Michael Buble has come to Britney Spears defense as the controversy surrounding her lip-synced shows in Australia, blasting Australian journalists for their harsh criticism of Spears and suggesting that they need to lay off the singer.
He says, “You’d think she killed someone. As an artist, and a human being, some of what has been written about her is so nasty. OK, she lip-syncs her show, people know that, they make the decision if they want to go and see her do that.”
Earlier this month, Spears was forced to respond and squash rumors of a mass walk-out during one of her concerts when the press reported that fans left angry and disgusted over the realization that she was not singing live. Buble says that he doesn’t feel as though Spears should be ‘bashed by the media’ because he, too, lip-synchs his concerts, referring to himself as the ‘Milli Vanilli of jazz.’ Has anyone ever really heard Britney sing live? Without the help of the magical-music-making-machines behind her, its not a pretty sound. Trust me, lip-synching for her is the way to go!
