Lady Gaga Performs National Anthem at Biden/Harris Inauguration — Watch
Lady Gaga continued to show her support for President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday, performing “The Star-Spangled Banner” during the duo’s inauguration ceremony in Washington, D.C.
Gaga’s patriotic performance went down at the U.S. Capitol building, where Biden and Harris were to be sworn into their new positions by Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Sonia Sotomayor, respectively.
“Singing our National Anthem for the American People is my honor,” Gaga tweeted less than an hour before performing. “I will sing during a ceremony, a transition, a moment of change—between POTUS 45 and 46. For me, this has great meaning. My intention is to acknowledge our past, be healing for our present, and passionate for a future where we work together lovingly. I will sing to the hearts of all people who live on this land. Respectfully and kindly, Lady Gaga.”
Watch Gaga’s performance below:
Of course, this wasn’t Gaga’s first time performing this song before a crowd of millions; she famously nailed the iconic ballad ahead of Super Bowl 50 in 2016. (Click here to watch.)
And Gaga is just one of the many huge names turning out to welcome Biden back to the White House. Following her performance, Jennifer Lopez took to the podium to sing “This Land Is Your Land,” casually sneaking in a snippet of “Let’s Get Loud” in the process. Garth Brooks also dropped by to perform “Amazing Grace.” (Click here to watch.)

yes
Having a monarch slave sing for the inauguration. What could be more fitting?
None of us in the Commonwealth are slaves, my dear.
lol girl what?
Sure!
This wasn’t an inauguration this was a funeral, the libs celebrating the death of America.
You are a sad divider. 👎
🙄🙄🙄
More kool-aid, dear?
Turn off FOX News.
FOX News is controlled opposition. We should have done that by now.
the death of immorality in the WH
Now…. morality matters?
lol
The trump supporting rioters were the ones trying to end America and its democracy. Your people I suspect.
Any large demographic, such as the one you are deminizing, is inherently rich and diverse…
This is true regardless of any negative stereotypes you subscribe to.
*demonizing
; )
Explain clearly why you think America will die.
You were asked about her performance. Rant in the mirror
We celebrate the BIRTH of America after a 200+ years incubation period.
FRAUDULENT ELECTION BEGETS FRAUDULENT INAUGURATION AND A FRAUDULENT ADMINISTRATION.
WE WILL BE WITHOUT A PRESIDENT TIL 2024
You are out of your mind, lady.
Stop taking to your image in the mirror.
The funeral was before the inauguration. Stop drinking the kool-aid.
The Lady hit it out of the ball park, and that was in front of Libbie’s and left wingers. I know she wanted to say “what the heck am I doing here?” But being a true American she swallowed her guilt, and took a gulp of polluted air, and said to herself, “see you in four years Sir Donald.”
What…. not a single person taking a knee.
Kappy isn’t going to like that.
They were at the White House showing RESPECT FOR OUR COUNTRY AND OUR FLAG!!!!!!
The miltary and all those who turned their backs on the Fraudulent Ones showed respect to America.
Mockingjay pin for the win. Panem today. Panem tomorrow. Panem forever.
Dove of Peace… but I thought of Hunger Games.
NOT MY PRESIDENT!!!!
#resistance…..
So you’re not into democracy then? Cool, cool…
Im sure you were all for saying Not My President when Trump was in office. The hypocrisy of all of this is crazy & sad!
The difference is, Trump was a dangerous, evil lunatic. Biden is a born-leader and a good person.
…and 2 + 2 = EM^2.
I was saying my President is corrupt lying and a threat to democracy
Exactly, I was saying “I’m so sorry that this is our president. The idiot representing America.” I hated Trump, but ultimately, unfortunately, he was the president.
So then, the former chief executive was YOUR President?
Really?
Yes. REALLY.
Anyone who thinks otherwise has been uninformed, misinformed, manipulated or deceived by the dishonest media.
The USA has always been a Representative Republic. Only dummycrats call it a democracy.
Funny, didn’t conservatives tell the liberals 4 years ago against saying “Not my president”? The courts all agree that the election was fair. So unless you aren’t an American citizen, then he is your president.
And if you aren’t an American citizen, then you do you.
how many of your “friends” are under indictment for insurrection?
That’s ok… the last one definitely wasn’t mine.
You win the Internet today for that. X-D
Tony, this is exactly the problem. I didn’t like Trump, but I still realized he was the President. All of this division among Americans is the problem. I hope there is some unity. I have voted for both Democrats and Republicans. This divide is unamerican. I generally vote more for Democrats, but the majority of my friends are Republicans. But, they are sane and don’t support the kind of nonsense that’s been going on. This back and forth has got to stop. No one President is going to ever make everyone happy if everyone thinks they have to get every single thing they want. You should be glad you live in a strong democracy. What happened two weeks ago would have ripped a weaker nation apart. We would literally be living in anarchy. I know some people say they want that. But, they’ve likely never actually lived it. Enough is enough. I respect that you have different opinions than I do. But, what exactly are you resisting against? You live in a free country whose government didn’t collapse. Even those close to Trump have stopped spreading his lies. They admit the election wasn’t stolen. Do you not care about the fact that Trump was trying to steal the election himself by telling a Georgia election official to “find” votes because he is a Republican? There certainly was attempted fraud. But, not from the side you think there was. Trump lied to you. He reveled in lying to you and causing so much hate and division. If anything should make you angry, it should be that.
