Does Beyonce ever sing live???
Hi Everyone.
I was watching Beyonce on T4 special thing, and watched her "live"performance of "Irreplacable" which is a great song. Anyway as watching the "live" performance, she clearly took the mic away from her mouth and closed her mouth when she was meant to still be singing. It got me wondering whether she actually ever sings live at all. I have just found a video of the performance on youtube. The link is, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_Eme9WVvzY If you watch it from about 1:19 then that is where the incident is. I find it funny, a little disappointing, but funny. I also have to add that that Ashley Simpson got so much criticism for doing this when she was found out. It's about time we had a real artist that when sings live actually sings "Live". Makes you wonder whether Beyonce will actually be singing live on her tour or whether it will be pre-recorded vocals. Anyway, Thanx for your time heehee. Let me know your comments. Dan |

I noticed that too! I could tell she was miming even before that slip though. I thought most people could tell when singers are miming on stage becuase the sound just doesn't sound right lol I am surprised at Beyonce's laziness though she ahs the talent to sing realy well live so why pre record vocals to fool people. For that T4 show she may as well have mimed the original version of the songs seeing as there was no audience.

Beyonce doe that quite often, which is a shame, because along with Christnia Aguilera, she is one of the best vocalists we have. Unfortunately, unlike Christina, she doesn't have the balls not to sound perfect - she takes the cheap way out and lipsynchs.

I don't see why she went to the extra effort of pre-recording new vocals when she could just have sung live!

I've seen this performance a couple of times on T4, but rather than thinking it was her miming badly it struck me that it had been edited so the audio from one chorus was played over the video of another, but as Beyonce does so many ad-libs it was noticable. I really can't imagine her f**king up so badly - and even if she did, I'd expect her to demand to do it again. All is not as it seems if you ask me...

But I can see why some artists mime, people who have seen 'live' performances of Pink or Avril Lavigne know what I mean. Dear God!

It's got nothing to do with them editing it wrong, the bottom line is Beyonce screwed up.
I agree Beyonce can sing live, I think she has an amazing voice. But the fact remains I don't like the way that she mimed to a song pretending to sing it live because it gets me questioning whether she sings live at all. I especially don't like the double standards, I mean with the whole Ashley Simpson thing again, she got criticised beyond belief for doing the same thing that artists like Beyonce is doing. I'm not a fan of Ashley and I would choose Beyonce over Ashley anyday, but the fact remains why was Ashley picked on so much for doing what other artists do a lot too. This is not the first time that Beyonce has mimed to a pre-recorded live track to make seem like she is singing live. I just don't like it. I would prefer her to actually sing live and make a mistake than to pretend that she is singing live and make no mistakes. |

I watched the link to Beyonce and I thought to myself before I watched it - hey - what if she is dancing really energetically? She might be excused - but she wasnt - she was just standing there - shame on you Beyonce - fooling your fans - I dont like your music anyhows!

Beyonce tends to have the song on in the background and sings over them, especially Crazy In Love where rather than sing the chorus, she just sings "i'm Looking so Crazy your Loves got me lookeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen" for about 2 and a half minutes, whilst the rest of the song plays in the background.
She can sing live, and does regularly. Also Pink is Amazing Live, at the Big weekend this year she wasn't feeling well and still sounded just like her CDs. |
