What is up with the lip syncing on American Idol this year?
I think the American Idol singers are lip syncing on the results show. I don’t understand why they are doing this and I have never noticed it before this year. Have they done this every year and I haven’t noticed?

I don’t get it either! I read in USWeekly that they do indeed lip sync the musical group numbers.
I noticed that too. Previous years, they were live. Trust me, they usually sound horrible during the group songs. But this year they sound too good. I heard that they pre-record the group songs and then lip them. I’m not sure if it’s true.
Yeah, I think it’s true. This year I noticed they were lip singing when last year, I did not.
Yes, they are definitely lip syncing this year….you could really tell when Scott was singing at the piano, and when some of the others were signing, they stopped but for a second after their voice was continuing. I really don’t like this idea, it really takes away from the authenticity of the show…I mean, are they trying to give us one less performance to base our favourites on?
you’ve noticed too? at first i just thought maybe my television was off, but i’ve noticed every week that the results show they lip sync. Tonight I really noticed it when scott was singing. They all sound really good together, I don’t understand why they are lip syncing. I’ve never noticed other years of them doing this.
I think they lip synced their group song the one week.
they just started doing it!
maybe it so they dont mess up.
cause meagen forgot the words to her song when she got booted off.
I noticed it too! i thought it was my tv for a second…its really disappointing to watch…i wish they would just let them sing live…its so much better.
I actually prefer some of the live performances over the studio ones!
