I'm glad she's getting herself busy again and back on track.
She sounded SOOO good. I wish I could hit those type of notes. This girls voice is out of this world.
stay strong beautiful!!
Very nice Jen!!
You are my inspiration.
first! best version ive ever heard!
She did an amazing job. Welcome back!
I absolutely had tears in my eyes. For a minute she looked like maybe she couldnt do it, but she did it and did it beautifully! Good for you, Jennifer!
Amazing, flawless! It was perfection! Brought tears to my eyes. God Bless her!
brought tears to me eyes!
WHAT AN AMAZING RENDITION !! SUPERB !! BRAVO J-HUD !! A TRUE TALENT AND A DIVA TO BEAT ..PROLLY THE BEST "STAR SPANGLED BANNER" PERFORMANCE IN A SUPER BOWL EVER !! GOD SPEED J-HUD !!!
Stunning — simply amazing
Aww, cool! It's good to see that she's back!
Amazing.
it was great. but i don't think it was actually live. most superbowl performances aren't.
WELL LOOKS LIKE IF YOU BET THE OVER ON 2:03 IN VEGAS YOU WON
oh wow
BEAUTIFUL!!! best i've seen!!!
Too bad these performers can't just sing the song and try to make it their own.
That being said I thought she was quite good and was happy to see her looking good.
it shows up as katys appearance on chelsea lately on the main oage,,,
amazing
She should have done the inauguration . . . not Aretha Franklyn.
Sing it girl
You sounded great
Bravo
Kudos
Wow - that was powerful! Loved It! Praying for you, Jenn…
it was obviously lip synch!!!!
it was sooo great. im soooo proud of her. her voice was flawless!!!! the rest and grieving gave her a good advantage.
Good for her! That was one of the best if not The Best performace I've seen for the super bowl.
I am very happy for her her famly will be proud!
That was AMAZING. It gave me chills. She is one the the best singers out there today.
Simply amazing.
That was completely lip-synched. If you are going to lip-synch our freaking national anthem then don't accept to perform at all.
She should have been the one to sing for Obama and Michelle at the inaugural balls, NOT Beyonce!!!
she sounded wonderful. and this is such a good game.
Very nice! It's good to see she is doing well. God bless
It was so beautiful, I teared up. She is so amazingly talented.
Just before she started singing, she took a deep breath and closed her eyes. I could almost feel her thoughts: I wish my mom where here to see this. What a heavy weight on her shoulders to bare. She sounded GREAT and looked beautiful. Your mom was there with you, Jennifer, we all were….
Jennifer, I am so proud of you
Fabulous. Can't help thinking that her recently deceased relative would be so proud of her. I was.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. I mean….WOOOOOOOOOOOOW. And this woman did NOT win American Idol!?!?! That was amazing….
That was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!
Jennifer did wonderful!
I would list her in my top after
Beyonce Knowles, Whitney Houston, Carrie Underwood…
Beautiful girl, amazing rendition. I'm not even American and that made me feel proud. She was so brave. God bless Jen.
Re: mjs –
the singer who do the national anthem at the superbowl HAVE to lip sing it because after Roseanne went and butchered it and treated it as a joke, they made it a regulation that it had to be pre recorded BUT, it is pre recorded LIVE. so she would have sung it just like she did now in say, sound check, and then thats what they use as playback. So dont hate on her, because it wasnt her choice. Last year Jordin Sparks landed in hot water for lip singing it until people found out that its the Superbowl rules.
A-mazing!
great job Jen!
Gave me chills!!! BEAUTIFUL!!
Re: LoveDC –
What's wrong with make the song their own? I mean, the song is sung so many times, it's always nice to hear other people's take on it.
Best version I've ever heard and though Whitney and Beyonce's were good too, I feel like Jennifer's was the BEST!!!!!! She brought tears to my eyes!
Re: Sweet – get over your life
Re: CHANCE – "The rest and grieving gave her a good advantage" - a you for real?????
So having 3 members of your immediate brutally murdered is an advantage.
Fuck me - do you need a reality check or what???
i thought she did an amazing job! GO JENNIFER!!
wow wow wow
she looked and sounded amazing!!
amazing!!!!
Re: Andy27 – Why do you even fucking bother fuck knuckle?
Re: Andy27 – Are you so desperate for attention that you have to come to a message board for the sole purpose of spreading negativity? Poor thing, you are quite sad.
goosebumps
that was such a great performance, her voice is so amazing. it gave me chills!
