i HATE when she lips (trust me, she does, and as a BIG stan i'm so disappointed in her) but this one time i have to say it's kind of reasonable. you can't mess up the national anthem, especially at an event like this. a lot of artists do that... i just hope she sings live during the promotion of the album (but for the superbowl, at least, i'm not counting on that)
That was for the show. She even took it out to be like: Look at me I'm singing live.
I can see how you could speculate that. Conspiracy theorists are hard to deal with because they are never satisfied with any shred of truth. They just dismiss it as a calculated occurrence, because they're already not trusting in the first place.
Like if a real representation with an actual name came forward and said it wasn't true, there would be people saying, "He was told to make that statement."
For now I will chose not to believe it because of the source. If it comes to be true then so be it, but I even admit her performance was not perfect (which people will say was to sound live), but for example the part where she says "Proooooooooooof" sounded weird to me, and I doubt the perfectionist that is Beyonce would do that in a pre-recoreded track.
Like? The woman is most manipulative amongst the music business. She's just not retarded like Britney who just pop the CD in. Very theatrical to make it believable, but if you're good at these things you can pick up on it.
