...who I am a big fan of, is getting a lot of flak on her sites as well. She doesn't deserve it. She has defended her transgender sister, LGBT rights and has been attacked verbally and online about it in the past. She has sung for Obama two times. I don't have a problem with her singing the National Anthem, which is what she will be doing. It's sung every 4th of July regardless of who is the president. The gig with Bocelli is still up in the air as it is not confirmed yet that he will be participating. She will probably be gone before the swearing in starts as she has a concert the next day and has to catch a plane.
