Malea has become an internet sensation for her rendition over the weekend before an MLS soccer game in Los Angeles between the LA Galaxy and Seattle Sounders. Watch it here. As ABC News explains, Malea won the Galaxy's anthem-singing contest on social media, then proved why, to the delight of both fans and players. "I was thinking that I cannot do anything wrong because it's a really special song to America," she tells ABC. (More national anthem stories.)
