You realise all the songs in glee where recorded and they’re are lip syncing she does sing it but not like that

[@DeeL3]

@@isabelladiffley8141 the only performances that included lip synching were usually competitions and then the stuff like singing around the city. Pretty much all of the performances done in the classroom were sang live and then they just do the playback during editing. The cast and crew have gone on record about this so many times. Amber sang this live.

CourtneysNoneExistingLife It's at the Savoy Theatre in London, previews begin this month with the official opening in December & is set to play until March 11th 2017. Amber has been in London at least a month, I think. I hope she has the time of her life, would love to see her performance but it's not in my future. :(

[@Cowboy_Carter06]

Amber was the most powerful and versatile singer on this show. She honestly should’ve been the main character, instead of Lea but... unfortunately Amber didn’t fit the image. They needed someone white, skinny, and that can sing and well, Lea was the best option to them I guess. Amber’s still vocally better, though.

[@maelyzzz_]

amber auditioned for mercedes sooo

[@humptydumptysatonawall4100]

She sounds better but Leah has the better technique imo

[@amyamesburg4657]

Although I agree in theory, the whole point of Rachel's character is that she is a ditzy stuck up vain white girl who is so obliviously naive that she signed up for the african american heritage club and didnt even realize how incredibly offensive it was because she can't see beyond her own self image and experiences. Amber, although she is an incredible actress, is much too sweet to come off like that. Leah however......
