Christina Aguilera's performance of the National Anthem last night at the Super Bowl was unprofessional and disappointing. There is no excuse for forgetting the words if you are a professional singer.
Whatever she was paid is too much. She should return some of the money.
I am so tired of watching and listening to nearly every singer - well-known or amateur - perform rather than sing the National Anthem. This is not the American Idol, and we don't need all the vocal trills and flourishes.
The Star Spangled Banner runs 1:23 when played by a military band - it seems longer but that's what it is. Christina managed to stretch it to 2:00. It OK to hold the note on "brave" and "free" a little, but that's it.
The NFL should know better and do a much better job of hioring and instructing their singers.
