Is it Real or is It...Lip Synched?
What you don’t know can’t hurt you. Or can it? The British Musicians Union is pressing broadcasters to disclaim when a musical performance is being lip-synched. We’ll look at this issue – just a day after what has historically been a lip sync marathon on this side of the pond: the Super Bowl Halftime show. Also with us will be author and singer Jen Trynin. She’s written a memoir about her surreal experience of being signed to, and promptly dropped by a major record label.
