The National Anthem of the United States of America is one of the hardest songs for any singer to sing due to the wide range of notes and octaves in it. There’s no hiding place, you have to be a great singer in order to do it justice. And when it was announced that American Horror Story star Lady Gaga was due to take it on before Super Bowl 50 this year, some eyebrows were raised…
Everyone knows that Gaga is a great entertainer and a huge pop star. But some people have doubted her voice in the past. But after her spectacular belting out of The Star Spangled Banner on Sunday afternoon, she’s well and truly silenced her critics.
The Poker Face star was joined onstage by the deaf performer Marlee Matlin who signed the anthem for deaf viewers. And they couldn’t have handled it better. In fact, with Coldplay performing the half-time show and the Broncos stifling the Carolina Panthers in a defensively boring game, this was the best thing about the whole event!