Re: misskeli –
Who cares that she didn't win American Idol ?
She won an Oscar !!!
She looked good and sounded good…
She was AMAZING!!! I wish her the best!!
❤❤❤
She was incredible!! I got goose bumps from her voice. So happy she is back
Re: mamajud – Hey Mama - what are you doing lurking around??? LOL How the skijooring going? (I dont think I spelt that right). (o:
Re: AdamMiami – WOW you think it's funny to say she should have been murdered like the other members of her family. You and your kind are whats wrong with the world. Not even as a joke should you have written that.
fuck she's insanely talented.
Re: puppies are soft! – For someone with such a sweet nickname you sure have an ugly soul.
Peddle your hate somewhere else.
I bet you're an absolute oil painting right?? Best looking in your trailer park??
That was amazing!! A real performer… Remember Demis version at the Grey Cup… Just awful. This was phenomenal though. Just amazing.
Re: AdamMiami – fuck you. she was amazing, and she had 3 loved ones taken away from her in the most disgusting and inhumane way possible. i hope you fucking die, you little worthless whore.
Good for her!!
She did an amazing job!
Re: Mistress – LOL!!!! just touched base for a few minutes!! You know Andy is Assume is The Real Orchid ..is..etc etc..I don't know what happened but miss Orchid Girl! We had good times..
that was phenominal, gave me goose bumps, and i teared up.
Re: puppies are soft! –
I'm just wondering why you are so obsessed with her size… I mean, does her size effect you? Does saying hateful things make you happy?
awesome job!
HATERS STFU!
it was really good! she was stunning!
wow everything about that was beautiful
GREAT JOB JENNIFER! I'm sure your family was proud of you!
Re: AdamMiami – GO SUCK A INFECTED COCK!
J-HUD is a true professional. Outstanding performance
Beautiful
Why does everyone try and just oversing the shit out of this song - not as bad as Aretha - but just sing it… twiiiiliiiiiiights…it doesn't sound right. Not a fan - feel bad for what she went through - but that doesn't mask that it was just mediocre…
Re: puppies are soft! – Lick me pigmy!!!!
Totally AWESOME!!
Eat THAT, Beyonce!
Wow, what a voice! No wonder she won an Oscar, her voice is so beautifully emotional, strong and expressive.
I think this was the best performance of the anthem I have ever heard!
I cried! It was THE best one ever done! Even better than when Whitney did it. What a way to come back! She is truly a star!
you know what? shut the fuck up saying all this shit about "oh it's lipsynced, pre-recorded, blah blah" the point is that this woman has AMAZING talent, appreciate her voice for what it is and stop nitpicking at flaws, i would seriously like to see ANY of you do much better.
Re: puppies are soft! – OK ASSUME..you are so obvious!! GET A LIFE WIMP!!!!!!!!!
she was absolutely amazing!!!
Beautiful. She has been given that gift from God. She is amazing!
That was an AMAZING performance! Wow.
Absolutely outstanding! It's good to see her getting back on track!
Stay strong Jennifer, we love you!
lame, Im so tired of hearing the anthem which should only be 1-2 min turn into a 5 min song
Re: Mistress – ANDY IS A ASSHOLE!
breathtaking.
She sounded absolutely amazing!!! Love her!!! But I couldn't help but notice the sadness on her face right before she began to sing….. kind of just a realization how hard it is to deal with such a horrible situation….still LOVED her though!!!!
AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I HAVE NEVER heard a more perfect rendition of the national anthem
She looked stunning
I wish she were the one to have sung "At Last " at the inauguration ball
I said before I didn't think anyone could ever sing it as good as Etta James
BUT DAMN !
I take that back !
amazing singer!
Re: Miss McGillicutty – you are a big ass hater if you felt like you ciuld have done better than you should have song bitch.
PUPPIES SO SOFT: SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU PIECE OF SHIT. MAYBE YOU SHOULD KILL YOURSELF AND LET THE REST OF THE WORLD BE HAPPY.
Re: crispy – Yes, the producer of the show acknowledged that it's too big a venue and too big a live event to risk having them sing live, so she did record it earlier. I could sorta tell, but I SO don't care. I love J-Hud, and she totally CRUSHED it. Welcome back, Jennifer!
Re: Anduin – it was only two and a half minutes.
She rocked it…she should have sung at the inauguration, not Aretha.
