Members alphanguy74 Posted January 24, 2013 Members Share Posted January 24, 2013 It must be because I work outside all the time, I'm acclimated to the weather more.... you all that have indoor jobs have all gone soft! LOL I don't feel like it's really all that cold unless it's cloudy and windy or below freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted January 24, 2013 Members Share Posted January 24, 2013 Get over it people. It's not like Beyonce was lip synching to Kelly Clarkson's voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted January 24, 2013 Members Share Posted January 24, 2013 There was plenty of shade her response. In her timeless way, the Queen called her out on not being up to par. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alphanguy74 Posted January 24, 2013 Members Share Posted January 24, 2013 yeah... Ree Ree knows how to throw shade in a subtle way. Love it! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted January 24, 2013 Members Share Posted January 24, 2013 Manipiulated me? Oh please. I dont need you to be sad for me. You can take that way back there. I dont need you to post a bunch of video "evidence" of people singing and dancing. I never stated its impossible. Besides those dance moves are pretty basic. Have you seen a Beyonce or Britney Spears show? They dance with pyrotechnics, animals, in the air, ground elevating/moving around them, etc.... That doesnt compare to merely moving ones hips will being able to carry a tune. This aint the 70s. Technology has advanced to allow performances to get alot bigger in scale and many artists have had to adjust to accomodate. Some are better at it, but others arent but that doesnt take away from their vocal ability Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted January 24, 2013 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2013 There were no pyrotechnics or dancing monday. And while this may not be the 70s, at least in the 70s singers sang. Anyway, it has made for at least one clever tabloid headline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Skin Posted January 24, 2013 Members Share Posted January 24, 2013 I honestly don't care about lip syncing several great artists have done it from Micheal to Janet to Britney to Kylie to Madonna to country singers like Reba and Shania. I am glad that Beyonce's shadiness was unveiled though, it annoys me that Beyonce is seen to be untouchable when she isn't. She gets away with far too many things and it far over praised and over rewarded. Her endless grammy's, her stealing writing credits, production credits and denying things that actually happened happening that this little piece of information leaking out is a tiny piece of karma.

Members ReddFoxx Posted January 24, 2013 Members Share Posted January 24, 2013 At the end of the day, it was her choice and it's not like the world is going to end because of it. Those other singers on the platform chose to sing in cold, which was their choice and they had a right to do it. You can sing in the cold, but it's not a great choice for vocal health at all. When Stephen Colbert weighs in with his "outrage", you pretty much know you're dealing with a huge non-issue. http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/tv/showtracker/la-et-st-beyonce-lip-synching-stephen-colbert-20130124,0,6907984.story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members alphanguy74 Posted January 24, 2013 Members Share Posted January 24, 2013 They sure do.... and they sing with computer assistance, in concert and on record, so that's why your'e being manipulated, the entertainment business today is using the shiny bling, the razzle dazzle of technology so you don't notice that your'e being sold style over substance. That's why when someone with real talent finally DOES come along (Adele) then people just cling to her like a life preserver. And the Ikettes were merely moving their hips..... wish I could shake em that fast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted January 25, 2013 Members Share Posted January 25, 2013 no I'm not being manipulated. You act like this one lip synching controversy erases the HUNDREDS of songs she has sung live Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gemma Posted January 25, 2013 Members Share Posted January 25, 2013 I've always felt she's tried to exude this wholesome image, one of humility and just a raw talent. I don't think she's a great vocalist. I don't believe she's a genuine songwriter either, even some of her collaborators have said as much. She's worked hard, no doubt, but I've never been fond of her, her entire image seems fake, fake hair, fake song writing credits. To actually say that while dancing and she's a good dancer (for that kind of dancing) that she doesn't need backing vocals because she can sing and do cartwheels is just another thing that annoys me. Everyone knows that when a singer does even a moderate amount of dancing, they have heavy background vocals because otherwise they'd be out of breath. Why boast? Why the conceit? I definitely believe that sometimes the cold warrants using a pre-recording. However, the lesson here is don't hire someone who isn't willing or is unable to rehearse in a way the performance requires. It's the national anthem, not singing Happy Birthday to a bunch of 2nd graders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members allmc2008 Posted January 25, 2013 Members Share Posted January 25, 2013 A little OT but I hate out people make the White House into the Playboy Mansion. What I mean is that the WH should not be the target for the Entertainment media. The Obama, Hilliary, and the rest our POLITICAL FIGURED NOT ENTERTAINERS. That said they can be entertaining but they are not super-stars. Beyonce's choice is her choice. This was a SERIOUS national even not a football game or a concert. Sure, they get more ratings but they don't dictate the life of this nation so like they say "It is what it is". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
