Country singer Ingrid Andress sang the national anthem at the Major League Baseball Home Run Derby in Arlington, Texas Monday night, and her performance has gone viral for all the wrong reasons, as many have stated it was the worst they’ve ever heard.
“My ears are bleeding. One of the worst national anthem renditions ever,” wrote X user Michael Schwab.
“I thought the internet was exaggerating until i saw this video, oh my god,” another person wrote.
Another social media user wrote, “That Ingrid Andress national anthem might have been the worst thing to happen in America in the last 48 hours #brutal.”
“Is this girl drunk? She makes Roseanne sound like Whitney Houston,” declared Warren Wilhelm.
Well, it turns out, she WAS drunk.

On Tuesday, Andress confessed, posting a statement on social media:
“I’m not gonna bullsh*t y’all, I was drunk last night. I’m checking myself into a facility today to get the help I need. That was not me last night. I apologize to MLB, all the fans, and this country I love so much for that rendition. I’ll let y’all know how rehab is I hear it’s super fun.”
