Remember the month before you started your senior year of high school? How did YOU want your senior portraits to look? Did your well-meaning mother have to rein in your artistic vision? I know when I was 17, I too thought the “photo shopped flaming soccer ball” in my hand would have looked “pretty bad ass.”
Alls I’m saying is that everybody has wackadoo taste at 17; we’re just working with different budgets.

Butchered celebrity performances of “The Star-Spangled Banner” are as important to American history as the anthem itself, but Steven Tyler gave us something entirely different during today’s AFC Championship. His may be the first rendition that screeched whilebeing butchered.
Sure, there are the classic mispronunciations and forgotten lyrics we’ve all come to expect (“And the rockets’ red glare as bombs bursting in air”?), but what’s really special about this performance is Tyler’s emergency brake of a voice.
Steven definitely deserves an A+ for effort (he was clearly giving 110%), but maybe his singing voice just shouldn’t leave the station again anytime soon.
This may be my last-ever post for gawker, so I thought I’d leave them on a
