Take **te, would-be pop stars: this is how you command an audience.

Singer and middle school assistant principal G. Star Swain (https://www.facebook.com/StarSwai**fficial/) made onlookers swoon with her powerful rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner" at the Lincoln Memorial earlier this month. Swain was initially nervous to tackle the **toriously difficult anthem, but ended up performing anyway — something for which we should all be grateful.

And, hey, those Lincoln Memorial acoustics aren't bad either.
