Jewel was chosen to sing the [[The Star-Spangled Banner|American national anthem]] at the opening of [[Super Bowl XXXII]] in January 1998 in San Diego.<!-- Reference no longer available at this source; Attempted verification July 21, 2008 --<ref>{{cite news| url=http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4196/is_19980118/ai_n10390454| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071013155305/http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4196/is_19980118/ai_n10390454| url-status=dead| archive-date=October 13, 2007| title =NEXT STOP: SUPER BOWL XXXII| access-date = December 9, 2017}}</ref> --> She was introduced as "San Diego's own Jewel!" but criticized for [[lip sync]]ing the anthem to a digitally-recorded track of her own voice. This was especially noticeable due to her missing her cue and not mouthing the first words. Super Bowl producers have since admitted that they attempt to have all performers pre-record their vocals.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/WinterConcert/Story?id=6788924&page=1 |title=Hudson's Super Bowl Lip-Sync No Surprise to Insiders | work=ABC News |archive-date=December 20, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131220170120/http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/WinterConcert/Story?id=6788924&page=1| date=February 3, 2009 }}</ref> She performed "[[The Star-Spangled Banner]]" again in the [[2003 NBA Finals]] in one of the [[New Jersey Nets]]' home games.<ref>{{cite web|work=NBA.com|url=http://www.nba.com/news/music_030602.html|title=Lisa Marie Presley, Jewel And Phish To Highlight Star-Studded Musical Lineup For NBA Finals 2003|date=June 2, 2003|author=NBA Staff|access-date=April 26, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110427134210/http://www.nba.com/news/music_030602.html|archive-date=April 27, 2011|url-status=dead}}</ref>
 
Jewel's second studio album, which she titled ''[[Spirit (Jewel album)|Spirit]],'' was released on November 17, 1998.<ref>{{cite journal|journal=Spin|title=Naïf in the Heart|author=Vowell, Sarah|date=January 1999|page=111|via=Google Books|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=YG5YubNw1pgC&q=jewel+kilcher&pg=PA111}} {{Free access}}</ref> The album debuted at number 3 on the Billboard 200 with 368,000 copies sold in its first week. It eventually sold 3.7 million units in the United States.<ref>{{cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/957692/ask-billboard-jewel-ciara-ricky-martin|title=Ask Billboard: Jewel, Ciara, Ricky Martin|magazine=Billboard|access-date=July 26, 2013}}</ref> Its lead single, "[[Hands (Jewel song)|Hands]]", peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Other singles followed, including a new version of "Jupiter (Swallow the Moon)", "What's Simple Is True", which she meant to be the theme song to her upcoming movie, and the charity single "Life Uncommon".<ref>{{cite news| url=http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=1353251| title =Spirit thing|website=Everything2.com| access-date = March 2, 2007}}</ref> Shortly after the release of ''Spirit,'' Jewel made her acting debut playing the character Sue Lee Shelley in [[Ang Lee]]'s Western film ''[[Ride with the Devil (film)|Ride with the Devil]]'' (1999), opposite [[Tobey Maguire]]. The film received mixed-positive reviews,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/ride_with_the_devil_1999/|work=Rotten Tomatoes|title=Ride With the Devil (1999)|date=September 5, 2006 |access-date=March 30, 2017}}</ref> though critic [[Roger Ebert]] praised her performance, writing: "Jewel deserves praise for, quite simply, performing her character in a convincing and unmannered way. She is an actress here, not a pop star trying out a new hobby."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/ride-with-the-devil-1999|work=Chicago Sun-Times|first=Roger|last=Ebert|title=Ride with the Devil Movie Review|date=December 17, 1999|access-date=April 7, 2017}}</ref>
