Britney Spears Lip-Synced During Her VMAs Comeback, Because She’s Britney Spears
Britney Spears never disappoints. When the pop star stepped on stage for her big VMAs comeback performance, she continued her storied history of tragic lip-syncing.
Observe, during her performance alongside G-Eazy, the voice blasting from the speakers at Madison Square Garden simply did not match the movements of Britney's mouth. Lip-syncing is common — and honestly, not a big deal — but after nearly two decades in this industry, Britney still can't seem pull it off.
Theories circulated online from loyal fans: Did she not spend enough time rehearsing? Was it hard to remember her own lyrics? Why even pretend to use a mic?

Britney gets paid millions to lip sync while drag performers do it 10x better, are exploited, and don't get the recognition they deserve.

Even before the performance began, fans expected a poor lip-sync performance from the "Make Me" singer. Hey, at least she's consistent.
"Something we've never seen before" nah britney we've seen you lipsync so many times girl..
