Welcome to younghollywood. com. Hey guys, it's Joe Woodman for Young Hollywood. We are downtown at the Staples Center right before the Lakers game and I'm gonna take you court side. Here with Ashley Arda. She just performed the national anthem at Staple Center for the Lakers game.

Ashley Arda

I feel great. I was really nervous at first, especially when she was like, "Alright, it's your turn to go on the court." I was like, "Oh my gosh, what am I doing?" But then I got there and I started the song and I was like, "Okay, this isn't that bad. I just concentrate and just sing it like you practiced it."

Young Hollywood

She was not nervous. She was jumping around and smiling before. I was watching you, you did not seem nervous at all and you blew everyone away with your voice.

Ashley Arda

Thank you. I had a great time.

Young Hollywood

She was not only performing in front of the whole Lakers team but her favorite player, I hear, Kobe Bryant. And I don't know if you saw Adam Levine was sitting front row watching.

Ashley Arda

Really? Everyone is facing the flag. So like, I didn't see anyone. I was just like, flag. Look at the flag. Look at the flag. So I didn't see really? Oh my gosh. That's so cool. I have to go back in and I'm gonna like, I'm gonna freak out.

Young Hollywood

That's she got a great round of applause. Everyone was very excited. What was going through your head when you were like that close to the Lakers and that your favorite team, your favorite player, Kobe?

Ashley Arda

Don't mess up. I was going, don't mess this up. Don't mess this up. Don't mess this up. But it it worked out great.

Ashley Arda

Oh my gosh, it was so great. It was really nice to see them before the performance. I think that calmed me down a little bit. I was like, "Okay, well people are here to support me." I wasn't able to see Matt beforehand but he's in there watching right now so I'm I'm gonna see him later but. Hey guys. So I had a great time singing. We were court side. It was so much fun.
