Trump's inauguration was almost disrupted by a singer's embarrassment: Carrie Underwood causes drama after performance

The inauguration of the 47th President of the United States, Donald Trump, on January 20 was not without its troubles. The official ceremony was almost disrupted when country singer Carrie Underwood was unable to perform the patriotic song America the Beautiful due to technical problems.

When the 41-year-old artist appeared in front of the audience to sing the track, the necessary music was heard for only a few seconds, after which it quickly faded away. According to The Hollywood Reporter, to remedy the situation, the star decided to perform a cappella accompanied by the US Armed Forces Choir.

After a few minutes' pause, Carrie Underwood addressed the audience with the words: "If you know the words, help me." After that, the crowd joined in to sing America the Beautiful, including the 46th President of the United States, Joe Biden, and stateswoman Kamala Harris.

However, this incident caused Carrie Underwood to be dissatisfied. As a source close to the artist told the Daily Mail, she felt that she did not receive "enough respect." The fact is that when Beyoncé or Lady Gaga performed at presidential inaugurations, small stages or special platforms were created for them, while the country singer sang in the middle of the room in the middle of the public.

"Kerry was unhappy with her performance at the event, primarily because of the limited space she was given. She was quite cramped and uncomfortable," the insider explained, "She was nervous throughout the performance and felt she did not receive the level of respect and admiration that previous performers like Beyoncé and Lady Gaga had."

According to another source, although the celebrity's performance was far from perfect as she had imagined, the performer was still able to accept it. The insider added that Carrie Underwood is proud of herself because she "managed to save the event from a complete disaster."
