How do ya get a gig like that?
@leeintulsa
I think you have to check the box that claims that you like little boys...
Yes, I went there. But hey, its true. Christianity apparently is a cult for men who like boys. Scary!
I think the poor girl just got nervous, that's all. When Janet Jackson sang it, she showed that she has nerves of steel and a pretty nice pair.
nice Cesar...lol
@Tomcat, as for Jim's pitch, I'm not buying it either. No offense Jimmy boy.
If one receives an invitation to sing the national anthem before millions of people at least she should have learned the words.
as if a pop star messing up the words to the National Athem is the worst of America's problems. Seriously.
The problem is that its the national Anthem...a song which every child learns at an early age and is heard daily across this nation at all sporting events. Forgetting the lyrics is like forgetting how to ride a bike. You should never forget!
