Beyonce backlash hits the West Coast

Radio stations in Los Angeles and Las Vegas have been bashing Beyonce all day for lip syncing the National Anthem and one announcer on KIIS FM even called Beyonce the biggest fake since Milli Vanilli. Most of the callers agreed that Beyonce made a huge mistake. It's not so much that the callers were against lip syncing, but thought it was wrong at a national event.

If you haven't already heard, Beyonce's performance of the National Anthem, which some liked and others thought was horrific, was prerecorded and auto-tuned to death. Ever since it became a headline on the Drudge Report, Beyonce has been receiving quite the backlash.

It's amazing that people are just now accusing Beyonce of being fake. It is well known that she takes songwriting credits for songs she never knew existed and is a Photoshop expert when it comes to magazine covers. All this doesn't bode to well for Beyonce's Superbowl performance on Sunday.

Personally, I have heard Lady Gaga, Madonna, and Britney Spears lip sync and have never been offended. However, this is the presidential inauguration. This is a huge event. Not only did Beyonce make a joke out of our country, but she made a joke of herself as well.
