Ingrid Andress Confesses to Being Intoxicated While Performing the National Anthem at Rocky Game – Hollywood Life
“I’m not gonna bulls**t y’all, I was drunk last night,” she wrote on all her social media platforms.
People had been trying to figure out what went wrong for the performer to give such a butchered rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner” at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. Although the singer started with a fairly traditional take on the opening lines, it quickly became apparent that she was not going to execute the song at a level consistent with her achievements, including being a four-time Grammy nominee.
Fellow singers left messages of sympathy in the comments on her social accounts.
“Love you girl. I’m sorry you’re going through this And I’m sorry the world can be so cruel. Here for you xx” wrote singer Julia Michaels.
“I’m sending you love, Ingrid. Being this open takes a lot. You’ve got this. Hang in there,” wrote fellow country star Carly Pearce.
Singer and actress Kristen Chenoweth also commented, “You are doing what you need to do. A proud moment.”
