Ciara kicked off the 86th Major League Baseball All-Star Game (MLB) with a stirring rendition of the American national anthem at the Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati, Ohio on Tuesday, July 14.

Ciara, along with three backup singers, belted out the National Anthem, and managed to avoid the many pitfalls the iconic song can present for so many singers whose flubs have become legendary.

Ciara took to Instagram after her performance to share a field-level video of her performance and accompanying fireworks, which she captioned, " What An Amazing Experience #Grateful."

The 29-year-old star had a lot of support and love going into the event as well. Yesterday, CiCi's boyfriend, Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, tweeted, "I can't wait to watch my girl @Ciara perform the National Anthem at the @MLB All-Star Game tomorrow night!"

Russell and Ciara have reportedly been dating since April, and recently the NFL star got candid about their sex life, revealing that they are practicing abstinence... an information which trended on social media for two days and has been praised by the Christian folks.
