Beyonce Fake Sang Her Way Through The National Anthem At The Inauguration (UPDATED)
Joe Biden knew the truth the whole time and the secret was eating at him!!!!
After the Times of London heard from people sitting near the podium at yesterday's Inauguration that the band wasn't actually playing and Beyonce wasn't actually singing The Star Spangled Banner, they asked a rep for the Marine Corp Band if it was true that she Brit Brit'd her way through the whole thing. They released a statement saying that Beyonce lip-synched her performance. Beyonce fake something? NEVAAAAAAH!
A spokeswoman for the Marine Corp Band said it was standard procedure to record a backing track and Beyoncé decided shortly before her performance to rely on the studio version rather than risk singing it live on the Capitol.
Yo Yo Ma pre-recorded his cello performance in 2008 because the cold weather and wind may have affected the acoustics of his instrument. Vocal performers, however, typically do perform live despite January’s icy conditions.
“We did pre-record it and it was Beyoncé’s decision at the last minute to go with the pre-recorded version,” said a spokeswoman for the band.
“We pre-recorded all music as a matter of course and have done since time immemorial,” she said. “This is our 54th inauguration… There is no question of there not being any music – it’s not because the performer cannot do it.”
Kelly Clarkson, on the other hand, sang live.
But Beyonce ripped her earpiece out and everything! Either Beyonce ripped out that earpiece to throw us off her trail or she ripped it out because she didn't want any distractions while she mouthed that song like nobody had mouthed that song before!!!! The truth is, Beyonce only lip-synched, because if she didn't, her powerful, booming angel hummingbird voice would've broken the protective glass in front of her and lives would've been in danger. Beyonce lip-synched for her life, the president's life, your life and the country's life!
UPDATE - A rep for the Marine Corp is now backpedaling away from their "Beyonce lip-synched" comment and he's now saying he doesn't know. Beyonce didn't rehearse with the Marine Corps Band before the performance, so they used a track, because they didn't feel comfortable with doing it live. They aren't sure if Beyonce used a track for her vocals. via HuffPo:
Marine Corps spokesman Capt. Gregory Wolf said that because there was no opportunity for Beyonce to rehearse with the Marine Band, it was determined that a live performance by the band was ill advised. Instead they used a pre-recorded track for the band's portion of the song.
"Regarding Ms. Knowles-Carter's vocal performance," Wolf's statement continued, "no one in the Marine Band is in a position to assess whether it was live or pre-recorded."
Translation: "Don't come at us, Illuminati! We surrender!"

i don't think i understand things like this. Maybe when i grow older i will but Im 18 and it amazes me from the comments of this post that Beyonce could be one of the greatest singers of our time that created an amazing platform for many singers and artist to be as talented as she is and a wonderful president that is discriminated because of his race and where he was born. i don't believe it matters that Beyonce lip singed her performance considering its her voice, it was maybe to cold for her and she was probably nervous to sing in front of people that would discriminate her if she sang one note or one word wrongly

Her narcissism and fakery is the perfect compliment to BO's narcissism, fake citizenship, fake marriage and fake christianity. Dont forget Hillarys fake head injury as well.
What a perfect symbol of this poisonous administration.

Give it up...Enough with this bullshit and the crazy conspiracies that come with the thought that Obama wasn't born in the states, Hawaii is a state! Over it, and the religious creepers...ughhh
Bey is a world class liar and the perfect spokes-model and distraction for the power structure in DC.
Something was off. You couldn't hear the beginning "Ohhh say can you seeee?" which is the best part of the song because the rest of the melody is awful.The national anthem should be changed. No one likes it much it's all about war. Plus Francis Scott Key was a racist.

I couldn't care less about the political angle but since you brought it up.... I suppose lying about WMDs to justify going to war is admirable? Our govt lies no matter who lives in the WH. This didn't start 4 yrs ago.
As for Beyonce, can't stand the fake ass bitch.
Reeealllly... BEYONCE and the MARINE CORPS BAND couldn't get together for an Hour to practice for the President's Inauguration performance??? Weird.

lol at this retard.
"...because there was no opportunity for Beyonce to rehearse with the Marine Band..."
She's singing at the inauguration of the POTUS and she couldn't find time between her nail appt and getting her weave re-done to fucking PRACTICE? BITCH PLEASE.
This bitch. I don't mind her lip synching because people have done it before including, supposedly, Whitney during her famous national anthem rendition. But at least own up to it and stop lying, beyotch!
It wasn't that gorgeous serviceman/officer they showed in the video, was it? Hubba hubba. My how they're gossipy... Kinda sucks that she didn't sing especially if Kelly did but performers have lip-synched before, so it's not earth shattering. Probably didn't want to disappoint. Good for Kelly though. ;p

I don't feel like I've ever met a Beyonce 'fan'. Not even at the JC. Yea a few guys here and there think she's hot; but a real fan, no.
If yo all are bitchin' about waterboarding being torture, then shut u' azz cuz Beyonce singing live is just about the same thing.

