Ingrid Andress dethrones Fergie for the worst national anthem ever. If you don’t know who Ingrid Andress is, you’re about to. And it is all because of last night’s MLB Home Run Derby. Thanks to her, we now have what will go down in history as one of if not the worst rendition of the national anthem ever.

Ingrid Andress sings the national anthem at the Home Run Derby

Last night’s home run derby did not disappoint. Teoscar Hernandez of the Los Angeles Dodgers took home the title. He actually became the first Lost Angeles Dodger ever to take home the title of derby champion. But it’s what took place before the competition that has everyone talking today. Ingrid Andress is a country singer who was born in Michigan and is 32 years old. She’s been nominated for 4 Grammy awards. Before last night, many hadn’t heard of her.

We’ll just let you listen to it for yourself.
