Have you ever wondered if any of the American Idols do any lip synching? Well guess what? American Idol producers have admitted that there is some degree of lip synching on the hit FOX talent show. A rep for FremantleMedia North America which produces the show told the New York Times in an email that the contenders occasionally sing to a track but not when they’re vying for votes. The spokesperson told the paper “Due to extensive choreography and to balance their voices with open mikes against a screaming audience, the Idols do sing along to their own prerecorded vocal track during the group performances only.” According to the paper, the rep insisted that the contestants absolutely do not use a backing track during their solo performances.
