China Plans to Ban Lip-Synching |
|
Singers in China will need to be in top shape because the government may soon ban lip-synching from commercial concerts.
The Culture Ministry is gathering the public’s opinion on the issue of lip-synching, or “miming,” during performances. The ministry, however, has already written a draft for an amendment that would ban lip-synching. The draft states that concert organizers cannot allow singers to lip-synch and that performers cannot cheat audiences by pretending to sing on stage.
Performers caught lip-synching would also be punished by having their names released to the public. Anyone with two citations in the same year would have their performing licenses revoked.
China’s State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) has also demanded that lip-synching be banned on the TV program, “CCTV Spring Festival Gala.” This year, SARFT has insisted that the show have “real” singers. One official stated on the SARFT website that the program should use talented people who can sing well to stop lip-synching.
The popular show’s big New Year’s Eve program is usually full of singing and funny skits. Hundreds of millions of people watch the show. However, last year, people were upset by popular actress Zhang Ziyi’s poor job of lip-synching a song on the show.
The Beijing Olympic organizers were also sharply criticized for having a young girl lip-synch during the opening ceremony. The original girl who sang the song was replaced with a prettier girl who pretended to sing the song. |
