If you cannot sing, for whatever reason, then don't, don't even pretend to.

It doesn't matter how many people are expected to attend your show, they will understand if you are sincere about the condition that prevents you from singing.

If your choreography is so demanding that it makes you feel out of breath, then work out more to improve your VO2 max or loosen your choreography to match your current fitness.

If you feel like dancing, but have no voice, then go out there and leave them shook with your moves, but don't even act like you're singing.

If you can sing, you can sing anything, but if you can't, you just can't, that's it.

I agree 100%. You are not a musician if you can't sing your own songs live.

Some people are performers, not singers, and that's perfectly fine.

I'd rather have more Paula's and Janet's than a bunch of mediocre vocalists standing there and boring me to death.

To each their own.

True. Id appreciate my fave sounding off key and shook rather than be DECEIVED

When will you give the certain artist you're referring to a damn break, okay? Especially when there are certain artists out there that are flat as **** and the only thing that comes out when they open their mouth is air on top of the absolute lack of any dancing abilities yet they get praised to the heavens and back? If you're gonna do something, do it the right way, not because you are obliged to!

Calm down, greg - it's just twitter pop music.

That's ok if you don't accept it, I do

It's true. Not everyone wants to pay money to see someone live who is lip syching through all of their songs.

If you claim to be a singer then sing.

But they need to, to avoid mess but if they fail even wehn lip-syncing then that's their fault. I mean, all you have to do was sing thru a record, like you have no reason to botch that up!

Agree 100% with the OP. We don't need fake trash.

according to who?

Don't do Beyonce like that.

Its an insult to my intelligence when Britney wears or holds a mic

Imagine people still complaining about Britney Spears - let's be honest, this is who the OP is talking about - lip syncing in 2016

This is ridiculous. All singers have to take care of their voices, so if they have to lip-sync well let them. As a singer, I can imagine you don't want to end up in a hospital for your voice fearing you might not be able to sing as good as then just because you sang live at all times. I'd rather lip a bit and sing some live to eventually keep my voice, in stead of singing live all the times and being in a hospital every tour because you have damaged your voice.
