Madeline Powell Anthem

[@chadwpalm]

@weymarie It's a very high end microphone that doesn't pick up background noise. Notice you don't hear the echo of her voice in the stadium either? And you can barely here the fireworks. You can vaguely here the crowd through the announcer's mic at the very end if you turn it up loud enough.

She was eight in the "original NA vid" when Tatum was a part of the group. She's ten now and an integral part of the four Cactus Cuties that remain..

[@cruisingalong]

Good control of your vocals Madeline---enjoyed your singing the anthem very much. Thank YOu

[@claraschinzel]

[@dmcewen772]

Beautiful Voice

[@rarefiction]

no words would ever become half as big as what is needed to describe her voice. it is so fantastic. i'm freezing my a*s of, at her high notes.

[@Dogsoldier22]

Good god! so young and so good. Cant wait to see how far she will go.

[@ChibySmiley]

She's good. I'm speechless!!! O_o No words can express my feelings to Madeline Powell! AMAZING!

[@Gredran]

Amazing... just... amazing

[@jon1323]

yea shes really good bu when they are all together its amazing. hands down the cactus cuties have the best rendition of the national anthem.

[@sarasmiles2493]

I would be nervous singing that song in front of tons of people, but I can't imagine singing it with two cameras only a few feet away from my face! ~pepper

[@FakeJan]

Applause!! Applause! Madeline did a wonderful job singing our National Anthem. She was right on key and everything. And to think she is ONLY 8 yrs old. She hit the high note perfectly! ::)) Good job!

[@affluence8]

Wonderful

[@illbethereforyou]

Well, she's used to doing it as a group, and has done it so many times, maybe she accidently ended it the way she normally does. it happens - especially when you're nervous..

[@americangirlmusician]

I know right? I'd get sooo creeped out!!

[@kisskiss693]

Oh my word! This girl is amazing! her voice is beautiful! Good job girly!

[@countrygal1995]

she's amazing! Go Madeline!!!!

[@asafapple]

Joy.

[@xoOJDxo1994]

@MsActress101 thanxx

[@bduboftexas]

8 yrs.

[@ashleync29]

She looks and sounds so different here!!!

[@amberwelborn14]

amazing

[@QBsezCisLovall]

Madeline was good here back in 2007, but as was said by others, you need to listen to her today with the other members of the Cactus Cuties, they are fantastic. Also listen to how wonderful her voice is in her "O' Holy Night", "Defying Gravity", and many other videos. She just keeps getting better and better, if that is possible. Check out Bullhead003, CactusCutiesBackstge, or CactusCutiesUK for their videos. You will glad you did.

[@4FabBEATLES]

some people will always be jealous and hate the world-but with beautiful singing and sweet, well-behaved, innocent girls like the Cactus Cuties, who cares?

[@cindeemorgan]

God has given you a beautiful voice! God bless!

[@JessieJay13]

she's sooooo good it's depressing!!! but she was a little flat at the very end, and sometime in the middle that i can't seem to find again *puzzled look* but she's still amazing and i applaud her greatly for having the courage to get up and sing in front of so many people a cappella and alone!! ^_^

[@toastednk]

She can and should bypass the circus that is American Idol.

[@Trivmet]

American Idol is not the best place to be discovered anymore.

[@LeahC554]
