AGREED!!!!
every time i watch this i try my HARDEST to control myself but somehow i always end up on the floor
I wpuld have burst out laughing

Stephen Curry was trying so hard not to laugh but when the crowd started laughing so did he 😂😂😂
Fergie: “I’m the worst.”
Ingrid Andress: “Hold my beer.”
Loomis: “Hold my f**king beer.”
😂
Lmaoooo 😭😭😭 honestly fergie’s singing was the worst out of all, but loomis did the most hilarious thing by dropping those random ad libs “I got so nervous” after being told it is INDEED live 🫠
The comment I was looking for. Fergie has finally been redeemed.
Chaka? Roseanne?
😂😂😂
@socal3154 but she did that to be a troll....
I wish I had this level of confidence. I mean, she committed; girl was feelin' herself the whole way through
I wish I had Stalin's level of confidence. I mean, he committed; Man was feelin' himself the whole way through.
I was with a girl one night.I thought I was kidding it. Sadly enough same result. Laughter and pity.
I’m your 1,000th like
That girl (Fergie) must have been feelin' herself being pretty drunk! What other explanation could there be?
“Does that star spangled, bann - oo - woh - woh - we - wea - wea. Wea”

Ok but the dudes holding the flags behind her deserve some sort of award for keeping a straight face the whole time
I bet they’re smiling but they’re covering it with the flags 😂
They probably have earplugs or something
They were trained like that but they still deserve the award lol
True
@@azureazlon3947 lol, the stage manager be like: Ok, No matter how loud the cat screeches, keep a straight face, got it?
I came back from 2024…. This cannot be forgotten 😂
Currie kept his game face lol
The "Let's play some basketball!" Was the nail in the coffin
I think that 1:24 was the nail in the coffin, the " let's play some basketball!" was the part that buried it💀
what part would 1:35 be?
@pancakesand syrup oh
I say it everytime after I hear the anthem now.
That's when my little said, "Bruh...who's hot mom is this?" and we just died. Had everyone on floor.😂😂😂😂😂
Simon Cowell: "That's a no from me, sweetheart."

I just want to acknowledge and thank the people behind the cameras who made sure to film the confused player's faces and also the great shots of them laughing. We salute you! 🎥🇺🇸🪖🏀🏆
Yes 😂😂
Yes!!😂🤪
lol..good one ..lol
Everytime I'm happy i come back to this video and ruin my day.
😂😂
the players be playing a try not to laugh challenge
It was so long and painful, it looked like Draymond was about to fall asleep
Lol look at cury
And james
2k like
I like that Chen photo lol
All of the players tried to keep a serious face because they knew that they would be on camera. But I bet they were trying so hard to not laugh.
I was waiting for steph curry to crack
They were rather dissapointed
Yes 😂😂😂 ole boy was catching flies then smiled real big trying not to die from laughter! 😂😂
There’s a video of their reactions during the anthem.
Lion Pride god doesnt exist can u just shut up
I just can’t imagine the rehearsal for this and someone being like YES, this is good
Michelle Jara😂😭😭
Well, it was reported that Fergie had two versions, the one she was supposed to sing at the All Star game and a strip club version-you know-for the strip club. 🙄 But the band director’s wife switched the sheet music in his briefcase as a practical joke before he headed out to the game that day.
And the rest is history.
YES !!! She had to preform this in front of people who tf told her it was ok !!! 😂
good one
😫😫🤣🤣🤣
That felt longer than 2 minutes and 19 seconds.
This is the coldest comment here 🤣🤣👏👏
I miss my cat, this is the sound she used to make when she’s hungry.
😹😹
I’m dead
😂😂😂
You win with this comment. Lmao.
Sikat Sikatan OMG
Her manager: "You should re-imagine it. Make it your own. Don't even think of the historical context or the meaning of the words. And make it sexy. Really go for it."
Lmaoooooo
HAHAHAHA
YES!!!!
That's perfect! Lol
☠️
Bless her, her face at the end is like "nailed it 😌"
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

