See, the REAL singers didn't need those audio ear amplifiers in their ears because they were that skilled. Phenomenal performance, one of the best voices and talents in music.

This proves what i always say: when you’re REALLY talented, u don’t need pyrotechnics, 20 dancers, and special effects. This is the most stripped down performance I’ve seen on a awards show. Ms. Mills was all alone onstage. The band and background singers weren’t near her. She took them to church and belted out her song and killed it. All live no syncing!
@anastayjah7152 жыл бұрын
Pretty sure this was a backing track. The backgound "singers" looked more like actors. They were not singing. I'm not taking away from Stephanie's skills because she's one of the best to do it but, this was one of those Soul Train type lip syncs.

The audience looked like they were asleep, and the all of a sudden they all start clapping to the beat with no expression on their faces. The show’s producers must have noticed how awkward it was that they were sitting there half dead looking, and motioned or signaled them to clap. They are the worst audience and if they can’t appreciate Stephanie’s vocals I don’t even know how they got tickets to this event.
