The folks in the US media are doing it again with their “shock” and “dismay” of the use of 2 girls to sing and lip sync a solo performance at the Olympic opening ceremonies.

The Chinese, want a perfect show, decided that the best singer was not as “visually perfect”, that is pretty/cute enough to appear on TV. They decided to use a 2nd girl to lip sync while the first girl sang.

While this is offensive to all of us who aren’t pretty and i count myself one of them, it isn’t that surprising. This has been done in hollywood musicals for years. so the media outrage at this unthinkable behavior is either based on ignorance of the entertainment industry or outright decite.

Why not put the spin this way: 2 girls got to share a moment where they performed for, literally billions for people around the world, rather than just one?
