Daily Mail.

It’s all the headset’s fault

I want to apologize to all the English fans who were in the stadium and watching TV. I am mortified and want people to know that I meant no disrespect to anyone. It was an honor for me to be invited to sing the anthem, I was so thrilled. I’ve never sung anything like it. I had tried it twice the day before the game and then three times the same evening but, when the actual performance started, I had a problem with the headset.

I had the right return, but the music stopped before starting again. I was out of sync and it was hard to catch up. been upsetting, fans are right to be angry. I was well prepared, even with clothing. I even had shoes with the flag of England on them

All at my expense

Ellynora also revealed that she was not paid for the performance and that she traveled from the US to Italy at her own expense: They called me at the last second, I was in Miami for music week on Saturday and I got the call. I immediately said yes because it was a great honour, so I took a plane back to Italy and then drove from Rome to Naples. I bought everything myself without getting a penny back. The whole thing cost me more than 3,000 eurosI will ask my manager to write to the organizers to explain how disappointed and angry I was at what happened.
