22. Whitney Houston’s Super Bowl moment

Madame Houston’s 1991 performance of the “Star-Spangled Banner” was a television-shattering moment (in a good way). According to Billboard, her recording of the song was released as a commercial single, and reached the Top 20 on the US Hot 100, making her one of the only acts to turn the national anthem into a pop hit.
