Watch: Singer belts out national anthem off-key during live presidential debate — then asks to redo it

Loomis fluffed a high note during the third-party candidates debate

A singer asked if she could re-do the national anthem during a presidential debate that was being televised live after fluffing a high note.
Loomis performed The Star Spangled Banner at the Free & Equal Elections Foundation presidential debate, featuring third party candidates Chase Oliver from the Libertarian Party, Jill Stein of the Greens and Randall Terry of the Constitution Party.
After belting out the first few lines, the artist wavered over the high note on the lyric “and the rockets’ red glare”.
In footage from the debate the singer can be seen quickly blurting out “I f—-d that up, I f—-d that up. Can I go back? Can I go back, please?”
A voice from off-stage can be heard informing her: “We’re live.”
She then attempts to struggle through a few more lyrics before blurting out again: “I got too nervous.”
The artist struggles through to the end, and her performance is met with a smattering of applause.
She later told TMZ that she had only had one day to practise before the Oct 24 debate, adding: “I really do sing. I’m a good singer.”
