StrawberryBlond 14,861 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Because singing in that artificial way for years has ruined Britney's once good vocals. She was an amazing singer as a child, her jazz/musical voice was excellent, so mature and refined. But when she became famous, her team wanted her to become a popstar. Back in the days before the likes of Adele were popular, to make a pretty, blonde, slim white girl do soulful ballads was seen as a phenomenal waste back in the 90's. So, her vocals were replaced by that sexy, whispering, feline-like voice and it screwed up her vocal chords beyond recognition. Trying to sing one of her songs in this voice for even a short time is extremely difficult and taxing on the throat. Imagine singing like that everyday, for an entire set? So, knowing her issues, Britney's fans give her some slack. The fact she can still perform after her breakdown is celebratory enough, so to ask her to massacre her vocal chords live every second night would just be inhuman. Please note, however, that it's just Britney this pass is given to as she is a very special case. In any other circumstance, this would be a different story. You have to understand that Brintey comes from a time when you could work child stars like dogs and exploit them and not suffer any repercussions for it. Lipsynching is something she's just used to after being programmed into it as a child. Britney's like a child in lots of ways because she's never experienced life as an adult who is in control of their own decisions. It stands to reason that she's used to being told what to do and how to sing. It's all really sad but there was a time when we thought she'd die, so anything's better than the alternative.

PaperIz 7,346 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Why are your constantly negative threads excused? anyways I'm just glad she isn't DEAD. She could eat watermelon on stage while her music played and I'd still be happy she's with us, making music, putting on shows Human generated art Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess the people that watch her live have low standards. you're honestly so hateful. Britney's whole legacy is about having fun, so how about you lighten up? Sheesh...

BibleThisWay 4,370 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 It's honestly embarrassing. Brit's a nice girl and makes decent bops but I still can't fathom why people pay to see her lipsync and dance averagely. I'd be ashamed if I was Britney, it's really not acceptable and she doesn't even try to hide it, it's shameless Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
drinkmytears 2,332 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 If you guys don't like the way Britney performs just don't go see her? Its as simple as that. Her Vegas show has been extended time and time again, and they're working on a new deal for her there after her Piece Of Me residency ends. There's a huge demand for her because people want to see her and are willing to travel, book hotel, and pay big bucks for tickets. She's also on a soldout world tour that's rumored to extend, with dates in the UK and Europe to be added. Not to mention this is all Britney knows and she genuinely loves performing. Don't like it? Don't go. That doesn't mean others who adore her shouldn't. I think sports are utterly pointless but if it makes people happy, by all means buy a ticket and watch. Mind your own business.

River 116,744 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Because it's a robot FFS!! And robots can't sing so they have no choice to play the music in the background and let it move the lips and dance.. and u can actually see the limitations that this robot has while dancing.. the iconic lipsync from the other topic was a bug and the robot was lost.. The real dead Britney actually sang live while heavily dancing. So sploosh your juice all over me you Riverboy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotGeigh 109 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Because Britney started in a time where lipsyncing wasn't as uncommon or ridiculous and she used it a lot, whereas her peers have stopped/never did lip sync or just have started when lip syncing wasn't excusable anymore. I respect Britney so no shade but if she started her career today she wouldn't get far because of her lip syncing. It's not even convincing either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradley 59,063 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 She lip-syncs and she has to bear the consequences. The Grammys would never invite her to perform at their show nor nominate any of her albums. She also rarely gets awards that matter nowadays. The only award shows she attends these days are Radio Disney, People's Choice and Teen's Choice. I like her but what she's doing is really not respectable at all and I applaud the award shows panel for not rewarding her. I'd rather B-list artists like Demi Lovato to get nominated because at least she's a great live singer. Britney, however is the bigger artist and has better visuals and theatrics.

NCgaga 4,324 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Who excuses Britney? Like, that's not even a thing. She is known for it, and people who aren't her fans, typically redicule her for it. The fact is, she didn't start that trend. In fact, the heavy dancing performers of the past(Janet, Paula, Michael, Jlo, etc) all used lip sync during live performances. With the heavy dancing, people have cut them some slack. People who don't lip sync but still do impressive choreo (Xtina, Beyoncé, Gaga, Justin, Useher, Pink) they are the truest of performers, and are talented vocalists as well. Where I have had a hard time excusing Britney, is the lack of effort into her choreography. SHe has really cut back since 2004. She was the best dancer in the industry from the late 90s to early 2000s.. NOw, with the less dancing(even though it has improved) she doesn't have as much of an excuse to lip sync.
