[quote=BARONTWANGLE,316483]People mime in 99% of big live performances. It is not the miming which is the issue here (Sarah Brightman and Liu Huan were both miming too) but the fact that the person wasn't miming to their own recording. I'm sure China could have found a girl who could sing as well as look cute in a red dress. However, it is an insignificant detail at the end of day, and the western media only picked up on it because they had to find every fault they could. I see absolutely nothing wrong with the pre-recorded footstep fireworks. The director is a film maker - what did they expect? The show as a whole was fantastic, and will be used for years to come as a yard stick to measure others by. The closing ceremony (even disregarding the London embarrassment) wasn't in the same league. There were a couple of good bits, but it was sloppy and boring compared to the opening. I think people should steer clear of songs - we see people singing every day - so what.[/quote]
