Eminem
Pulls an Ashlee on SNL

(antiMUSIC) A week after Ashlee Simpson was
caught using a pre-recorded vocal track on Saturday Night Live, some are
accusing rapper Eminem of doing the same thing. "Fox & Friends"
co-host Mike Jerrick said Sunday morning on Fox News that it appeared Eminem
was lip-synching during his performance on Saturday Night Live. That
at one point the rapper took the microphone away from his mouth and viewers
could still hear him rapping.
A search of Google News service turns up
a story on Hundredpercenter Newswires blog spot by Malachy Joyce that says
"Eminem looked foolish, for not only lip synching, but doing a very bad
job of it.
"At one point, Eminem, who was out of synch
with the voice over, put his mic down near his hip and stopped rapping.
However, the song with voice continued."
One Eminem defender in the comments section
of that site said that Eminem wasn't really lip-synching, he just using
a backing track. A practice that is apparently becoming more and more common
with "entertainers".
Update: A reader sent in a link to a posting
on MJ Morning Show's website that features a video of Eminem's performance.
