While I have never sang the National Anthem in front of a Super Bowl crowd, I have sang the National Anthem in front of a large crowd at baseball games, so I understand the nervousness. But, at the same time, she is a professional, grammy nominated singer and I'm not, so I'm not sure I could believe the nervous in front of a crowd bit.

Unfortunately it is for the NFL. I hear what you are saying and respect it. And maybe organizations like the NFL should be more careful selecting who sings the anthem so it is not over the top like that. I still think it was a mistake, and I feel that Christina is paying for it with the bad PR.
