Christina explained:

“I took in the moment a little bit too much.”

She added:

“Shoot me for appreciating the moment but here I am at the Super Bowl…singing for a team and in front of the world. And remembering what it was like to be that young and look where I made it now.”

The pop star admitted that she was well aware of her mistake as she had been singing the national anthem since she was a child.

She has since learned to forget about the embarrassing incident and has moved on, stating:

“But I have a really good laugh about it and you get over things. You get back up again and you just prove to yourself and to everyone you that much stronger.”

Christina also talked about having someone new in her life and the difficulty of going through a divorce. The pop star recently reached a divorce settlement with her ex-husband Jordan Bratman.

Despite having a rough year so far, Christina is excited about putting the past behind her as she welcomes her new job as a judge on ‘The Voice,’ a new singing competition show similar to hit show ‘American Idol’.
