Christina Aguilera doesn’t know the words to National Anthem she sang at the Super Bowl because she trusted lyrics found on Wikipedia

If somebody is gonna sing the National Anthem at the Super Bowl, you’d think they’d be better prepared than relying on Wikipedia, a favored site of Liberals.

The Daily Mail reports that Christina Aguilera made an astonishing gaffe by botching the lyrics to the American National Anthem as she kicked off the Super Bowl on Sunday night.

The 30-year-old singer performed a throaty rendition of The Star-Spangled Banner to open the NFL championship - but sang incorrect lyrics that matched an error from Wikipedia.

What she should have sung in the middle of the song was: 'Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming.'

But what she sang instead, as over 100 million people watched, was 'Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight, What so proudly we watched at the twilight's last gleaming.'

That error matches one that used to exist on the Wikipedia entry for the Star Spangled Banner Lyrics.
