Saturday night, Jamie Foxx’s performance of the national anthem during the Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao fight seemed to hit a sour note with fans.

The actor’s version of The Star-Spangled Banner was reworked so heavily it became virtually unrecognizable; particularly at the end when the 47 year old A-lister interjected a series of ambitious riffs that ended in an extended church lady-esque “Hallelujah.”

For a moment, spectators appeared to be unclear if they were at a Saturday night fight or a Sunday morning sermon.