LMBO!!!!! YALL ARE SO FUNNY! OH MY GOD! IM CRYING OVER THESE COMMENTS!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
LET’S PLAY SOME BASKETBALL
😂😂😂😂 Who else came here after Loomis? ---->
Me bro this is good by comparison
Lmao😊
@DARKANASE this was seriously cringy
Meeeeeeeee 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭
This is faaar better than Loomis 😂
She was trying to sound like amy winehouse like a blues type vibe but this wasn't the time or the song to practice this
Right 😂😂😂😂😂😂🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
Shamieka Pryor 😭😭😭
@Jalen Stephensyeah
Actually Billie Holiday with a little of Ella Fitzgerald because those are the top tiers that Amy actually studied along with other great Jazz and Blues singers ⛓️
That's exactly what I got from it
The players were probably telling themselves like:
Don't you dare laugh, not here not now
Right, I would've have bursted out with laughter when the camera focused on me
Draymond like that kid that always got you in trouble in school for making jokes under his breath and then when you laugh the teacher send you to detention. For that reason I NEVER get tired of watching this when I need to laugh.
Exacty 😂😂
I lose it when she says “bayaynerer yeh het wayyy-haayave”
🤣🤣🤣
minute?
@@real_shad0w480 it’s at 1:32
i cringed so hard at that moment that i literally stopped smiling
Same 😂
And she wasn't even drunk. That was on purpose! lol.
I have an expert with me right now, and he says she was drunk during this performance. Stop spreading misinformation
@@America-oe3djStop spreading misinformation that you have “an expert” over a RUclips comment. Be so for real
I don't know what's funnier, the players trying not to laugh, her singing or her saying "let's play some basketball" at the end.
How about all of the above 🤣🤣🤣
the players are like ‘when will this be over’
Dude the way she sang it is not even that bad. It had her touch to it. I kinda liked it even though some parts she stretched too much
How is the last one funny
For me it's how the video isn't in sync with her voice. But it may be just my phone
Why do we keep coming back to this😭
I come back because for me, personally, this is high tier on the “so bad it’s good” lol
Me here again every month
To laugh...This cures depression
FRL 😭😭
@@Howlingburd19 lmaoo I come here for a good laugh from time to time
"Let's play some BASKETBALL!"
*Silently cries in corner*
Hawaii Pitbull I busted out laughing when I read your comment 😂😂😂😂
@@yogagirl411 glad to hear 😆
yogagirl411 literally the same.
Lol
Lmmfao
Ingrid made her version look so much better HAHAHA
😂
The way she smiled in the end and feeling herself but then went on to completely destroy the last note 01:55
I’ll never understand why she chose to sing this in a style that sounds like a crusty old lounge singer trying to impersonate Jessica Rabbit.
😂
You my friend.... summed that up perfectly. 😂 bravo
Oh my god pls stop 😂😂😂😂😂😂💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
R/rareinsults
This comment killed me
It's like she wanted it to be a jazzy, sexy, smoky rendition and didn't the tell the band. Or the event staff. Or her manager. Or literally anyone else who might have said "um maybe that's a bad idea."
Pretty sure not ONE person alive thinks the National Anthem would sound good in a jazzy, smoky way.
Fergie: “Hold my beer”...
Most videos are still active i looked up gangdam style that shi is still getting like 1000 comments a day
@@Vanasse1 Honestly if someone wanted to give it a shot as a stylized rendition and they did it well, I'm down. But this was just so bad and didn't work at all. Also I don't think this was the right venue for such a thing
@@Kiterpuss Exactly. If she was actually singing IN a jazz club or something... yeah, ok, take your liberties for the 50 or so people sitting in the club. But at a national basketball game? Uh. No!
I don't think that a national anthem makes for good Jazz music, but is does make for a great joke.
I come back to this video everytime I need a good laugh
What was she thinking 😂
Her confidence really makes this whole thing funnier. Good for her
the backhandedness of this comment 😭
Cockiness 🤣🤣
I was actually unpleasantly surprised because she normally is an amazing singer. Wth?!? Who thought this would be a good idea and approved it? Wow.
@@miaknig3130
Some people need to be pegged down in their life to remind them that they’re not everything they try to be. Clearly fergie was trying to impersonate the... ow she just screamed that hurt my ears
I think the "Good for her" part made the whole post even funnier😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Imagine in that moment she thought
“Man im killing this”
Lol I was thinking that
She’s killing alright, killing peoples ears 😂
@@greeneyedgirlyy 😂😂😂😂😂
Bruh
it's a literal killing for sure.
The cameraman knew what he was doing with them shots at the players😂😭
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He understood the assignment 😂😂
@@opabsher 🤣
I was looking for a this comment 😂😂😂 lebron struggling to keep a straight face
@@opabsher 😭
1:41 this is the part where the crowd usually cheers...instead they laughed
Whenever I’m having a bad day I always find myself back here
honestly same 😂
this comment was at 606 but I liked it and brought it to 607 someone please bring this to 666 and then dont like.
Me too.
Lol
and get an even worse day
She somehow managed to make a one syllable word become five syllables
💀
That’s what 99% of singers so with the national anthem to try and make it sound original.
😭😭😭😭😭💀
@@some_metalhead no one except Roseann sings it this bad.
🤣🤣🤣
The best part was all the players trying not to laugh 😂😂 GOLD
Lulu Harshie Trying? Towards the end they were busting out laughing
FSE 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
is it bad that i have this in my playlist
Yq
Facts
I don't understand why people don't like this and say she can't sing... 😢 Her voice control it's incredible! 😮❤
I don't see how it's so bad. If you want someone who is famous to sing the national anthem, you should expect to hear their style.
I agree the singing wasn’t bad just didn’t fit the style of the song. And I though she may have messed the words up but I don’t listen to the song enough
No one:
That one girl in elementary who thought she could sing:
😂
DEAD 💀💀💀💀
Omg this makes so much sense
💀💀💀
why was i that girl
The pause in the middle when everyone laughs PLEASE she looks so proud shsjndbdjdh
They were wrong for zooming in on the players face 😂😂
Frr
Draymond's mug
They knew what they was doing 🤣
For real tho
😂😂yes
If you’re here after loomis ,to let fergie know she’s good hit that like button
I need a Netflix confessional-style documentary starring every single person who was in the room that day
Who does Fergie have to ear fvck to make this happen?!
This is a great documentary idea though..
They should start with Draymond Green cos I always lose it when he comes on 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Starting with blue and beyonce
NBA: “just sing the national anthem at this next game, ok?”
Fergie: *ya like jazz?*
No...that joke wasnt it babygurl..
Mood why
@@HSdirectioner5 cause it wasnt funny.
Mood because humor is objective, right?
@@adventuresofcats7857 Stfu.
It’s a tradition to watch this every now and then…
💀
Even here in the UK!🤣
YESSS!!!! 😂😂😂 I just HAVE to watch this every now and then to be able to keep going 🤣🤣🤣
True. In Australia too. I thought Billy Idol sung a bad one one, years ago at half time during our NRL grand final. But she massacred it.
I come back and listen to it at least once a year. No one has topped this rendition since..
Yes and I'm also not even American 😂
if Ingrid was everywhere, this would be an opera performance :D
1:49 Jimmy Kimmel’s like: I know what I’m talking about on the next night show
Yep
Oof
Lol
@Jahyah Alcindor i think she thought people were cheering for her
Are you high I was just thinking the same thing
I think Van Gogh was onto something when he cut his ear off.
pencilskipschips underrated comment haha
Lmao you obviously have a good sense of humor
He actually only cut of a very tiny part at the very bottom, so it wouldn’t have affected his hearing.
JD Bond yo way to spoil a joke😂
Israel B yes but because of that reason it wasn’t very well thought out. It was a good joke though.
Mad props to the soldiers holding the flags behind her for keeping a straight face
Matt
It's their job to keep a straight face.
Matt I was dying. That was worse than Roseann
WolfGang_forlife Beware You act like everyone can do their job properly...or like it wouldn’t be 100% feasible to laugh at this garbage performance
Matt mad props for you for being another moron bringing back the Fergie crisis that ended 4 months ago.
Well trained soldiers doing their job. No surprise there.
Its the "OOOOOOO SAY DOES THAT STAR SPANGLE" @ 1:23 For me, 😂😂
When she said “mmbraaaaAaAaaaaAAAaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVvvVVvvvvVVVVeeeEeeeeEeEEeeaeE”
I felt that
Skylie Watson omg 😂🤣🤣😂💀
Skylie Watson that’s too short
she went, 📉📈📉 I felt that

