Beyoncé sings live at Super Bowl press conference; explains inauguration

Last night, Beyonce opened up Super Bowl halftime show press conference with an amazing live cappella rendition of the national anthem after which she asked with a laugh, 'any questions'? The first question she was asked was if she sang to a pre-recorded track during the Inauguration. Beyonce admitted she had some help and explained:
Yes. I am a perfectionist. One thing about me is that I practice until my feet bleed. I did not have time to rehearse with the orchestra. It was a live television show. A very emotional show for me. One of my proudest moments. Due to the weather, due to the delay, due to no proper soundtrack, I did not feel comfortable taking a risk. It was about the president and the Inauguration and I wanted to make him proud so I decided to sing along to my pre-recorded track which is very common in the industry and I’m very proud of my performance.
"I will absolutely be singing live, (at Super Bowl). This is what I was born to do."
See the Super Bowl video after the cut...

  2. ''Absolutely be singing live'', that means she didn't sing live in the inauguration then. What's the crime in it by the way? All musicians have dier bad days. Next!

  5. everyone knows she can sing...she didn't need to come out and do that...beyonce is a performer, but still we can see a difference in the performance - the inauguration vs this press conference. The inauguration performance was flawless...

  6. Admitting she lip-synched at Obama's inauguration, half-time show performer says she's still 'very proud' of performance, I agree too. Bee Rocks!

  44. Singing along to a pre- recorded track is diffrnt from lip- syncing. Her mic was obviously turned on @ the inauguration. When u lip- sync, ur mic is turned off. So, she didn't lip- sync, she sang along! ℓ☺ℓ... Go, Bey!!

  49. Me I don't know ooo...I know it's done a lot in the industry but it's an inauguration and not a performance at a concert. Did Kelly Clarkson not sing live? I'm sure she's a perfectionist and works hard but really...if she wasn't going to sing live they may as well have just played the tape while she sat down. If it's so special to you that you're singing for a president you believe in why would you mime to it?

  52. Exactly, she was singing over the backing track, not lip synching/miming. How difficult is that to understand? Personally, I don't think she should have bothered responding to the haters, they'll always be out there doing what they do best.
