“I fucked it up” Loomis has issued an apology after a clip of her swearing while performing the US National Anthem went viral. The singer performed ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ during the debate for an independent candidate on Wednesday (October 23). The event was broadcast live on TV, on the radio and online.

In footage of the rendition shared online, Loomis is seen appearing flustered on stage, before getting visibly annoyed after messing up a note. “I fucked it up. I fucked it up.



Can I go back? Can go back, please,” she said after singing the line “and the rocket’s red glare” “You can’t. We’re live,” she was told, before continuing the National Anthem. Now, after the clip went viral, Loomis has taken to social media to apologise for swearing on live television.

“This has been something I’ve been scared of since I was a little girl [...

] I was scared I was gonna fail and then I did, and the world’s seen it.” Later on in the performance, she said that she had the blunder because she “got too nervous” duri.
