Roseanne Barr sings! And it’s not the national anthem!
Warbling a personalized version of “My Way” at the end of her new HBO comedy special, she proclaims: “And as the baseball fans all watched, butchered that song and grabbed my crotch. Yes, I was loud, but I was proud, and did it my way.”
This time, the audience is with her. In 1990, when she performed a sharply off-key rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner” at a Southern California baseball game and included a couple of crass gestures, she was greeted by jeers and worse.
The ensuing controversy — was she mocking America or just trying to be funny? — derailed her professionally, she said, and made her fearful for her and her family’s safety. It took until now to believe she could or should reinvigorate her career, Barr said.
