Is performing while “alive” the same as performing “live”? Pop diva Britney Spears seems to think so as she recently took to press to clap back at ongoing rumors of playback.
As her tour of Asia continues to rake in the big bucks, the Grammy-winner sat down with TV interviewers in Tel Aviv to address murmurs of lip syncing. Yes, the topic is nothing new for the songstress as it has plagued most of her nearly two-decade long career, but it appears she has had it with detractors slamming her with the accusation she’s branded as “simply untrue.”
Hear her sound off below:

Britney:
“…because it’s really funny – a lot of people think that I don’t sing live… Because I’m dancing so much I do have a little bit of playback, but there’s a mixture of my voice and the playback. It really pisses me off because I am busting my ass out there and singing at the same time and nobody ever really gives me credit for it.”

The quote above comes less than a month after the ‘Toxic’ hitmaker was caught up in a lip-syncing scandal during a recent stop in Japan. See that by clicking here if you missed it.

The drags and gags write themselves
Dying lmaooo
Britney smoking that KUSH chile lol…her mic ain’t even on…remember when her mic got caught in her wig? Remember when her fans said she was lip syncing on Carpool? Homegirl probably lip syncs when she’s in the shower! But I’m gone!
They must have switched her meds again. She also thinks it was Selena Gomez concert that was attacked in London ??????
Stop lying! You only criticise her ’cause you know everything she does have a place in history while your favourite diva is trying 2 much and will be forgotten!
Knee’s mentally unstable. That’s what we will always remember her as. Poorthing is so medicated she out here thinking it was a Selena Gomez concert that was attacked in the UK.
Ma’am you No CHRISTINA AGUILERA!! ✌??
No she isn’t! Christina is occupied eating oreos and turning chairs to make a tour or an album… 😉
Well at least xtina was a success on “turning chairs”
wasn’t sh!tney on X FACTOR and flopped hard?? lol
and her last 2 albums flopped harder!! lmao
freakin delusional …….
Not a lot of stars get asked back after one season on any show— Christina does.
@mr.m Christina hasn’t had a hit album since 2006 so shut the f*** up lmao
@mr.m Christina’s last solo #1 on billboard hot 100 was Come On Over Baby in 2000 and you talk about flop?
LOOOL Check your facts Britney was invited back but she asked more 3M than they previously paid her and they refuse. It was her choice to leave 😉
ahahahahahaha you’re the one who’s delusional. When Britney was invited to be a judge she received 15M a record at the time, at that time (2012) Christina’s salary was only 10M! AHAHAHAHAHA
And FYI Britney Jean outsold Bionic and Lotus…oops she did it again.
Now. before ya’ll drag her back to the Mickey Mouse Club, keep in mind her daddy is her custodian bcause she’s legally crazy. We all seen them lip synch battle performances she calls concerts, we know better. Move along, nothing to see here…
?
I love you Britney and I love your music (minus Britney Jean, that album is a mess), but you’re delusional.
I only give credit to people who can actually “sing”….
Proof that she still have some mental issues.
I just had a deep sigh before clicking this post…
What’s her talent again?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
DIAMOND ALBUMS
150MILLION RECORDS SOLD
SOLD OUT TOURS
ONE EPIC RESIDENCY
…
do you want more?
Yeah , live vocals and the truth
OMG JBYSABDHSA
Nobody can give you credit for singing live if you don’t sing live
She should buy a few Janet, Madonna, and Beyonce tour DVDs and learn what it means to sing lightly mixed with lip-sync mixed with playback of newly recorded vocals. No one cares if you lip-synch or sing lightly but you have to give a good show. You cannot lip-sync to album tracks and think that is the current trend.
poor thing lol…she really is a sweet kind person but……..
she’s not lying, she does sing along with the track and the mic is usually on a liiiiiiiiiiiiitttttle bit but let get real Britney
I guess this could be more believable if she wasn’t still singing to album tracks from 1999. Okay Brit, it’s your world. I got my Lol’s that I came for.
I mean if it was 2004, she DID sing me against the music live on trl. Or her mic feed was super loud. Hey maybe she is singing live, BIT her mic is on 10% and her playback is at full blast. I mean, you HAVE to sing to lip the words. I guess she does SING, but she isn’t having it loud enough for us to hear
Truth be told, some of you are crazier than Britney. And more miserable too.
This girl is clearly having a mental health relapse! Somebody go fill this b****’s prescription, please!
And nobody gives Beyonce credit for being a mathematician…
1 + 1 = 2 yaaas lol
I’m really here for the comments.
90% playback + 10% sing = Lipsync b*tch
Is she that medicated that she actually thinks she is singing live? I still remember when they had to create a new category for her on X-Factor as she couldn’t cope being around adults
GIRL lol
Lol i love Britney, but she almost never sings live and if she does the playback/ autotune is so loud, she could be saying “yall dumb af” and no one would know lol… Its ok your a performer not a super songstress, you sing with the music is about as far as it goes and thats ok we love you anyways… But dont lie boo…
Gurl, even your fans don’t believe that crap. Your delusions are running DEEEEEEP!
But she does sing a little bit with the playback you can obviously hear her sometimes ….but she still slays some of these current pop stars on a stage tho lol
These comments in here are too much for my health HUIDAHIDNSJAK
Britney please…
