Billy Ray Cyrus’ Glitchy Cover of ‘Old Town Road’ at Trump’s Liberty Ball Had Him Asking ‘Is Anyone Awake?’: Watch


Billy Ray Cyrus struggled to perform his bit of Lil Nas X's 'Old Town Road' at Donald Trump's Liberty inaugural ball on Monday night (Jan. 20); watch.

After fellow country star Carrie Underwood ‘s version of “America the Beautiful” was delivered a cappella after two awkward minutes of silence at Donald Trump’s inauguration ceremony on Monday (Jan. 20), the technical issues appeared to continue later that night during a shambolic set by Billy Ray Cyrus at the Liberty Ball. You wanna do a little more of it,” Cyrus croaked, as he strummed the song’s melody on his guitar and whistled the chorus through his teeth to a silent audience just after the video’s credits rolled behind him.
