"Singing our National Anthem for the American People is my honor," Gaga tweeted before the inauguration event. "I will sing during a ceremony, a transition, a moment of change – between POTUS 45 and 46. For me, this has great meaning."

"My intention is to acknowledge our past, be healing for our present, and passionate for a future where we work together lovingly," she continued. "I will sing to the hearts of all people who live on this land. Respectfully and kindly, Lady Gaga."

A day for dreaming of our future joy as a country. A dream that is non-violent, a dream that provides safety for our souls. Love, from the Capitol "
