ATLANTA, Ga. – Renowned soul singer and member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Gladys Knight wowed the crowd at Super Bowl LIII with her rendition of the national anthem.

Knight is known for a dramatic and long-winded style and as such, many sportsbooks were taking bets on the length of her anthem-singing.

Social Media Reacts

Many fans of football and Knight, who was born in Atlanta, took to social media to express their appreciation of the singer’s unique interpretation of the national anthem.
