In Case You Missed It, Scotty McCreery Proves He's A Graduate Of Ashlee Simpson's School Of Lip-Synching
Pretty much every single performer at the Macy's Skanksgiving Day Parade moves their mouths to a pre-recordered track, because of sound issues or some shit like that. So it's sort of like an unofficial competition to see who can successfully LIP SYNCH FOR THEIR LIFE!!! and who lip-synchs as good as a walrus' asshole. Scotty McCreery, the Howdy Doody fetus with a Stetson Man voice who won American Idol last season, threw himself into the latter category yesterday when his moving lips lagged 3 seconds behind his singing voice. (Yes, THIS is news.) You know, I watched some of Brit Brit's Femme Fatale Tour on HBO yesterday (blame the 6,000 calorie meal that put me into a body coma and made it impossible for me to even raise my hand to change the channel) and Scotty makes her look like the grand champion of Puttin' On The Hits. That's saying a lot. So at least his ass accomplished that.

I really wanted my kids to like this parade, they are ages 3 and 7 and after 20 minutes they both said to please let them watch something else. All the musical acts are lame and we all know they all lip sync anyways. It has been commercialized way too much and now the parade just sucks.
Wow. Why would anyone punish herself by listening to that? He sucks!
What is that thing?
Justin Bieber lip-synched his way through the today show and Katy Perry got caught out for faking playing an instrument. Somewhere Manilli Vanilli are laughing and shaking their heads.
No shit! They got crucified for something most of these untalented asshats do all the time.
Ouch.
My HS marching band performed in the Macy's Parade one year. I thought I, and the parade, were the shit. Now I think it's just lame.

My mother always tries to give me a guilt trip for not attending shitshows like the Macy's parade and the tree-lighting in person with our kids since we live in Manhattan. Fuck that. It is SO overrated. Ever since the Giuliani days the police are complete fascists, the crowds are horrendous and unless you camp out all day for a spot, you can't see dick. "Oh but it would be so fun for the kids!". Uhhhh NO. They hate crowds, too. And until they're old enough to get themselves home if we get separated... They're a little jaded anyway.
What we DID do, though, is take the train to Stamford and see the test run parade of the same balloons. It's totally mellow and the stakes aren't as high so people aren't ready to murder you to get three inches closer to the polic barricades.
Rant over.

YTF do people always clap when they high kick? It's not exactly a highly-skilled move that requires a master's degree and years of experience.
Yeah, I don't know why but high kicks excite people. One year while auditioning for the cheer squad (you have to re-audition every year) I high kicked. Nothing abnormal, just kicked in between cheers (you know, when you're saying things like: go X city, go X team mascot). I'm pretty flexible so the high kick was really high (as usual) and the crowd went wild. I didn't really get it, it seemed totally normal and non-amazing to me.I mean yeah, when I kicked my foot aligned next to my head but I never once thought that was anything uber amazing. Meh, people are somehow impressed by something that really doesn't take much effort, just some regular stretching.
Scotty just doesn't please me like a Micheal Buble does.

Hilarious! Bad week for American Karoake. Yesterday at the Packers-Lions game, the other AI finalist flubbed the National Anthem. Get these fucks off my TV!!! Even if I'm NOT watching lol.
Oh, come on, this has been a problem for decades in this parade. Trying to sync up broadcast music, with a "mouthing" live performer on a damn float, is asking for trouble. They used to hand over an actual mic in the old days. But even 20 years ago, they were faking it in this parade, which is the last time that I actually watched it.
The Rockettes? UGH. I was forced to attend one of their travelling shows a few years back (it involved sex - my reason for going, not the show), and the crowd was nothing but white trash.
I didn't even watch the parade this year. My little boy wanted to, so we did try for 20 minutes. All we saw was two musical numbers and that irritating twit from Gilmore Girls plugging her new show. All it is now is a 'plug NBC' show with the parade running in the background. I miss the days when they would actually show the fucking PARADE! They would tell about each band that was playing and tell about each float and balloon (how big they were, how long it took to make, etc.). Nope. Not this year. I got pissed and switched over the local St. Louis parade. Lo and behold, they actually showed THE PARADE.

I hate when they have to modernize traditional crap. Why not put Santa in skinny jeans and a sweater like Bieber wore on the Today Show? Hell, why have reindeer, just line up 8 Prius' and call it a day!

I'm playing spot the Kuntashian (or one of their butt fucking spouses). There has to be a Kunt lurking somewhere right? They lip synch their entire fucking lives don't they?
KUNTS.

The Macy's parade is one big flub, imo.
^^^^^
Waaaaaaaay too much Broadway. And now they have the new Santa and reindeer which sucks monkey dick. Tom Turkey is the damn same so why not Santa? Why did they have to make him and his reindeer all techno-looking, dammit?

Why do they keep coming up with these singing competition shows when none of these people except for a few (Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood) gain anything from it.
This dude wasn't even close as far as lip-synching. I know it's hard to stand there and mouth words but damn.
LOL! mehhh... chile. that performance needs more of this --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdXsGb5VYfw
I haven't watched the parade since I figured out it was nothing but high school marching bands, Broadway songs and the damn Rockettes who haven't had a new dance since 1945.

I've been around a few years. My Dad took me to my first Macy's Day Parade when I was three. Yes they had balloons back then. Macy's day parade today is just a sham, just a huge advertisement for "what's on Broadway today." Al Roker and Matt Lauer, losers.

Except the dead one. Don't know if he was Milli or Vanilli.
OMG, my friends and I loved Puttin' On the Hits! We were going to try out for it one time. LOL

And as far as Scotty...AHAHAHAHAHAHA....hated him on Idol. A friend of mine said he would win about 3 weeks into the show. (Have no idea how he knew since we both agreed Scotty sucked.) When it became painfully evident that Scotty WAS going to win, I got my life in order and stopped watching Idol. Shame on me for taking as long as I did.

I can't be bollocksed to play the video, but I imagine I wouldn't enjoy Scotty McCreery performing even if his lips did sync up.

Oh Scotty, familiarize yourself with the name Taylor Hicks. It'll be necessary.
Does anyone under age 60 even listen to his type of music? Has any of those AI winners, other than Kelly Clarkson, actually had a successful music career?
