Ingrid Andress is not the first country singer to struggle with the National Anthem. She's not even the first country singer to draw criticism after performing the National Anthem during MLB's All-Star festivities.

A decade ago, one of country music's biggest stars of the 21st century was caught peeking at his hand for the lyrics to the familiar song. He survived online attacks and went on to become a multi-time Entertainer of the Year.

  • Andress drew criticism after her uneven performance before the MLB's Home Run Derby on Monday (June 15).
  • The "More Hearts Than Mine" singer has not yet commented on the moment.
  • "Wishful Drinking" — a duet with Sam Hunt — is another of her hit songs.
