Re: Jennifer Hudson Lip Synched the National Anthem
Firstly - I'm confused if this is the way its done every year, why is it news and ppl are making a big woop to do about it?
Secondly - with that aside, I dont care whether it was lip synched or not. I think she has a good voice either way.

Re: Jennifer Hudson Lip Synched the National Anthem
I'd rather have someone mess up the National Anthem from being emotional then lip synch it. Why have someone pretend to sing it live. Just play it over the speaker then. I just don't understand this at all.

Re: Jennifer Hudson Lip Synched the National Anthem
I'm sure the pre-record has to do with TV and the time constraints it imposes.

I find it disappointing. I wish they were allowed to sing it live.
so do I...if every performance is going to be "taped" before hand...why bother having real people on stage...just have a slide show of pictures of them!!

Re: Jennifer Hudson Lip Synched the National Anthem
Ricky Minor, the producer, told the Associated Press after the performance that he insisted that Hudson use the vocal track she submitted to the NFL a week before the game instead of singing live.
“That’s the right way to do it,” Minor said. “There … [are] too many variables to go live. I would never recommend any artist go live because the slightest glitch would devastate the performance.”
What’s unclear is if Hudson sang along with the backing track, or simply lip-synched. Her breathing patterns, including a couple of audible sighs, indicate that she may have been singing, but it’s difficult to prove.

The performances prior to hers were lip synched as well.
ETA: I was disappointed to hear this. It's not her fault, it's what the producer made them do, but I don't think it's right.

Re: Jennifer Hudson Lip Synched the National Anthem
I could care less if it was lip synched. I don't see why it would bother someone either.
It's not like you know she CAN'T sing....I think she could have belted that out live and had it sound JUST as amazing...

Re: Jennifer Hudson Lip Synched the National Anthem
I think it's usually pre recorded -
It's VERY hard to stand in a stadium and sing live and a capella ......... - the acustics are weird, you can't really 'hear' yourself, the mics screw everything up -
I've done it -
I can't IMAGINE having to do it in an NFL football stadium, packed, nationally televised ........
IMO she gets a pass .......it's not like it wasn't HER voice -

The NFL "requires" them to pre record the National Anthem....everyone who has sung it at the superbowl has had it pre-recorded and lip sing it
its not her fault so I don't judge her fro it, but in general I don't think its acceptable ever. The lip singing is completely getting out of hand.
A friend of mine went to a Madonna concert a few years ago, and said it was so hot. She said Madonna can't have the a/c on b/c it effects her singing by drying out her vocal cords. I was wowed by this. It made me think that this must happen to other performers right? And not to many of them do this.. Makes me wonder

I have to agree here. She (and any other artist who previously lip synced) gets a pass because this was THE SUPER BOWL. The organizers/TV people, producers, etc. don't view that as simply another football game - it's SHOW BUSINESS.
And to the OP about Roseanne Barr - another great point.

yes but Rosanne Barr is NOT a singer and had NO right to sing the anthem. My point is why have "live" performances by TRUE aritists and then have their performance taped??