This is the funniest comment I have ever read.
The WAY everybody tried to keep it together SENDS ME😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dude the way she sang it is not even that bad. It had her touch to it. I kinda liked it even though some parts she stretched too much
@@raymondqiu8202 She was doing too much it was awful and hilarious 😂
unpopular opinion: it was still a good performance somthin new for a change
@@Aerochalklate just Bc something is different doesn’t mean it’s good
@@raymondqiu8202 it's literally an anthem, not some night club singing contest
Lol, Stephen Curry was trying so hard not to laugh but he couldn’t hold it in.
same wit draymond bc he broke first then everyone after
racingstripes103 hahah yeah
It's just because Green laughed first :)
Chance just didn’t give af 😂 he was dying from the beginning
IRL try not to laugh challenge.
“tHe BoMbS bUrSTANG…”
I’m here after the 2024 home run derby national anthem and Fergie now sounds like an angel
Lmao
Trueee
😂😂😂😂
No one doubted Fergie could hit all the notes, she was just making super weird choices. Which almost makes it worse lol cause who asked her to do this
True
No one:
Fergie: I'm about to end my whole career
Syafiq Adli she already ended it like around 2015 I think
I mean that's already happened when she left The Black Eyed Peas so
True dat. I like Fergie's other music, though.
@@rawnuhld True. That's when her decline started. This performance just put the nail in the coffin.
Best comment I’ve ever read😂
the fact that she kept her ig comments disabled for a whole month after this
LMAOOOO
Shiiiettt I would to if I were her lmfao
Rightfully so.
wait really? 😭
@@melodys9939 yes she was getting so much hate shdjhsd
Should have used Fergie for the closing ceremony at the Olympics 2024 😍

