Fans who were able to see a very rare concert with Britney Spears performing at The House of Blues are now crying fowl because she was lip synching, they accused. Britney Spears took the stage with her new the M and M's, wearing a brown wig and her usual strange dance outfits for her performance.

Fans of the pop star loved the performance but now a day later, there seems to be a backlash as many are angry that she did not sing live. This is a strange accusation for Britney fans to make because she has rarely ever sung live. In the course of her career Spears has sung live infrequently and it is usually ballads that are sung live. I think the fans who are most upset are the ones who paid $500 for $35 tickets just to see Britney "live" after almost 4 years. Spears did not lip synch to any new music, she instead performed old hits that include: Slave 4 you, and Baby One More Time.

In her concerts when her microphone is turned on for her to talk to the audience, you can hear Spears gasping and trying to catch her breath and seconds later when she breaks back into song, she is smoothly singing without a problem, yet somehow her fans are just catching on that she might not be the "live" singer they thought she was.

Britney Spears is a performer. That means that she is a great dancer and gives an overall good performance when you go to see her in concert. If you are expecting a great singing show, it would be best to hit a Christina Aguilera concert because she at least can sing but she doesn't quite have the moves of Britney.

The "concerts" if they can be called that were short at only 11 and 12 minutes long. In one concert, a fan threw what looked to be a marshmallow at Spears and it just missed her when her bodyguards escorted the singer offstage because of that little incident.

In another move Britney seemed to take the words from one of her songs "Toxic" in which she sings, "I need a hit, baby give me it" and gave them a whole new meaning as she put her fingers to her nose and mimicking snorting cocaine with a smile.

Borrowing yet another page from the Madonna play book, Britney Spears has reportedly begun her own record label--Enslaved Records. Owned by Sony BMG Music Entertainment, Britney's label is in negotiations to sign its first act. Hoping to equal the success of Maverick Record's first cash cow, Alanis Morisette, Britney's label is in negotiations with a New York based hard rock band called MEAN VENUS. Britney allegedly encountered MEAN VENUS mid-set some months ago at NJ's legendary Stone Pony (the historic rock club where the likes of Bruce Springsteen cut his teeth) and offered the MEAN VENUS boys a deal on the spot. MEAN VENUS' lead singer (who goes merely by the initial, J) has also been rumoured to be involved with Mrs. Spears in a more than professional capacity as well. The MEAN VENUS buzz began with the rumour that lead singer, J, was none other than the illegitimate son of Led zeppelin's very own Robert Plant and that the unsigned band would be opening

The majority of these pop artists lip sync. Its a known fact! They are what you call studio artists. Hell if I'd pay $60+ to see them lip sync to their CD. Thank God REAL artists like Van Halen, Motley Crue, Poison, Metallica still tour. At least they can sing live and play their own instruments.

When has she not lip synched? Maybe some of her fans are too young to realize this but she has always lip synched. Her voice is weak and out of tune live. I heard it just once and it was sad. When was the last time anyone heard Christina Aguilara fake it? That's because she has real talent even if she does rainbow too much. Britney is a joke and always has been. She's an entertainer, not a singer.

Same thing happened with Milli Vanilli remeber? Except it was someonelse's voice on the tape. Either way no one likes lypsnching If I paid those prices I expect live singing.

Well written article. I have a feeling that most singers and bands lip sync. People would probably be surprised.

Sounds like this girl has some major problems and singing is not going to solve them. To bad, she really wasn't that bad. It is a shame for someone so young to have this many problems, all ready.

I think her time of singing fame is over.

Very interesting article. I just don't know what to think about Britney anymore. I hope she finds a way to turn her life around.

It's insane that people are just now realizing this. Great article!

Great article

I would think most of them lip sync. How can you dance in that way and sing perfectly at the same time?

Posted on 05/08/2007 at 12:05:00 PM

 
I'm not sure why people are shocked when pop stars lip-synch; especially since Britney has been through this same thing before.
