After singer Ingrid Andress’s performance of the national anthem at Monday’s Home Run Derby at Arlington, Texas, prompted widespread backlash on social media, she apologized for being drunk and said she was seeking help.

“I’m checking myself into a facility today to get the help I need,” the singer said on Instagram, the Associated Press reported. “That was not me last night. I apologize to MLB, all the fans, and this country I love so much for that rendition.”

The 32-year-old country artist, who has been a Grammy Award nominee four times including Best New Artist in 2021, had found herself compared to other infamous anthem performances.

The third baseman for the Philadelphia Phillies, Alec Bohm, appeared to be stifling laughter as he listened to the rendition, in which Ms. Andress often sang off key and missed notes altogether.

Some social media users likened the performance to Fergie’s rendition of the song at the 2018 NBA All-Star Game. “Fergie can finally rest,” joked one X user.

“I’m a risk-taker artistically, but clearly this rendition didn’t strike the intended tone,” Fergie said afterward. “I love this country and honestly tried my best.”

Another notorious rendition was Roseanne Barr’s 1990 rendition at a San Diego Padres game, where she loudly sang the lyrics while grabbing her crotch and spitting on the pitcher’s mound.
