The artist is not supposed to sing on a concert like that, they most likely don't even have proper sound feed of their own voice.<br />Now try talking when you can't hear yourself and if you record yourself, you will be surprised how different you sound (similar to people who speak really loud when they have their headphones on).<br /><br />So not defending her talents here but we shouldn't be judging somebody's singing abilities when they were not even able to sing properly.<br /><br />The question of whether lip synced concerts are a good idea is a whole different subject.Jacek Sniecikowskihttp://www.sniecikowski.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5913752433926766420.post-38312932820514514552010-05-12T10:07:20.077-07:002010-05-12T10:07:20.077-07:00I think its also worth taking into account what a ...I think its also worth taking into account what a pop performance entails. Rich Cronin of LFO (Who happened to tour with Spears) laid it out pretty simply.<br /><br />You cannot dance and sing. Or rather you can't do both at once well. The moves she's pulling on this video are so physically demanding that there's no way she's even attempting to sing. What we're hearing is the feed from her mic while the backing track plays. She's moving her mouth and making noise because you can tell when someone's just moving their mouth.<br /><br />I see it a lot with pop. They'll Lip-Sync the vocals to the dance numbers and then sit still and bust out the ballads. <br /><br />Can she sing? Maybe... Could she ever? Heck yes- that's impressive!M Pallantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12161369864497765598noreply@blogger.com
