The Brooklyn Cyclones, a minor league baseball team, want to give her another shot at singing “The Star Spangled Banner” after she messed up one of the lines during the Super Bowl on Sunday.
Aguilera fumbled the line “O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming” and came up with her own verse.
She was widely panned across a multitude of media outlets for the error but a number of stars, including the Black Eye Peas’ Fergie, defended her mistake.
The Brooklyn Cyclones are offering the 30-year-old Staten Island native another chance to sing the song in front of a live audience, General Manager Steve Cohen said on the team’s website.
“We’ve all made mistakes,” said Cohen. “But when most of us make mistakes, it’s not in front of 100 million people watching in every corner of the world. When a player makes a mistake, they usually don’t get a shot at redemption, but with a singer, that’s a different story.”
