lol If she's going to do bogus performances, she REALLY needs to practice lip-syncing. She's terrible at it.

Here's a link to the video clip of her on GMA: http://www.collegehumor.com/?movie_id=100705

Honestly, I don't care if a singer lip-syncs during a performance (except when it's on SNL, because I mean, come on. It's Saturday Night LIVE, not Saturday Night Pre-Recorded. If you can't sing live on SNL, don't agree to perform there.). If I were a performer, I'd rather do a good job of lip-syncing and dancing than a bad job of actually singing. But it's gotta be good, it's gotta look like she could POSSIBLY be really singing. And Lindsay is just awful at it.

Edit: After watching the video again, I have to add that she's not that great at dancing either. xD

Edit2: Sorry br00ster. For future reference, here's the direct link to the download itself: http://content.collegehumor.com/media/movies/lindsaylip.wmv :)

Hmm.

If she was outside, I could see it. Truely. Many performers that so do on TV do lipsync on shows such as morning shows, due to the crowds and coldness of many mornings.

However...

She was inside. Unless she is having throat problems, there's no real call for this. And if she was sick (Which this time of year I really wouldn't put it past her) she probably would have made herself look better by just cancelling.

They're having her look too old. She's trying to be...I don't know but it's not good. Keep her to videos and live concerts...that's where she needs to stick.

Can't anybody find sites with this video that DON'T have racy ad's everywhere?

Sat Dec 18, 2004 7:01 am

Just ignore the ads and watch the vid. With sites geared towards college students.. you should be ready for thoe types of ads.

Rofl... you really can't see the little girl in the audience after it happens, but just knowing the face she made is cracking me up.
And BOY.. Lohan just can't lipsync for the life of her.
She was doing bad through the whole thing.. not just the part where she obviously FORGOT HER OWN SONG.

*sigh* Oh well though. It's really not that surprising. These little pop singers nowadays are mainly only there for eyecandy.
Give boys something to fantasize about and give girls a horrible female role-model.

Thank you, Erin, for bringing a bit of hilarity into my day. :P
The pop stars today really make me sad. Back in my day (the 90's, haha), people actually sang their own songs when performing live. Even if it doesn't sound perfect, fans appreciate it more.

Modern people who don't lyp-sync:

Evanescence
Seether
Billy Talent
Jet
Kanye West
Destiny's Child
Jojo
Usher
Most rap artists

Destiny's Child?! I've seen them lip sync for all they're worth on several occasions!
Same with Jojo!

Lip Syncing doesn't bother me on TV and whatnot as long as they're not claiming to be live. So many artists do it, and sometimes I'd prefer to listen to them lip sync than a live band who are crap.
LIke I'd rather watch/listen to Jamelia lip syncing than McFly live.

lol thats hilarious she was terrible

Sat Dec 18, 2004 3:55 pm

anyone whos voice doesnt waver when singing live is lip syncing.
you cannot sing for a protracted time in that manner (IE; people who arent actually singing, EG: rappers can do it) without your voice wavering, no idea why mind.
course thats not too say they dont deserve their contracts and money, but i got called a pratt (two T's dear) the last time i said that.

Sat Dec 18, 2004 4:13 pm

:) Heeeheee....I love it when stars are caught lyp-synching. I'm not the best singer in the world, but I do think I sing better than most of these pop stars out right now.
I agree with Ammer. Amy from Evanescence doesn't lyp-synch because she doesn't have to. And she doesn't pretend to be some sort of "club entertainer" on stage.

Meh...don't I feel old fashioned. :roll:

Now, that isn't true. Sometimes you have to. I don't know if Lindsay has an excuse, however.

Anyways, I feel a little bad for her.. not really because she was caught, but more person everything ripping at her for it.

Why would one have to? If they are physically unable to perform, then they should back down and apologize, rather than pretending to do something that they can't do.

Wow o_0 What can I say... Oh yeah, I was waiting for this to happen.
Honestly, the stuck up deserved it. The way she treats everyone, thinking she's all that.
Anyhow,
2 down, 2 to go. I'm convinced Hilary Duff is next to be exposed 8)

Just curious, who are the other two besides Hilary Duff?

And I have seen Hilary perform live. She's not that bad. She doesn't sound wonderful but I give her credit for singing live. And at the MMVA's, she was singing live but apparently she sounded so horrible they put the real track over it on television.

And for the Lindsay clip. That's hilarious. She deserves it.

Because when I posted I never thought of that as an option. I speak before I think.

But, seriously.. there has to be SOME reason...I just don't know what.

Have you ever noticed that every teenage girl who passes through the halls of Disney eventually becomes a singer? It makes you wonder who else is lip-synching their way into fame.
