Country artist Ingrid Andress has apologized for her rocky performance of the National Anthem last night at MLB’s annual Home Run Derby, revealing she “was drunk” and is checking herself into rehab.

“I’m not gonna bullshit y’all, I was drunk last night,” she shared across all of her social media accounts. “I’m checking myself into a facility today to get the help I need. That was not me last night. I apologize to MLB, all the fans, and this country I love so much for that rendition. I’ll let y’all know how rehab is. I hear it’s super fun.” She signed the post “xo, Ingrid.”

Andress received harsh criticism for her performance, her voice wavering almost immediately, with some comparing it to Fergie’s anthem performance during the 2018 NBA All-Star Game.
