American Idol admits Pre-Recorded voices were used on Group Numbers

A former American Idol told the news last week that he thought the contestants lip-synched on group numbers. Later, a spokesman of the show told that Pre-Recorded voices were indeed being used.


This is a pretty big announcement, because all the group numbers who we thought were great, are really fake performances.

“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". This is what the spokesman told the New York Times.

I never thought the performances were pre-recorded, but luckly the solo performances are 100% real.
