Country singer Carrie Underwood proved her talent Monday when she sang “America the Beautiful” a cappella last minute after the recorded music didn’t play as planned at President Donald Trump‘s inauguration.
Before she began singing, there seemed to be a technical problem as a moment of prolonged silence took over. Underwood looked at the side of the room, gave a small nod, and smiled at the crowd.
“You know the words help me out here,” Underwood said before singing. The audience then sang along with her.