This is what happens when your so popular that nobody dares critique you.
Have you seen this comment section?
@@clayboi6939 yeah I came here to laugh from the comments I don't think anyone came here to admire her voice that's for sure! 😂😁
Jannat L 😅😅😅 you must be lost if you came here to admire her voice I remember when she played the song I began laughing and I was like who told her this is a good idea
@@clayboi6939 I think that person meant the audience,
no one shouted "booooo" or anything, but personally I think no one shouted because of the respect to the anthem.
@@rickross80 ya I bet you're right. Would not end good for a fellow who boo'd the national anthem.
I come back here whenever I need a laugh it's dec 2024 😂😂😂
When she said
*Oh, SAyhhh can YOU sEeEeeee bAY thah dawn-zer-li-light*

The whole song hits you like a train. At full speed. Twice.

Always remember in an embarrassing situation: You could've been Fergie singing the national anthem 🤣
If she survived this, you can survive anything
Let's talk bout it.. spill the motherfucking tea
Who else is here after watching loomis performance? 😅
I love that she listened to the National Anthem and thought "It needs to be more sultry."
This is the perfect comment
"happy birthday Mr President" sounding self

Props to the basketball players for mostly keeping a straight face. Idk how they did it.😂
Never seen kd smile till today

She shouted “let’s play some basketball”thinking she had just had the best performance ever
