I tried to keep quiet about this whole “lip-sync” issue because frankly I didn’t think it deserved a response! But now that it has been confirmed that she did indeed lip-sync I have to say.. SO EFFIN’ WHAT?! SHE’S BEYONCE! She could have walked out in a clown suit with a pirate hat on and instructed the audience to sing and it would have been okay!
Who cares whether or not she actually sang the song? The lip-syncing is only a negative thing for those people that can’t actually sing. Think of people like R&B artist Ciara who can barely even HUM let alone sing. In the real world though we all KNOW that Beyoncé can not only sing but she can s-a-n-g! Have you seen the YouTube video of her singing 1+1 a capella ? I almost caught ‘tha ghost! #WONTHEDOIT! Please explain to me why people are comparing her to Kelly Clarkson? “Well Kelly sang live…” Did you really just compare the KING with Kelly Clarkson? OFF WITH YOUR HEAD PEASANT!
Here’s another thing… it’s not like it hasn’t been done before people! ::shrug:: Sources have long since confirmed that Whitney Houston lip-synced her popular rendition of the National Anthem years ago. Does that make her version any less freakishly-awesome?! You can disagree with me but Beyoncé is DEFINTELY on her way to HOUSTON status (some may argue she’s already there).
Oh and let’s not forget how cold it was out there and the obvious audio problems they were having. Now if they could have created a pre-heated, clear, box for Beyoncé to warm up, sound check and perform in then maybe… (tehehe)
Furthermore, let’s be real, her performance or presence wasn’t for you! It was for #stans like me that love to see King Beyoncé address her kingdom (no typo)! So if you are one of those that are really letting your blood pressure rise because she didn’t risk losing her voice for the next week by singing in 37 degree weather then you have more serious issues. Besides all members of the beehive know that if she WANTED to she COULD HAVE done it without any issues, but she didn’t so she didn’t… BOOM!
Just in case you missed the awesomeness that is King Bey here ya go (you’re welcome). ALL BOW TO THE KING!
Sincerely,
The Beehive
I agree with you that if she did lip-sync, so what. It was to her own voice after all! However I don’t agree with you on her vocal skills. Beyonce can sing, yes she can. But she’s not a great singer, what she is is a great, no, an awesome performer and has marketed herself WELL! She stomps with the big dogs when it comes to stage presence and putting on a show to remember. I will never forget when she fell down those stairs, picked up the mic, got up and kept singing! The girl is bad!!!
did you just say that she isn’t great at something? *blink-blink* ::asks for a glass of water and passes out before you can go get it::
*puts the white usher sheet over you and waves a MLK fan to cool you* It’s ok pumpkin, such a loyal stan! LOL
MLK fan?! ::starts digging my own grave cause i’m definitely dead:: Bahahaha
