Fergie has officially stolen the title of the most controversial national anthem performance from sitcom queen Roseanne Barr.

On Sunday night, A-list celebrities sat courtside at the annual NBA All-Star game, which kicked off with a unique performance by Fergie.

“Who saw Fergie’s national anthem performance at the NBA All-Star Game?”

The "Roseanne" star explained what happened during her awkward performance in a 2015 interview with The Washington Post. »
