Willow Avalon did not attract rave reviews after her rendition of the national anthem on Sunday.
The country singer did the honors ahead of the Bears’ win over the Jaguars in London on the day but apparently did not do a great job as social media ripped her to shreds.
The NFL is expanding its presence outside the United States, and commissioner Roger Goodell has revealed that an overseas Super Bowl could become a reality in the future.
“We’ve always traditionally tried to play a Super Bowl in an NFL city — that was always sort of a reward for the cities that have NFL franchises,” he said on Saturday. “But things change. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if that happens one day.”
Fans are obviously against this, and what they considered a butchering of “The Star-Spangled Banner” certainly hasn’t helped.You can check it out in the video below:

Fans were not at all impressed with Willow Avalon’s rendition of the American national anthem.
“Goosebumps????” someone asked.
“This made me want to puke,” someone else said.
“Goosebumps because it was so awful. She should never be allowed to sing the US National Anthem again,” a fan suggested.
“Idk who Willow Avalon is, But that was one of the worst renditions of the National Anthem ever… That sounded like every overweight Auntie from Alabama, after thanksgiving dinner,” a user wrote.
“We need to go to war with England for this atrocious performance of the national anthem, what tf did I just listen to,” someone joked.
“This is the single worst national anthem I’ve ever heard. Willow Avalon, whoever that is. Dear lord,” another fan wrote.
“Willow Avalon just sang the National Anthem. Never heard of her before and hope I never hear her sing again. Woof, nobody told her you can’t autotune a live performance,” a user added.
As for the game, the Bears improved to 4-2 in a 35-16 victory, with No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams throwing for 226 yards, four touchdowns, and an INT.
