She made Roseanne Bar look like an opera diva

[@nicolegroves6880]

I feel so sorry for this little girl. I can't imagine how badly she is probably being mocked at school, especially considering how full grown adults are responding to this. This girl's parents are idiots of the highest freaking order for allowing her to go on national television and make a complete fool out of herself. She is going to have such a rough time, poor baby.

[@pamcm1098]

Disrespectful of the flag. Horrendous.

[@samimoring1235]

I've seen A LOT worse from professional athletes.

[@CT-1001]

Are these people supposed to be adults? Dragging a child down like this.... what's awful here is adults. Grow up

[@OutsideTheGlobe]

Well, stop acting as if the world is a meadow. Her parents threw her out for the wolves to devour.

[@StarchildCity21]

The NBA has to be trolling these players, the Fergie anthem, Flavor Flav and now this 😂

[@MsBellasworld]

Wait a second, Flav did an awesome job! I loved his version.

[@matthewgordon3281]

Poor child, let's not roast her too much. I feel like she was not properly prepared by the adults in her life, and why would they make/let her do it acapella? That's a hard song to sing

[@orangeppl]

Give her credit. She accomplished what Fergie failed… freestyle.

[@ShiningAndStarstruck]

She heard whitney houston once and went "i can do that!"

[@woIfson]

dont blame the girl , blame the damn parents for enabling her and letting her sing in a televised show

[@kennetht.6952]

This is going straight to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, with backing vocals by Ice Spice.

[@melodygibson450]

She and Fergie should duet this.

[@JamboreeBlackberry]

@@melodygibson450OH LORD NO

[@kiciacoldspring1621]

Kudos to my Servicemen for holding it together 😂😂😂😂

[@squaredcircle2011]

People need to stop condescending children. There are plenty of 8 year-olds out there - and America has lots of them - who are super talented and work extremely hard and they sound amazing. This girl is delusional and so were the people who put her there. This is just sad. She will have to grow up with this.

[@Leamichellefan2244]

I completely agree with you, but what scares me is there are plenty of people in this very comment section who have no problem blowing smoke up this kids, butt, and getting angry at anybody who speaks the truth.

[@christopherrobinson3290]

🎶…Through the “Pear-roar -less - naaaaht” the way she pronounces “Perilous” is akin to a vocal crime 😢I blame parent/guardian someone is straight lying 🤥

[@TheDrewLaneShow]

find something better to do than pick on us for telling the truth. it was brutal.

[@noemimendoza5340]

I blame the parents for not sending her to school for vocal training, and practicing the national anthem. She’s only 8! With the proper training; she would have been great. There’s potential there.

[@danielleholloway2788]

Fergie and Kinsley should perform national anthem duets.

[@andreewebb671]

The person that booked that kid probably got fired.😂😂😂😂

[@carlosdimas313]

At least she the courage to stand up in front of a large crowd , but wow I am speechless 😶 how this was even allowed on television.

[@seebee-rd2jo]

Ok are we not gonna talk about how sad she must be after ADULTS are making fun of an 8 YEAR OLD??

[@R_Fisk]

Are we not going to talk about the fact that this is the fault of her parents. Even if people weren't saying it, they'd be thinking it. It was horrific and the parents are awful for either not being honest with her or just not caring about her well being knowing this is how she sings.

[@torrencegill5187]

The entire audience is just shocked!

[@davidmcglone409]

I'm glad I seen this. I'm deaf, but I have a Cochlear Implant and I could never figure out what was good and what wasn't good. I definitely know now. She was all over the place. No disrespect to the little girl though.

[@Leamichellefan2244]

I’m blind and hearing it is is awful day. This child should not be singing anything.

[@Leamichellefan2244]

Why did the announcer say please join in the singing of the national anthem when in this case you clearly can’t.

[@calb1231]

Do you think it’s at all possible that someone picked her because they are against playing the National Anthem so they make a joke out of it….?

[@tirevelation777]

She's only 8 so who cares, if she was 18 singing like that then that's another story

[@chriscirino5779]

At least she wasn't kneeling

[@jaejae3669]

This is why its important to not lie to your kids when you say “that was great honey! You did so good!” To not “hurt” their feelings

[@georgiawild4332]

For those of you saying she’s too young to be a narcissist, no she’s not. I once knew someone whose chid came home from school, crying, because no one told her she was pretty that day. She was about 7. This girl is going to have some serious trust issues when she gets older .

[@Ralphbros24]

It’s like listening to a warped record

[@mark19441944]

You guys are being incredibly mean. It’s a kid and it’s the judgement of adults that allowed this to happen.

[@JamboreeBlackberry]

I voice cracked multiple times at a school basketball game whilst doing the anthem (I used to be in the chorus of my school). Yet, I can still do better than this

[@peace_lovemuzic5208]

Poor girl. She's 8. I feel bad for her and her people/her parents should be ashamed for allowing this to continue to happen. It's not her fault. She's probably being forced to do this for 15 minutes of fame and the thing is, it's all people making fun of her. Shame on her dad.

[@sussiesoediman3305]

Spoiled kid !"😢

[@garylcarrier]

This panel of four was far worse with their bufonic laughing and comments than the soloist! Their silly attacks and remarks was extremely immature!

[@justforme115]

She's 8...leave her alone. I fault the parents.

[@Vek_Zythe]

This is a perfect example that proves things like music, movies, and games are NOT subjective. People can like it. But that doesn't make it good.

[@arkyboy14]

You all should be ashamed of yourselves. You're supposed to be adults. She's an 8-year-old child.

[@newnoggin2]

What is wrong with you! This is a form of child abuse and the parents should be called out. This girl will be made fun of forever. Her age doesn't matter when something is wrong people speak up.

[@MKEditsxx]

And on top of all the only audible words are "O say can you see" 😂😂😂

[@iDontCareAtAllllllll]

An 8 year old little girl is NOT a narcissist. If this was a little boy he would not have said that. She is a little child, he parents are totally to blame. To sit online and call a child a lunatic is disgusting.

[@freyaegrey]

She COULD be a good singer if she had training and a realistic and honest adult in her corner.

[@hinklewj]

I'd rather listen to the eight year old and praise her for her courage and ability to hit high notes and give her encouragement over four grown adult bullies making fun of an eight year old who is likely to see your video and these comments along with her friends and family. What a way to spend your time.

[@Teo22athome]

I agree with you. I think it was great when viewed in it’s wholeness - the courage etc. of an 8 year old vs hack Podcasters grasping for content to get a view into their own misery who probably couldn’t sing half as good - they ought to be ashamed of themselves for even posting the hyper-critical dialogue that sounds like they are talking only to hear their own voices. 15.4K subscribers in 10 years of existence -

[@BobAnimate2k9]

I agree! That was probably the worst national anthem performance ever! This girl should never be allowed to sing again

[@christophermaynard1902]
