Kelly Clarkson scores kudos for National Anthem Performance. Watch it here! [video]

Kelly Clarkson scored lots of high marks for her rendition of the National Anthem during Sunday’s Superbowl.

In case you missed it, we’ll kick off Music Monday’s with this video of Kelly’s performance of the “Star Spangled Banner” here (until it’s yanked off of YouTube):

In a time when many seasoned performers tend to make headlines for flubbing up their National Anthem performances, it is refreshing to see Clarkson pull it off right.

Here’s what some other media outlets are saying about Kelly’s opening of Super Bowl XLVI:

” the pop star and former “American Idol” winner is a pro.” – the Washington Post

“Kelly Clarkson nails Super Bowl 2012 National Anthem” -Phoenix New Times

“Kelly Clarkson honors America at Super Bowl” -Associated Press

Clarkson, the first winner of Fox’s “American Idol” will be joining NBC’s “The Voice” this season as the mentor of Team Blake Sheldon who performed “America The Beautiful” prior to Kelly’s performance on Sunday.
