In reply to zania.

You say it like the fact he performed "live" (I put that in quotations, because Beautiful People was NOT live) on a handful (and I mean, handful as in LESS THAN FIVE) of occassions justifies him to lipsync for the majority of his live performances.

Last I remember, real singers didn't lipsynch. James Brown could very well dance and sing live.

Chris Brown fails to live up to hype of being a "singer". Performer? More circus act than anything.
