of the National Anthem at Monday’s Inauguration Ceremony was apparently lip-synched, although there are conflicting official versions of events.

On Tuesday, Master Sgt. Kristin DuBois of the U.S. Marine Band, which performed with Beyonce, informed reporters that the singer had decided to sing to a pre-recorded voice track rather than perform live.
But things got murkier late Tuesday, when a Marine Corps spokesperson backed off the original statement, saying that because the pop superstar had not rehearsed with the band, it was determined that the band’s pre-recorded track should be used during the performance
for President Obama.
It should be noted that Wolf did not deny the reports that Beyonce had indeed lip-synched to pre-recorded vocals.
Meanwhile, representatives for Beyonce and the Inauguration organizers have not responded to requests for clarification.
News that Beyonce may have lip-synched surprised many, especially given the fact that Beyonce emotionally ripped out her earpiece at one point during the performance.
It’s standard procedure for all the music tied to the festivities to be pre-recorded in case conditions including poor weather complicate things for the live performers.
What you think ?
"IT was 45 degrees yesterday in DC.Plus, EVERY OTHER performer in every other inauguration has managed to sing the Star Spangled Banner live, including an unknown and untrained sharecropper's daughter named Juanita Booker for Ronald Reagan's Inauguration in 1981.People need to stop enabling and mollycoddling this ersatz celebrity.She can't hold a candle to Aretha Franklin who was able to sing the National Anthem LIVE in much colder weather four years ago."
Its also the fact that she accepted compliments for it. She never meant for anyone to know, which makes it even worse.
