Sports Flashback: Whitney Houston Opens The 1991 Super Bowl

Singer Whitney Houston’s rendition of the national anthem during Super Bowl XXV, backed by the Florida Orchestra, was later released as a single, where it reached number 20 on the Billboard Hot 100, making her the only artist to turn the national anthem into a hit single.The single was also reissued after the September 11, 2001 attacks a decade later and charted even higher on the Hot 100, reaching number six. Houston’s performance at Super Bowl XXV in 1991, during the Gulf War, is largely regarded as one of the best renditions of the U.S. national anthem in history.
