WASHINGTON - A full-throated, supremely confident Lady Gaga belted out the national anthem Wednesday in a very Gaga way with flamboyance, fashion and passion.

She [Gaga] was followed by Jennifer Lopez, dressed all in white, delivering a moving medley of This Land is Your Land and America the Beautiful.
