Demi Lovato may have predicted that she’d be singing the national anthem at a Super Bowl someday, but did she know she would knock it out of the park?
That’s just what the “Sorry Not Sorry” singer did as she stepped up to the mic to kick off Super Bowl LIV featuring the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. Decked out in an elegant white pantsuit, Demi used her soaring vocals to honor the country with it’s anthem. While many artists take liberties with their anthem performances, Demi just let her powerhouse vocals take us to new heights. The song ended in a rousing ovation and cheers from the mixed football crowd.
