Andress offered an apology to the “MLB, all the fans, and this country I love so much” in a statement posted to Instagram.
She said she will check herself into a facility today “to get the help I need,” quipping: “I’ll let y’all know how rehab is I hear it’s super fun” [sic].
Andress drew criticism for her performance, which was off-key and drew comparisons to other notorious National Anthem renditions, like Fergie’s performance at the 2018 NBA All-Star Game and Roseanne Barr’s at a 1990 MLB game.
