Fergie Addresses National Anthem Controversy & Says Her Version "Didn't Strike The Intended Tone"

DESCRIPTION
Nearly 24 hours after her controversial rendition of the national anthem, Fergie issued a statement Monday addressing criticism of her performance at Sunday's NBA All-Star Game. Her slow, bluesy rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner" before the 67th edition of the NBA's annual showcase wasn't particularly well received at the Staples Center or on social media. A low chuckle rumbled through the sold-out arena after Fergie finished the first line of the song with a throaty growl on "the dawn's early light." Posted By Persist
