A Canadian pop star was booed when she failed to remember the words to her own national anthem during a soccer game between Canada and Peru in Montreal on Saturday.
Alessia Cara was chosen to sing “O Canada” in French before the match, but she appeared to fumble and lose her nerve as the song progressed, Express reported Sunday.
Express – Famous popstar booed over national anthem as outraged fans demand ‘passport taken away’
This sums up EXACTLY how Canada is doing right now.
A ‘professional’ singer hired for the Canada vs Peru game in Montreal cannot even remember the words to her own national anthem. A task that school children manage daily is too complex for her.
What an embarrassment. https://t.co/AiyUL6YpT3
