3 It's not the worst mangling of the National Anthem, but it's close. The "pop sensation" should save the diva-flava for her own music. 4732042

2 Not quite so bad as hearing a BCS Defensive Coordinator's daughter butcher Amazing Grace the same way in a Church, or seeing two different people forget the words in back to back games: http://sportsontheair.blogspot.com/2008/02/what-are-words-to-national-anthem-again.html 2758621

1 I agree, that lady was awful. They should have checked first to see if she knew how to sing. It's like she was doing a mix of Maya Rudolph and a revving car engine. 2756681

<div> One of the worst trends in sports has been this need for singers walking out onto the playing field before the game to get creative with the National Anthem. There’s just no need to turn Francis Scott Key’s patriotic number into a Timbaland hit.   Kat DeLuna, who’s apparently a “pop sensation,” butchered the national anthem so badly on Monday Night that she was booed at Texas Stadium, a place that’s probably never booed while the national anthem was being sung.   Here’s DeLuna’s performance followed by a hilarious sketch by Maya Rudolph on Saturday Night Live poking fun at the absurdity of some of today’s anthem crooners. Which one would you rather hear? I’ll take the latter. At least Rudolph’s rendition makes me laugh instead of cringe.     <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="350" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"> <param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/j5dXH_M2suM" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/j5dXH_M2suM"></embed> </object>     <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="350" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"> <param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/gItsdEMCDQI" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/gItsdEMCDQI"></embed> </object> </div> http://img.fannation.com/upload/user_profile/image/396/7/thumb/markazi_arash.jpg 118 CA
