Reports are suggesting that Beyonce may have lip-synched the US National Anthem while performing at President Barack Obama‘s second inauguration on Monday, January 21, 2013.
A United States Marine band rep Kristin DuBois disclosed to Page Six that ‘all music is pre-recorded for the ceremony because there are so many eventualities and conditions that day’.
‘We performed, live, the band. But we received last-minute word that Beyonce was going to use the pre-recorded vocal track. Those were the instructions we were given. We don’t know what the reason why’, Kristin DuBois said.
The Washingtonian reports that “it was evident that the band wasn’t actually playing during the song.”
Beyonce had however posted a a photo to her Instagram account of herself holding the sheet music to “The Star Spangled Banner” in a recording studio. This might confirm the pre-recording.
Others who performed at the Inauguration include Kelly Clarkson and James Taylor.
