The Cowboy Cassanova hitmaker stood in front of former President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris to perform the patriotic song.

Lee Greenwood performed God Bless the USA, while Christopher Macchio sang the national anthem. Underwood's performance came on the heels of The View co-host Joy Behar slamming her as “unAmerican” for accepting the invitation to sing on Inauguration Day.
“She says, ‘I love our country.’ How do you love your country and support and normalize somebody who was a convicted felon who really wants to destroy the country, in my opinion?
