While Fergie's National Anthem performance at NBA-All Star Weekend was widely criticized, some people, including Wiz Khalifa, have come to her defense.

Wiz took to Twitter, writing, "I liked Fergies national anthem. It was orginal and fun just like her. People didn’t like Jimi Hendrix’s version of the anthem at the time he did it but it later became legendary. Takes guts to be yourself."

Comedian Aries Spears responded to Wiz's comment, saying, "N***a put the weed down," to which Wiz said, "People are so quick to clown another person just cause somebody else does. I just like to be different my n***a."
