Charlie performed "The Star-Spangled Banner" at Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, and word on the street is it was absolutely "beautiful."
The "Attention" singer performed the anthem alongside a choir and orchestra, both dressed in all white, with a special guest.
If you were paying close attention, you might've recognized that man standing next to the stage with a saxophone.
That's Grammy Award-winning jazz saxophonist, composer, and record producer Kenny G!
The internet really can't stop talking about Charlie's national anthem performance. Here's what they're saying:
23. And finally, Charlie said, "Thank you everyone for your kind words. It was an honor to sing The National Anthem. I wrote the arrangement in a very specific way to honor Whitney Houston- I hope that was heard. Thank you to the Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir, the Sainted Choir, the Color of Noize Orchestra, Steve Hackman, and Kenny G for joining me on stage. And thank you Adam Blackstone for writing such a beautiful choir part. I love music so much."
