The Star Spangled Banner isn't a test singers can ace but rather a course they either pass or fail. It's tough with high and low notes, not easy to perform, often leading to public scrutiny, especially in high-profile events.
The surest way to fail singing the National Anthem is to get overly ambitious and lose vocal control. While there are various ways to falter, most have learned not to trivialize it after incidents like Roseanne Barr's joke.
Ingrid Andress's viral Star Spangled Banner performance at the Home Run Derby showcased her misaligned vocal style for the anthem. Her attempt lacked subtlety and control, veering off pitch and overly stylized, missing the mark.
