Sporting a super-short dress emblazoned with the Statue of Liberty and immediately after holding a moment of silence for the victims of 9/11, Cyndi Lauper is now being widely criticized on twitter for mistakenly botching the lyrics of the National Anthem at the U.S. Open semi-finals Saturday night.“O’er the ramparts, we watched as our flag was still streaming,” Lauper sang, instead of “O’er the ramparts we watch’d were so gallantly streaming.”
Lauper sang “The Star-Spangled Banner” before the women’s semi-final match between Serena Williams andCaroline Wozniacki.
Just as they did after Christina Aguilera botched the same lyrics during the 2011 Super Bowl, Americans who were outraged as they watched and were outraged took to their twitters. (Watch the video below.)
