Viral Indie singer, Loomis apologizes, begs for forgiveness after botching national anthem: ‘Lesson learned’

Singer begs for forgiveness after viral National Anthem botch.

“And I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to mess up the National Anthem, and I wanted to thank you guys for giving me a chance and believing in me.”

Indie singer Loomis, who viral after butchering the national anthem during the live telecast of a third-party presidential debate, issued an apology begging for forgiveness.

Singer Loomis has issued an apology after delivering a botched performance of the national anthem during a live C-SPAN broadcast in Los Angeles on Wednesday (October 23).

The Indie performer took to the stage at the Free & Equal Presidential Debate between three third-party presidential nominees on Wednesday to sing “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

However, her voice cracked mid-anthem — prompting her to stop and request to start over, only to be told that the broadcast was live and that she had to continue.

“I f–ked it up, I f–ked it up, can I go back please?” the singer pleaded.

The singer — the daughter of a veteran — on Saturday addressed “all the craziness” that’s taken place since her botched rendition went viral.

Loomis added that she had concerns about singing the anthem live.

“I was always scared I was going to fail, and then I did, and the world’s seen it,” she said. “So I just wanted anybody out there who’s seen, that you can change anything negative into something positive.”

“I was a little late there and didn’t have a clear cue, which left me flustered when we went live,” she captioned the post.

“I know it wasn’t my best, and I’m truly sorry if it didn’t hit the mark. I take full responsibility on my part and ask that you don’t use this incident to reflect on the artist I am and trying to be.”

“I’m so grateful for the opportunity and all the love and support I’ve received. I’m taking this as a lesson learned, and I can’t wait to come back even stronger,” she added.
