She was married in Buffalo this summer, her husband is from Depew and her mother is a Buffalo native so who else would sing the national anthem at the Bills-New England game this weekend?

Vanessa Williams is an internationally known actress and recording star and the former Miss America has sold over 25 million records in her singing career.

Williams has worked in film, television and on Broadway, she's had four Emmy nominations, 17 Grammy nominations, and a Tony nomination.

She ultimately won an Oscar, a Grammy and a Golden Globe for her song "Colors of The Wind" in the Disney movie Pocahontas.
