Ciara Uses Back Up Singers For Shaky US National Anthem Performance at 86th MLB All-Star Game (Video)

Good that she got this gig as it’s good promo for her but having Ciara sing the US national anthem in a stadium is a little too much. Her vocals are decent, she sounds good in studio recordings, and also live when she gets to do somewhat easy songs, but the “The Star-Spangled Banner”? Come on. We all know CiCi’s vocals are too weak for that. And although she kind of pulled something ‘okay’ out of her live performance of the US national anthem yesterday (July 14) at the 86th MLB All-Star Game at the Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati, Ohio, she should have skipped it to avoid all the expected criticizing and kind of giving haters meat to feed on because evidently Ciara’s voice isn’t made for songs and spectacles of this kind.

And who the hell uses back up singers for a performance of the “The Star-Spangled Banner” at a baseball game? I really can’t picture any artist that’s done this in the past. Destiny’s Child had ‘back ups’ but the back ups were themselves as they were three, lol, so they helped each other but that’s it. Proper back up singers, and three of them! I have never seen.

Ciara’s opening line was beyond awful but fortunately she sort of picked it up near the middle. Overall, a very shaky vocal performance and she was dead nervous. Maybe she was cursing her publicist for getting her into this out-of-her-league gig? ha.

Thoughts?
