Roseanne Barr’s Rendition of ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’
Re “The Night Roseanne Sang at the Grand Old Game,” Jack Mathews’ July 28 article on Roseanne Barr singing the national anthem:
Mathews asks, “Did (Barr) think Americans are so smitten with her lovable slob image that they’d enjoy the national anthem scratched on a blackboard?” Several years ago when Robert Goulet forgot the words of “The Star-Spangled Banner,” a few people gasped--and life went on.
If Barr were a male comic, the audience would have cheered! Let’s get off the double standard!