Hey Pushy! ♥
It doesn't matter if Beyonce lip synched or not. Kelly Clarkson upstaged her ass the way Basement Baby would if she could only be let out of that damn basement. Kelly owned that shit!! Girl made me proud for sitting through the first season of that shit American Idol show and voting for her.
Beyonce went all predictably over-dramatic. Her creepy fan girl love for the President did not translate well into her performance. And you know it's gotta be eating Bey up to have gotten upstaged by yet another American Idol person. Jennifer Hudson being the first in Dreamgirls. But that's what happens when Bey Bey is paired with people that have actual talent. Bitch gets upstaged then forgotten until her next fame whore venture. Fuck this bitch.
Yeah. Backtrack = Confirmation! Beyonce is fakey McFakerton. We already knew that, go ahead and relax band members. LOL

Bwaahhhaahaaahhhhaa she fakes again...
Lawwd, I almost barfed in my mouth this morning when I caught a glimpse of that conservative rag, the NY Post. On the cover it read "First Couple" with a big pic of this one and her rapper boyfriend. That was the whole cover. They just couldn't bear running a pic the Obamas, LOL.
Kelly = class

We still have the commercials:) You are right though, I cannot remember the last time there was a great half time show. Stones? I think they did it a few years ago.
The truth is
Beyonce actually has a quite weak voice.

I am supremely happy that this came out. Not only because Kelly Clarkson seems like an actual human being and I'm glad to see her vindicated. I fuckin' hate Beyondlame and I can't wait for her to realize la fish sticks is banging her husband's Joe Camel dick...not that she gives a fuck what us silly cracker plebes think...to talk about giving a one year old diamonds while so many are homeless/hungry should be a damn crime, and don't try to tell me "they've earned their money" b/c I don't give a feel.
(no relation to Jennifer Lopez, she wishes)
kelly nailed it. i hate beyonce. i cant even believe someone actually called her "entertainment" and decided she's doing the superbowl half time. who the fuck wants to see her? we do a superbowl party every year and usually half time is the only thing i'll watch. not this year. its been years since they had a real good act. black eyed peas - awful. madonna - horrible. this year - again, horrible. who is the demographic they are trying to appeal to?

Well for all of those that say it's a difficult venue to sing at that's why they should hire professionals. Beyonce's recording wasn't very good for having been done in a controlled environment. Time to face the facts if you like Beyonce you are really a fan of smoke mirrors and lies and if you're ok with that go on ahead with your bad self. I personally have much higher standards because I can do much more than most people on TV. In fact probably most of you can.
Eh the lip-synching isn't a surprise; what really annoys me is her self-importance. She's just a singer. Her legacy is made up of forgettable songs destined to live on only at weddings and bat mitzvahs. This isn't some life changing shit, it's lowest common denominator entertainment.
She blows.

Karen Flatts is always a cunt
Singing in the kind of venue is difficult, even in the best of weather.
I'm not surprised she lipsynched. So many of them lipsynch now.
Makes one appreciate Christina Agulera going at it raw, no music, no lipsynch, nothing but going out there and willing to fuck it up. I still put Christina's National Anthem up there as one of my favs, fuck up and everything!
Beyonce was not willing to look bad in front of Obama or anyone else. She doesn't really expose herself. It is all about the show, the act. Keep the myth going.

It IS true that everyone in the music industry uses backing tracks these days. The difference is whether their live microphone feed out is turned ON or OFF. Clarkson: ON. Baying-once OFF.
And I honestly think I heard her sing "O'er the rampants we watched." Couldn't bear to listen to that mess again to confirm this.

Fair is foul and foul is fair..
Bey must own a lot of bald horses,cause bitch is ready for the derby in that weave.
Joe could also be making that face because she essentially ignored him en route to the podium. Zero class.

love Joe Biden and the other guys face...they know, Beyawnce we know you are a fraud...I wish she did not join the Illumanti, they become insufferable egomaniacs...she sucks on all levels..hate this cunt with an undying passion.
Of course she faked it. She fakes everything all the time, like her fake songwriting, bitch can barely string a sentence together let along a song. Even her concert vocals are pre recorded. 4 years ago Aretha got up there and belted out a tune in 2 degrees and still had the ability to tell people to shut up while singing, now that is a real Queen.
Foxxy,
Girl, why you gotta bring Marvin into this? Now my panties have dropped and everything!
Bey is one of those class acts I really wanna meet in Hell just to laugh over and over manically in her face 'til Satan's next shift.

Beyonce's anus will soon be featured on Feria's anal hair bleaching line.
Feria has already prepared a statement apologizing for the photoshop bleach job on Beyonce's anus, which appears to be the anus of a Caucasian woman in the advertisements.
I think "Team Creole" is hilarious.
