Beyonce is known for her incredible singing voice and live shows. However, yesterday on one of the world's biggest stages she lip-synched her way through "The Star-Bangled Banner." Beyonce was performing at President Obama's inauguration when she decided to use a pre-recorded studio version of the National Anthem according to the New York Post.
“All music is pre-recorded for the ceremony because there are so many eventualities and conditions that day,” Kristin DuBois, a rep for the U.S. Marine Corp Band told the Post. “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 (sic) reason why.”
Kelly Clarkson also performed at the inauguration. She sang "My Country 'Tis of Thee" without the help of a backing track a spokesperson for the U.S. Marine Corp Band told TMZ.
"We all know Beyonce can sing," the rep added. "We don't know why she chose to use the pre-recorded track."
What do you think of Beyonce's decision to lip-synch at the inauguration?

50 Cent stopped by Howard Stern's SiriusXM show today. 50 recalls growing up being a fan of Michael Jackson and being blown away when he got a call from Mike. The G-Unit mogul would later appear on the song "Monster" from MJ's posthumous album Michael.
Howard asked if Chelsea Handler was any good in bed and Fif had an interesting answer.
"Tell her I call her gator, she'll know what I'm talking about," 50 said. "Because you gotta wrestle a gator. Chelsea's a sweetheart."
50 later judges a hilarious rap battle between Sal The Stockbroker and Howard 100 News reporter Jon Leiberman.

Anna Burns Welker is feeling the heat today after her ill-advised comments about Ray Lewis.
As we previously reported, Anna, the wife of New England Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker, launched a personal attack against Lewis Sunday after his Baltimore Ravens beat the Patriots to advance to the Super Bowl.
"Proud of my husband and the Pats. By the way, if anyone is bored, please go to Ray Lewis' Wikipedia page. 6 kids 4 wives. Acquitted for murder. Paid a family off. Yay. What a hall of fame player! A true role model," Anna wrote on her Facebook wall.
Anna has since apologized for her comments, but that hasn't stopped her from being roasted by football fans and some members of the media across the nation.
