Brazilian singer Anitta faced criticism after her recent performance at the May 31st show. Anitta performed a medley of her hits on Friday morning as part of the show’s Citi Summer Concert Series. Anitta planned this performance to showcase her recently released album, Funk Generation.
Lip-Syncing Accusations
During her performance on May 31, Anitta sang several of her popular songs, including “Frita.” However, fans quickly noticed that her mouth movements did not match the words of the song. This discrepancy led many to believe she was lip-syncing.
The track sounded very clear and pre-recorded, which further fueled the suspicions. Fans expressed their disappointment and frustration on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.
Fans’ Reactions on Social Media
The accusations of lip-syncing sparked a wave of reactions from fans on social media. One viewer sarcastically commented, “Love lip syncing.” Another stated plainly, “She lip synced.”
Some fans were more critical, questioning the purpose of having such performances if the artists could not sing live. “Listen, I support new artists, and I love when they have performances on the Plaza, but if an artist can’t actually sing their songs, why even bother?” one fan tweeted.
Others were more harsh in their critique. “It’s beyond comical how awful this is. While I appreciate the presence of artists on the Plaza, I find lip-syncing unacceptable. Awful,” another fan wrote.
“She needs to brush up on her syncing skills; she was awful,” added another.
Performance Highlights
Despite the controversy, Anitta delivered a full set during her appearance. In addition to “Frita,” she performed her 2022 hit “Envolver,” as well as “Lose Ya Breath” and “Cria de Favela.”
Anitta’s Style on the Plaza
Anitta’s performance was not the only thing that caught the audience’s attention. She also made a fashion statement, keeping cool in the New York heat with a short denim skirt, a leather vest, a belt, fishnet stockings, and boots. She wore her brown hair down in waves behind her back, completing her stylish look.
Anitta’s appearance on the Friday 31st show has sparked significant debate among fans regarding the use of lip-syncing during live performances. While some fans were disappointed,.
