Default Beijing Olympics Faking Scandal

Beijing Olympics: Faking scandal over girl who 'sang' in opening ceremony - Telegraph


Quote:
At the last moment a member of the Chinese politburo who was watching a rehearsal pronounced that the winner, a girl called Yang Peiyi, might have a perfect voice but was unsuited to the lead role because of her buck teeth.
Just one more reason not to watch the Beijing Olympics!

How is that different from modern day stars who lure audiences to big venues, but actually playback on stage?

It's Milli Vanilla vs Ashlee Simpson


At least it was Ashlee on the track. Not someone else taking credit for her voice.

In addition to that.....there's also the gymnasts issue. Does anyone believe all of these 'women' are 16 or older? There are records that show at least three of them being only 14. The IOC is happy though, because official documents provided by China show they're 16.

Here's a picture I can't hotlink.

Those girls aren't 16. I doubt they are even 14. I don't watch sports if I can help it and I definitely do not watch the Olympics.
