China's Opening Ceremony Lies

Filed under: Zportz

reddress.jpg

There was no need to fake!

Beijing's Olympics Games Opening Ceremony would have been brilliant without some of the faking shiz that's now coming to light.

When we heard about the fake fireworks bruhaha, in our minds we gave China a 'pass' because of the 'safety' excuse issued.

But the latest scandal that has emerged has wound us up!

Remember that little girl in red (left photo) who 'sang' and captured our hearts?

Well, turns out she was lip synching!

Apparently, the 'real' singer (pictured to the right) wasn't cute enough to perform.

A Chinese official said, "The main consideration was the national interest. The child on the screen should be flawless in image, in her internal feelings, and in her expression."

It just doesn't seem right for a government to be all "Hollywood".

The U.S. would have let a less cute, better singer take center stage at a national event, right?

    PERVEZ, I couldn't agree more with your comment:

    "It's like Milli Vanilli calling Ashlee Simpson out for not singing live… "

    LOL

    it reminds me of this korean movie: 200 pounds beauty

    i think the fake little singer is cute indeed, but its too much … look at her face, it looks like she's been trained to do her cutie, lol ! no offense, but its true … asian peoples is all about cute, and i freaking hate it ! ( im asian by the way if any of you were about to front )

    MY FAVORITE PART OF THE CHINESE OFFICIAL QUOTE…
    .
    "THE CHILD SHOULD BE FLAWLESS … IN HER INTERNAL FEELINGS"
    .
    THEY SHOULD JUST GO AHEAD AND "BRAINWASHED"!!!

    That is so stupid, yet not surprising of China. Weirdly enough, I do remember finding the girl's lypsynching kind of odd.



  11. 211

    milli vanilli anyone?



  12. 212

    Who gives a shit!! With all the animal and human abuses going on over there this is what were all pissed about!?

    Bull SHit people just mad cause China little old developing China showed them up.

    oh shut up perez, you're seriously pissing me off these days. It wounded YOU?? what have you got be hurt about? the little girl agreed to it… i think it was good of China to come clean with the truth and give the real girl who sang it credit. It's probably not cuz she wasn't PRETTY enough, i mean makeup can make anyone look pretty these days (EVEN YOU PEREZ!), it was probably because she didn't have stage presence or couldn't pull off singing in front of millions and billions of people. Remember, the little girl on the left has experience with performing. and lip-synching happens all the time as you know.



  16. 216

    dude they all look alike



  17. 217

    That girl is a fake ass bitch.