RESIST!
major bruh moment
It is 9-11 2023 when I post this. This is still true.
Gaga comes through when needed. Womderful
She sounded great. Lovely performance.
Dan,
I agree with you. I hope the media focuses and is just as critical of the Biden Administration as they were with Trump. I am not holding my breath.
The media shouldn’t be as critical of Biden because Biden is a good man and not trying to destroy America. Trump was evil and tried to destroy the country—-THAT is why the media was so critical of him.
What exactly did he do?
Thats your opinion, the Biden agenda will be what will start destroying America with stacking the Supreme Court, Medicare for all and giving illegals full benefits as well as allowing statehood for DC and PR to insure only democrats will dominate. Look out for $3+ gas and high taxes
What a beautiful rendition of the song. Strong is the word that comes to mind. She did an amazing job.
She reminded me in a good way of a combo of Kate Smith singing God Bless America and Ethel Merman.
Gaga delivered a beautiful rendition.
While it wasn’t a terrible rendition, I didn’t care for it. Something felt “off” about her performance. Almost like she was trying too hard or something. I thought her previous performance of it was much better.
.
Moving on to the comments I’m seeing here and elsewhere on the interwebs about her pin it’s clear for the 1,782,062th time that Christians, especially the evangelical variety, really don’t know their book of myths. Or they are doing that thing again where they ignore reality and see what they choose to see.
“And the dove came back to him in the evening, and behold, in her mouth was a freshly plucked olive leaf. So Noah knew that the waters had subsided from the earth.”
.
Although I do appreciate the irony in other people mimicking their outrageous lunacy unfazed by the fact that they are supporting the false claim that 1-20-2021 is the day America and democracy died.
I’m not even a drag queen and I want to wear that dress! Amazing.
Gaga did okay, I was not blown away by it. I actually and surprisingly enjoyed JLO’s singing a bit more.
I thought the opposite. After Gaga’s magnificent performance, JLo’s seemed rather lackluster.
Her voice : Perfect. Her choice of attire: Not so much. Not even close. Not befitting the time of day and the dignity of the occasion. It was a ceremony, not a performance.
JLo: Voice and attire: Consummate class. Nailed it, as always (although could have decreased the diamonds).
Garth: Respectful and humble but blew it with the request to sing along, hard to sing with masks, and difficult for the many people who would rather not have attended.
Please everyone, please just stay safe and try to turn this hard corner.
What a bunch of liberal crap!
You are correct Steve. The dems and their aligned state run media have to go all Hollywood whenever some democrap gets in office.
This coming from someone who supported a guy who got a visit from the MyPillow guy.
.
But I’m sorry, you thought you were actualy making some kind of valid point, so, go on…
Gaga was brilliant. I didn’t think she would, but she was impressive.
Lady Gaga’s rendition of the National Anthem was marvelous! It led to goosebumps. What a talent!
Trump 2024! All you sheeple know dang well, uncle creepy stole the election. Commie Harris has the likeability rating of a used douche nozzle.
Time to come back to reality bud. Too much Fox News, Newsmax and Parler for you.
lady gaga 2024
kamala is so far from a communist are you actually stupid? do u even know the definition of communism? do you even know how to form your own thoughts? do you even have a wife? unless, your gay of course, do you even have a husband? why are u named jeff? jeff is a loser name your a loser
democrats are idiots. within 2 years, y’all gonna be like, “what the heck is happening here??”
No that’s been the PAST 4 yearss
Uhm, no. We’ve been wondering what the heck is happening since 2016. Or, are you saying you were not upset by the attack on the Capital? If that didn’t wake you up to the fact that Trump’s rhetoric was about to rip the country in two, then I don’t think anything will. How people can support such hate and division and and continue to spread such hate and division is beyond me. You do realize you were the ones who coined the term “snowflake” for anyone who disagreed with you, right? You’re the ones who need to take a step back and see what’s been in front of your eyes this whole time. You literally are a group of adults who followed in your leaders footsteps of creating and spreading insults. If you really enjoy hate and spreading hate that much, then you need to look within yourself and make some changes. We don’t have to agree to be civil.
It is really a bizarre universe when a trump supporter has the temerity to call Democrats idiots.
Brought me to tears!
It was beautifully done bringing tears to my eyes. She looked beautiful and gracious.
Then why does biden want to rejoin the Iran deal and aid terrorists and support the Palestinian terrorists? biden is a failed politician who did nothing for this country for 50 year but make himself rich. Oh, but he tells you a couple lies and you fawn all over him. It’s your loss! Only 1,460 days until this nightmare is over!!
For the love of all that is holy. “Oh, but he tells you a couple lies and you fawn all over him.” SERIOUSLY! You’ve been lied to for FOUR YEARS! See, the difference is that we aren’t fawning over Biden. Some of you Trump supporters literally worshipped the man like he was the second coming of Christ himself. We don’t fawn. We support but still are able to see when something is wrong. Trump succeeded in his attempt to gaslight a large portion of the country. It was terrifying to watch.
Gaga did a much better job with the anthem in Super Bowl 50. Just seemed she was out on timing with the military band. I wish these celebs who have a great voice would just sing the anthem without all the flourishes…some style flourishes are OK but not when you lose the timing with the band. Whitney Houston RIP
Beautiful and powerful- made me cry. She sang all that we’re feeling- Thank you for your greatness, Lady Gaga
