I never understand why people get in a twist when an artist lip-syncs. As long as it’s them, I could care less. Talk about less than a tempest in a teapot.

Beyonce sang beautifully-it’s a very difficult song to sing with an incredible range. She wanted it perfect and it was. Vocal chords can be affected by the cold, too. Who cares that she did this. She can sing.

Just in case there is anyone left who thinks that “they” won’t do anything to make “their” vision perfect - this bit of trivia ought to prove the point. Who cares? They do. You should think about that when other issues come up where it seems that “someone” was willing to go to great risk to create a visual that the media would like.

It is really fitting.

Obama uses a teleprompter and Beyonce was lip-syncing.

America has truly reached a new low.

Exactly, the truth of the matter is not the point. Just the staging to convey the message!

Fake singing for our fake president. Fitting.

Should of? If she lipsynced, then why didn't she lipsynced somebody better, or anyone, someone louder like say, Ethel Merman. Or if she's so good, then why didn't they give a chance to a homeless street person to lipsync Beyond's recording, since to the hard of seeing and the millions of radio listeners worldwide, it din't matter after all who was seen by the few who watched, and did it from a far distance anyway. For the pure shoe biz entertainment values I would have preferred Lypsinka herself!

There's no rational reason to care whether Beyonce was lip-syncing or really singing when she performed at the presidential inaugural Monday. But the disclosure was troubling nonetheless.
There's no rational reason to care, but we care.

Well, color me surprised (sarcasm) at the irrational press.

Obama was sworn in privately on 1/20 as required by the Constitution.

The whole thing Monday was a photo op designed not to clash with football broadcasts and to coincide with the Rev. MLK Jr. holiday.

FAKE FAKE FAKE
Fake ceremonies sung by fake performers for a fake president.

I was absolutely devastated to learn they Beyonce had lip synced the National Anthem. I was even more devastated when Emperor Bokassa Hussein Obama I was reelected.

I suspected that patriotic Americans didn’t bother watching this fakery!

I thought it was very fitting - fake just like Obama.

Bay once or bay twice, a recording sounds just as nice.

I didn’t watch one nanosecond of the coronation. Watched a lot of “NCIS” reruns and a few episodes of “Homeland.”

Simple reason to lip sync, she didn’t know the words.

“I thought it was very fitting - fake just like Obama.”

So true...
