在奧巴馬就職典禮現(xiàn)場演唱美國國歌的碧昂絲昨日被指假唱。負(fù)責(zé)為整場演出伴奏的總統(tǒng)專屬樂隊(duì)發(fā)言人周二對(duì)媒體表示，在碧昂絲演出前他們接到緊急通知，稱她要用之前預(yù)錄好的版本。這位發(fā)言人說：“并不是碧昂絲不能唱。我們都知道碧昂絲能唱。我們也知道海軍陸戰(zhàn)隊(duì)樂隊(duì)能演奏。”她指出，當(dāng)日其他演出均為現(xiàn)場真唱。當(dāng)日下午，海軍陸戰(zhàn)隊(duì)方面卻改稱，因?yàn)楸贪航z之前未跟樂隊(duì)排練，在這種情況下讓其現(xiàn)場演唱是不明智的，所以才會(huì)使用預(yù)錄好的演唱版本。海軍陸戰(zhàn)隊(duì)發(fā)言人還表示，樂隊(duì)方面沒有權(quán)利對(duì)碧昂絲是否真唱做評(píng)判。碧昂絲方面尚未對(duì)此作出任何回應(yīng)。大型演出活動(dòng)一般都會(huì)提前預(yù)錄以防現(xiàn)場出現(xiàn)意外狀況影響轉(zhuǎn)播。2009年奧巴馬第一次宣誓就職典禮中，大提琴家馬友友就因?yàn)槭彝鈿鉁靥汀菲鳠o法正常演奏而“假奏”。

On Tuesday, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Marine Band told news outlets that Beyoncé had lip-synced at President Barack Obama's inauguration.

There's no question Beyoncé's rendition of the national anthem was a roaring success. The mystery: Was it live or lip-synced?

On Tuesday, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Marine Band told news outlets that Beyoncé had lip-synced at President Barack Obama's inauguration. Master Sgt. Kristin duBois said the band was notified at the last minute that Beyoncé would use a prerecorded voice track.

But by late afternoon, the Marine Corps backed off that statement.

Marine Corps spokesman Capt. Gregory Wolf said that because there was no opportunity for Beyoncé to rehearse with the Marine Band, it was determined that a live performance by the band was ill-advised. Instead they used a prerecorded track for the band's portion of the song.

"Regarding Ms. Knowles-Carter's vocal performance," Wolf's statement continued, "no one in the Marine Band is in a position to assess whether it was live or pre-recorded."

A representative for Beyoncé did not respond to requests for comment.

DuBois declined to answer further questions. Earlier in the day, she told The New York Times that the rest of the inaugural performance was live and they did not know why a recorded track was used for the national anthem.

"It's not because Beyoncé can't sing. We all know Beyoncé can sing. We all know the Marine Band can play," she said.

Kelly Clarkson's representative said she sang live to perform "My Country, 'Tis of Thee."

All inaugural music is prerecorded in case weather conditions or other circumstances interrupt the program.

The use of a recording is typical in big events. In 2009, cellist Yo-Yo Ma was questioned about "hand-syncing" for Obama's first inauguration. Ma said instruments weren't functioning properly in 19-degree weather.
