Video captured Katy Perry lip-syncing not once but twice at the NRJ Music Awards in France, as it became obvious she was not lined up with the track. What happened was Katy was performing “Roar” and very obviously lip-syncing. That’s not what makes this noteworthy, as it happens to a lot of stars. But what happened here is that, incredibly, the host of the show walked in, stopped the whole performance, and made her start over from the beginning! Using her real voice. It was just really awkward … Katy Perry Lip-Sync Fail Needless to say, Katy Perry looked embarrassed, and didn’t sing that well, but after being humiliated in front of thousands like that, and being sick? Hard not to feel for her. She’s a performer, and a brand, and a great girl, but not a live vocal standout. Never has been … and to be put on the spot like that? Just bad. And not Perry’s fault, in the opinion of THG. What do you think above the above clip? Discuss!

Marshall and Robyn make a scary pair. We’re not ordinarily in the business of featuring trailers, since they’re, quite frankly, bullsh*t. However, things were too intriguing in the preview clip for Eminem’s “The Monster,” featuring Rihanna, to ignore. See more at: Hip Hop Wired
Is Beyonce lookin’ like a THOT who is too hot for tots? Are The Visuals To Beyonce’s New Album Inappropriate For Her Younger Fans? Via News SHE released her latest album by uploading tracks and videos straight to iTunes, claiming she wants to speak ‘directly to her fans with no filter’. And it seems that Beyonce has got her wish. Within hours, hundreds of fans slammed the star’s record for its X-rated lyrics and ‘pornographic’ videos in which she twerks and dresses scantily. On social networking sites, the 32-year-old singer was called ‘vile’ and ‘disgusting’ for the provocative tracks, including songs titled Blow and Drunk in Love. Some users questioned whether she was a fit role model to millions of young fans. The star, who rose to fame in girl band Destiny’s Child, has often campaigned for women’s rights. But fans said she should now be ashamed of herself for following in the footsteps of Rihanna and Miley Cyrus, who have shocked viewers with their erotic music videos. The parent and family morality groups are out in full effect protesting King Bey’s twerkin’ and jerkin’ Vivienne Pattison, of pressure group Mediawatch-UK, said last night: “This is such a shame to see because Beyonce didn’t get to where she is by jumping on the same bandwagon as Rihanna and people like that who we expect to be explicit and controversial. “She was the one we always thought we could count on to set a good example and keep producing music with powerful messages that empowered women and girls. “And I would have thought that a star of her magnitude wouldn’t need to do something like this. “She has sold out and it’s really sad. Like it or not Beyonce is a role model and she needs to take responsibility for that. Especially as a mother herself, it’s very surprising that she would do this. She added: “This is now on YouTube and children can see it. “It’s not like parents can protect their children by not buying the album. It’s there, on the internet, for anyone to access and as a parent that is incredibly worrying.” Do you think Bey “pushed the envelope” in the trash can? Are her new videos going to corrupt our children’s purity?
