Last night, X Factor judge and singing starlet, Demi Lovato, stepped up to the stage plate, during game four of the World Series!

Gurl looked gorg as she took on The Star-Spangled Banner, which is NOT an easy thing to do… especially in front of all those people!

Check out DemDem’s rendition (above)!!

We think she did a pretty good job, though she definitely seemed she felt she had a lot to prove and perhaps overdid it with the Xtina-esque runs!

However, just last year, Mz. Lovato sang the National Anthem at game five of the World Series, which we preferred over this one!

You're AH-Mazing nonetheless, Demi!

Obviously we know Katharine McPhee has stellar vocals…

But girl dominates one of the HARDEST songs ever conceived on the battle field!

The SMASH star lent her patriotic self to Tide's unfurling of a 6,000 square foot American Flag in Bryant Park Tuesday, where she sweetly sang America's national anthem The Star Spangled Banner, 100% live, sans instrumental accompaniment!

Let your American flag fly with Katie's voice to lift it high (above) and then scroll on down below to view snaps of Kat's pre-fourth Summer celebration.

Happy Happy Fourth of July, lovely people!

She may have flubbed some lyrics during the Star Spangled Banner at the Super Bowl last time, but that isn't keeping Christina Aguilera down — nope. In fact, she's open to performing again, despite the embarrassment from the last time!

"I'm open. Hey, I'm up for any challenge, any time any day."

Sounds a little cocky to us. Like, maybe if she's super confident about it nobody will call her on it style.

Though, she did say she took the mess-up in stride, and found it amusing.

We guess we'll see if they ask her back!!

So good!

New Girl star Zooey Deschanel put her musical talent to good use on Sunday and belted out the The Star Spangled Banner to start Game 4 of the World Series.

She was a good luck charm for the Texas Rangers who won 4-0 against the St. Louis Cardinals to tie the series 2-2.

Check out the video above to see her rendition of the National Anthem. If your ears like what they hear, make sure to check out Zooey's indie band She & Him!

After 21 years - redemption!

During last night's episode of Roseanne's Nuts, the comedienne somehow managed to convince a Little League to let her sing The Star-Spangled Banner, which, you may or may not remember, has been a big no-no since her disastrous performance of the national anthem during a MLB game back in 1990!

But we're delighted to report that she actually did a pretty admirable job!

Ch-ch-check out the performance (above)!

A lovely reminder that it's never too late to make something right!

Well done, gurl!

Oh man.

Despite Christina Aguilera taking some, ahem, 'creative liberties' with the lyrics of The Star Spangled Banner during Sunday's Super Bowl, it seems that her performance STILL wasn't as original as we'd originally thought, and may, in fact, have been paying homage to a Saturday Night Live sketch featuring Maya Rudolph!

Ch-ch-check out the similarities in a mash-up of the two 'interpretations' (above)!

But the question remains: which one did a better job?!

Thoughts??

Atta gurl! No need to let one flub get you down!

Despite her goof while singing The Star Spangled Banner at the Super Bowl, Christina Aguilera has been confirmed as the opening performer at the Grammys this Sunday, alongside Jennifer Hudson and three as of yet unnamed artists from different genres - all in a medley that pays tribute to Aretha Franklin!

Amazing! This year's ceremony keeps getting better and better!

This is going to be absolutely epic!

Glad to see you getting right back on the saddle, bb! We have a feeling that you're going to KILL IT!

Thoughts??
