Fergie has bequeathed her title to Ingrid Andress.

The Black Eyed Peas singer took to the comments section of Complex’s post on Andress’ catastrophic rendition of the National Anthem and left a crown emoji.

On Monday night, Andress sang “The Star Spangled Banner” at the MLB Home Run Derby in Arlington, Texas, and was later criticized for being extremely off-key and failing to control her pitch.

Per the tweet from Complex’s post, many compared Andress’ performance to Fergie’s at the 2018 NBA All-Star game, which also saw her singing off-key.

Andress took to her Instagram on Tuesday to reveal that she was drunk during her performance and is seeking help.

“I’m not gonna bullshit y’all, I was drunk last night,” she wrote on social media. “I’m checking myself into a facility today to get the help I need. That was not me last night. I apologize to MLB, all the fans, and this country I love so much for that rendition. I’ll let y’all know how rehab is I hear it’s super fun.”
