Actress Selena Gomez surprised students at a Colorado high school to support a local volleyball team who publically pleaded for the actress to attend.

Gomez made the unannounced visit at Telluride High School over the weekend while she was in town to promote her movie “Emilia Pérez” and students posted a bright orange sign asking her to perform the national anthem — suggesting two potential times between Aug. 30 and Aug 31.

“They asked!! Couldn’t help it, it’s my first time in Telluride!”

...

The “Only Murders in the Building” actress posted a carousel of the event with a video showing her walking into the gym and shocking the teenage athletes playing on the court. In the same clip, fans in the stands rushed onto the floor to greet her.

“I saw the sign and so I had to come,” Gomez told the shocked team.

...

The former child star posed for pictures with the team and signed autographs — including a forehead —at the school in the small town located in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains.

Not sure who Selena Gomez is…

But for an incredibly powerful version of our national anthem, check out Meat Loaf at the 1994 MLB All-Star game. This man had an incredible voice, and this is a very powerful and moving version.

It’s a damn shame kids and most adults have stars in their eyes and worship elitists all the time.

It was a better world when entertainers were considered to be the bottom rung of society. Now people vote for candidates that the celebrities endorse.

Well she did give up a kidney to a relative.

She does seem to be a bit liberal to be sure.

But, she also shows that not everyone that started off as a Disney Kid ends up in rehab.

I have no control over what he did with his personal life… But there’s no denying the man had a set of lungs, and he did the national anthem proud.

He didn’t scratch it, or Mangal, it, or otherwise, eff it up like others have done intentionally disrespected.

People make mistakes, and bad choices in their lives. Sometimes they manage to make up for it. Sometimes they don’t.

That is beyond your control, and mine. We are responsible for our own lives, and our own actions, and that’s it.

I thought it was the other way round. Beg forgiveness.

She does still do a lot of charity work.
