Sadly, this was truly important to her from what I've read when it was announced she would be singing the anthem. It's hard to imagine that nerves got the best of her, but they obviously did. This wasn't Roseanne Barr's deliberate butchery of a beautiful song. This was a human making a mistake. It wasn't fun to watch or hear but I think it was a lot more painful for her than it was for anyone else.
