Underwood followed Queen Latifah, who treated the crowd to a performance of "America The Beautiful." The singer and actress, accompanied by a choir, began a traditional rendition of the patriotic song then put a unique, gospel-like spin on the ending. Super Bowl 44, featuring the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints, took place at Miami's Sun Life Stadium, and aired live on CBS on Sunday.
