Iconic 90s band Boyz II Men promised a “pretty sexy” version of the US national anthem at the Las Vegas Grand Prix but the performance has fallen flat for many fans.
Ahead of the second running of the race on the Las Vegas strip, it was announced the trio would sing the Star Spangled Banner at the event, which drew some enthusiasm from fans of the band.
The four-time Grammy award winners, who are known for some of their classic songs including End of the Road and I’ll Make Love to You, came into the event teasing it would be as memorable as their 1998 Super Bowl and 1996 Olympic Closing Ceremony performance.
Unfortunately the rendition belongs more in the realm of anthem fails with social media quickly turned on the performance, claiming it was “flat”, “off-pitch” and “a gimmick”.
Chief editor of GPFans US Chris Deeley said: “Congratulations Boyz II Men for the worst anthem rendition of the season.”
“This Boyz II Men national anthem is horrific,” one fan wrote.
Another commented: “Boyz II Men had some bangers but man …. that anthem was not good lol.”
A third added: “I can’t believe im saying this but Boyz II Men are flat.”
