does anyone else think that leona could be lipsynching during this performance? i think so. i think it has been done very intelligetally, as she is singing along to what sounds like a live track, lets face it she does have simon cowell behind her. I’ll explain my reasons: the microphone positions are not in line with those of a live performance. also at one split second when the camera is up close she ’stops’ singing and then carries on. and during the long notes her body positions are not the same as she would normally stand as in all the performances i have seen she kind of ‘crouches’ forward, i assume to create more power in her voice. anyway i just get the feeling something isn’t quite what it seems. don’t get me wrong, leona CAN sing and i don’t have a problem with giving the girl a break. i think maybe she is saving her voice (possibly for american idol).
i suggest you carry out some research before coming out with bold and mildly ’stupid’ comments like the one above, please remember this is a FAN site so you are expected to have a certain level of knowledge on the topic prior to commenting. Leona has lip synched several of her performances since the launch of her album. for example on GMTV whilst promoting both bleeding love and better in time/footprints in the sand, both performances were lip synched. And then there was the BBC sports relief performances which were both lip synched. I must reiterate for those who don’t seem to grasp my chain of thought, i am not in any way criticising leona’s talent and certainly not her ability to sing live, in fact I applause her for being a breath of fresh air in what is a predominately ‘pro lip synch’ music industry. however i feel that it would be far better for leona to perform live whist on such high profile shows in the US. we all know that leona loves to sing, so if such decisions to lip synch are coming from leona’s management i suggest they have a re-think.
Well, IMO she is singing live!
I’m not an expert on microphone positions lol but I recorded this performance and you can clearly hear her breathing at some point! Plus she changed the end of the song!
Anyway, live or not live, that was a great performance! great stage presence too! I love hearing this song with a live band! =)
Sorry for my english if there are mistakes! I’m french :p

Amazing as ever. To ANYBODY who was in the slightest bit sceptical about the talent Leona has can now go and bury their heads in shame!
Amazing performance. Keeps these hits coming simply amazing.
The #1 artist in the world today. I am still amazed why it took a talent show to find this amazing girl!

Leona never ever sing ‘LIPSYNC’ because she doesn’t want to disappoint her viewer and fans. And take a note she will never ever do ‘LIPSYNC’ at all.

Sure looks like lip-synching on Ellen show today. That is how I ended up here. I googled Leona Lewis and lip-synching and guess what!
Did Leona lip sync on last nights’ American Idol
