OMG! Someone please tell me you seen justin lip syncing on American Idol earlier! He was dancing with the background dancers on the stage with him and he put his hands in the air to clap and while his hands were in the air the voice came back on and he hurried up and put the mic back to his face. LOL!
(By the way this isn't indented to insult anyone, I just like finding stuff like this because it's soo funny.)

I noticed it several times and YES he was lip syncing. I was offended. AI is about live singing talent (imo). This kid has so much 'usher echo' in his songs it's pathetic. I have always wondered what his voice REALLY sounds like. Can he sing and if so, why the heavy dependence on electronic enhancement?
That mic thump before he played the drums is so easy to do. What I find laughable is that the producers think these little tricks they can play will fool everyone into thinking it was a live performance. pwwwt. puleeeze. If you think it was live, I have news for you. Your an idiot.

That little douche was totally lip syncing! You can tell first off, because he has the mic right on his lips. When you do that you hear Paffs, Taffs & Poofs from letters like P, T, B, etc. He supposedly said plenty of words that would have done that, but didn't. Second the quality was too smooth and clear for how much he was turning and bouncing around while he was singing. You can't maintain that kind of singing unless you just stand still. Try it at home; hold a note and hop around at the same time. You'll see what I mean. Third he put the mic down while his track was still going... can anyone say Ashlee Simpson???? Justin Bieber is our new Ashlee Simpson! To make it even better American Idol has more viewers then SNL! That means 50+ million people watched him screw up his lip syncing! LOL! What a little Douche!
BTW Justin if your reading this... German does not mean Basket Ball! It's a %$#ing language spoken by Germany! The word German was around long before Basket Ball was invented, Duh!

Yes, I saw that too. Definitely lip syncing. The other big clue was that the mix sounded better - you could actually hear the music unlike when the contestants are performing.

I watched American Idol tonight and I agree with you it did seem to be that Justin Bieber was lip synching. Thats the norm these days amongst most of todays pop stars(not all of them) lip synching. No surprising there. The music industry has its fair share of lip synchers

Yes, I noticed. The mic wasn't near him but his voice was heard! xD
I think a lot of singers do that because they are so focused on the choreography that they'd be too out of breath to sound good if they were really singing. Maybe he sang parts of it himself, but that portion was not Live singing... LOL

When he dropped the mic to do the drums you could here the thump through the sound system. I don't think he was lip syncing.

I absolutely saw it, rewinded it on my DVR and truly....right when he went "Baby Baby...." the mic was at his waist. I reported it first, though, on my facebook page.

Boy, he learned the business fast. Now it would really be funny if he wasn't singing and it is some one else. OMG!

sometimes when he performs he takes the mic away while his background singers sing, and then he comes in when he wants

Justin Beaver is a failure of a human being who needs to hit puberty and quit polluting the music industry.
