* In 1999, the satirical Italian band Music/ElioELeStorieTese (Elio and the Tense Stories) once had a performance on the Italian music program 'Festivalbar'. The band was told to lip-synch their performance, and that their instruments would not be plugged in. Though this was common practice, this didn't sit well for a band known for playing its music live. So what did the band do? Half-way through their song 'Discomusic', the entire band froze in place, all while their song continued playing with vocals to a confused crowd. And they stayed like this '' '''for the rest of the entire performance''' '', even as they were carried off at the end like mannequins.

* Lindsay Lohan was caught lip synching on an episode of ''Good Morning America'', where the music itself was performed live with an on-stage band but she noticeably was too late coming in with one line and could be seen wincing (and the broadcast then cut to two children who had noticed exchanging a look).

** This often extends to even the NationalAnthem performance. Most famously, Music/WhitneyHouston's cover of The Star Spangled Banner in the [[https://youtu.be/uAYKTMQl7MQ 1991 game]] was her lip-syncing to her pre-recorded voice, and despite being hailed as one of the best renditions ever performed, she still garnered some flak for not singing it live. She eventually responded to the criticism by performing a live rendition during that year's "[[https://youtu.be/hn9ckYb7SJw Welcome Home Heroes]]" HBO special.

* In an episode of ''Series/TheAndyGriffithShow'', Barney joins a chorale group. His singing is ''terrible'', but he's so happy to be there that nobody has the heart to kick him out. So they hatch a scheme with Andy's help. They tell Barney he's going to sing a solo, but that his microphone is super sensitive, so he has to sing almost silently. Meanwhile, the professional tenor they hired to sing the solo is backstage, singing into a live mic while Barney mouths along. Barney never catches on, but he leaves the group at the end of the episode, so it winds up not mattering.
