Super Bowl XLVI: Kelly Clarkson Sings the National Anthem—How'd She Do?

American Idol winner will make a guest appearance on NBC's The Voice

America's first idol sings America's song at the biggest sporting event in the world. How fitting!

American Idol and two-time Grammy winner Kelly Clarkson took to the field at Super Bowl XLVI to tackle the National Anthem following Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert's performance of "America the Beautiful."

So how'd she do?

Clarkson kept it simple in almost every respect, from her vocals to her outfit. The singer's rendition of the national anthem, backed by a children's choir, featured no forgotten words and no excessive vocalizing.

Beyond that, the most dramatic part of her performance was the debut of Clarkson's new blunt bangs. You like?
