Marian Wright Edelman: Still Hungry in America
"At 12 years into her career, the last thing someone should be questioning is her vocal ability. That would be like questioning if Kobe Bryant could shoot a jump shot. The vocals were obviously altered."

First, I think Beyonce is an amazing performer but it kinda makes you wonder if she is actually lip singing at her concerts. If you think about it, look at how much she jumps, flops, hops and dance all over the stage for two hours straigh and still able to not sing off key. Just my opinion

try dancing around your house for two hours singing and see if you may need to lip sync.........as long as she is lip syncing her own voice what is the big freaking deal? you people need to get a life!

Although Beyonce is talented...she is a 'pop' artist, she can't sing R&B, she doesn't have that soulful sound.
If anyone has ever heard Joss Stone's version of Etta James' "At Last"....she can sing Beyonce under the table.

Lol, good point Lady T!!. I think many stars lip sync-and it may be for the best.For example,Mariah Carey.She sounds winded and off-key when performing live.Simply ,no one wants to hear them huffin n puffin ,hence ,studio magic. If I were them-I'd take the easy route too.

Figures, Beyonce and Father Knowles would respond? Nobody can't talk bad about Beyonce not having a voice and can't sing. They aren't tryin to hear that ISH. They have to defend because, she and pop's thinks that she is the BEST SINGER IN THE WORLD. It is all in your head girlfriend! I am so sick and tired of this Beyonce crap. They didn't have to respond if it wasn't true, but apparently it was true because they did.
Again, Beyonce is OVERRATED TO THE MAXILLA!

DAYUM, I'M LOOKING AT PICS OF BEY. HAS SHE HAD A BOOB JOB? IT SURE AS HELL LOOKS LIKE IT. I BELIEVE SHE SINGS IN AND OUT OF HER SONGS ON STAGE. I AGREE, SHE DOES TOO MUCH PHYSICAL MOVEMENT AND IT NEVER HARDLY OUT OF BREATH. COME ON, THEY ALL HAD TO LEARN THAT ALL THAT JUMP'N AROUND AND TRYING TO SING AT THE SAME TIME LEAVES YOU BREATHLESS AND PANTING LIKE A HORSE AT THE FINISH LINE.

They all lip sync sometimes, but that guy who altered her voice said it was a hoax.

It's amazing how we believe the first thing that comes out of someone elses mouth to be believed as the truth. Look at Beyonce's track record and decide for yourself her vocal talents. As a young black woman, Beyonce (at age 26)represents beauty, class, intelligences, sophostocation, and a strong gifted ability. Qualities in which every black woman on this earth posess. Its a shame that we are also so quick to put our SISTERS down as well. I say, if you doing it, DO IT BIG, and open th door for women like me SHINE! Much love and success to you Bey...and remember: They "Hated on" Jesus! Holla
