Jezebel accuses Gaga of lip syncing

Lady Gaga, too, has been outspoken in her scorn of the practice. She claimed, “I have never lip-synched and never will. Even on my worst day, I never will,” and, “I don’t think it’s cool to lip-sync.” There is nonetheless plenty of user-compiled evidence to the contrary on YouTube including footage of the star falling while performing “Poker Face” without any vocal interruption in 2011. There are also examples of Gaga performing hits like “Judas” and “Applause” on TV, in which the hooks sound vocally identical to Gaga’s recordings:

Maybe she’s singing along, but during the hook, the backing track is turned up high enough that any live element is of little consequence to the overall sound. You can call that whatever you want—there is a whole spectrum of outside vocal assistance pop stars call upon in live settings—but to engage in a practice where over 75 percent of what the audience hears is prerecorded and then claim repeatedly that you don’t lip-sync is disingenuous semantic maneuvering.

It's a televised program that has been filmed many times. They just took the best vocals from those takes and incorporated it with the best footage.

I need a winter candy apple and an iced gingerbread candle, both three-wick, or I'm boycotting.

There are several artists mentioned in the article that are apparently dragged into this so what's your point?

Personally, it pisses me off. You not only call her disingenuous, but that she's basically a liar when it comes to her performance art. Not to mention this website has a notorious history of bashing her. These are a some of the few moments where I wish Gaga would drag them :madge:

they're not lying. Esp. during the ARTPOP Era, her backing vocals have been SUPER loud.

That page is irrelevant, Gaga never lipsyncs

She's lip synced “Paparazzi" at the artRAVE multiple times though.
