The Boston Pops Firework Spectacular was full of star-spangled celebration on the Fourth of July.
Crowds blew bubbles, waved flags, danced and cheered as the Pops played classic patriotic tunes. The Singing Sergeants, Broadway star Kelli O'Hara and R&B and soul singer Darlene Love performed before fireworks lit up the sky.
