More like FurBADo....right!?

Nelly Furtado's rendition of "O Canada," the Canadian National Anthem, at the NBA All Star Game on Sunday night was the worst version of any anthem I have ever heard. Mind you, I have considered myself a Nelly Furtado fan. I think her first album was pretty good, but this was absolutely terrible. She missed so many notes, and it seemed like she was just lost musical on a couple different occasions. At least, Carl Lewis' infamous version of the "Star Spangled Banner" was bad to the point of comedy, and Roseanne's version was comedy(which I did find quite amusing).

Furtado was followed up by Christina Aguilera attempting a creative version of the "Star Spangled Banner," performing with just a drummer's sparse and interesting accompaniment, but Christina tried for some crazy notes at the end of the anthem and just came up a little flat. I respected her for trying to do something interesting and inventive with the anthem, but it seems like she has let everyone saying how she has an amazing voice get to her head a little bit and forgot that even she cannot hit all notes.

Outkast performed "Hey Ya!" and "The Way You Move" as the All Stars were being introduced, and while I really enjoy both of those songs, they have performed them too many times, and performing them for the intros of the players was sorta awkward, even though Andre 3000 was super cute as he came out as a popcorn vendor.

Beyonce's halftime performance was incredibly entertaining. She did a version of Donna Summer's sultry "Love to Love Ya Baby" miraculously without a microphone, yet somehow that didn't harm my enjoyment. She then was graced with the gift of microphone and performed "Crazy in Love." I only wished Jay-Z would've performed with her. I heart Beyonce.
