Christina Aguilera Defends Herself After Super Bowl Fumble

Filed under: Reality-Free, TV News

The Twitterverse exploded Sunday night after Christina Aguilera fumbled the lyrics to the National Anthem during the pre-game show for Super Bowl XLV.

Aguilera should have sung: “O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?” but instead repeated an earlier line with a slight variation. She sang: “What so proudly we watched at the twilight’s last gleaming.”

Although the singer was unavailable for comment straight after the gaffe, she later released a statement to the Associated Press, in which she said that she flubbed the line after getting lost in the moment and losing her place.
