Ingrid Andress talks about the making of Lady Like
Ingrid Andress, the country music star who sang the national anthem before the MLB Home Run Derby, talks about the making of Lady Like.
After her performance of the national anthem at the MLB Home Run Derby went viral for all the wrong reasons last year, Ingrid Andress is back to try it again.
The 33-year-old singer returned to perform "The Star-Spangled Banner" during a recent Colorado Avalanche hockey game, as she shared in an Instagram clip posted on Friday. "We're back baby," she captioned the video.
Andress also dropped a new single on Monday titled "Footprints." In an Instagram post about the new song, she reflected on how she was taught "that 'failure' was not an option" growing up.
"As I've gotten older and experienced more life, I think the most human thing on earth is failing," she said. "It's getting kicked off, feeling the sting of it, but getting back on the same damn horse anyway. The sister, daughter, and human I want to be is resilient. Without the mistakes in my life, I would not be the person I am today, and I sure as hell wouldn't have the stories to pass on about my journey. We have to talk about our mistakes in order for our success to make sense."
Ingrid Andress says she was 'drunk' during national anthem performance, will check into rehab
"Footprints" is a "reminder to all the people I love the most, and also to myself, that I'm out here trying my best at this 'life' thing, and if there's any helpful guidance anyone can take from it, it's all worth it," she added. The track includes the lyrics, "Through the years, I'd make mistakes so you wouldn't have to make 'em. / And I took chances every day so you'd know when to take 'em."
Ingrid Andress national anthem video
In July, the Grammy nominee went viral as footage of her delivering what critics dubbed the "worst national anthem performance of all time" at the MLB Home Run Derby spread on social media.

In a statement the following day, Andress admitted she was "drunk last night" and would be "checking myself into a facility" to get help. "That was not me last night," she said. "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."
Andress went dark on Instagram and X between that statement and her Friday post, where she shared the clip of herself performing at the Colorado Avalanche game. The video ended with the singer celebrating backstage as the person filming told her that she "sounded great."
But reactions to the latest performance were mixed on Instagram, with one comment saying she "rocked it," while another said that this time was "just as bad."

Justin Baldoni's Former "Man Enough" Podcast Co-Host, Liz Plank, Reacted To His Lawsuit Being Dismissed
Justin Baldoni's Man Enough podcast co-host Liz Plank reacted to his lawsuit against Blake Lively being dismissed. The podcast, which "explores what it means to be a man today," began in 2021, with its most recent episode posted in October of last year. The name echoes Justin's book and viral 2017 TED Talk, "Why I'm done trying to be 'man enough.'"

We all deserve better, and I know that together, we can create it. I will have more to share soon as I continue to process everything that has happened. In the meantime, I will continue to support everyone who calls out injustice and holds the people standing in their way accountable." Yesterday, a judge dismissed Justin's countersuit against Blake, which notably included claims of defamation. Shortly beforehand, Liz had asked people on Instagram to "send us your boy problems" for an upcoming episode of her new podcast, Boy Problems. In response to the lawsuit being dismissed, Justin's lawyer said, "Ms. Lively's own claims are no truer today than they were yesterday, and with the facts on our side, we march forward with the same confidence that we had when Ms. Lively and her cohorts initiated this battle."

Dakota Johnson Shocks With Blunt Response To 'Today' Show Question
Dakota Johnson knows exactly what she wants in a relationship. Johnson made an appearance on the 'Today' show on Monday, to promote her new movie, 'Materialists,' where she plays a matchmaker. During the interview with her co-star Chris Evans, the two were asked about a dating non-negotiable they would give a real-life matchmaker. Evans, who is married, said 'They must love dogs ― gotta love dogs.' 'If you're not a dog person, what are we doing?' he asked. Johnson was much more blunt in her take. 'Like, not an asshole?' the actor said as the rest of the studio laughed and 'Today' show host Craig Melvin looked slightly shocked and nodded his head. 'That's concise!' Evans quipped. 'There it is. Nail on the head.' 'Nail on the head,' Melvin said. 'And we're actually going to probably have to clean that up for the West Coast feed. That's OK.' People in the comments of an Instagram post sharing the clip loved Johnson's refreshing take, and praised her for her blunt response. 'Dakota and her spontaneous honesty,' one commenter wrote, as another added, 'I watched this live. Dakota, always be you. Perfect answer!' Someone else in the comments confirmed that Johnson's response was indeed cleaned up for the West Coast feed. 'Bahahahahaha!!! It got bleeped out here,' one person wrote. Johnson may soon be using this non-negotiable to vet potential suitors, as multiple outlets reported that the actor split from longtime partner Chris Martin last week. 'It feels final this time,' a source told People magazine. The two have been on and off since 2017.
