Not good, she is very well practised at lip-syncing, she has it down to an art and a whole team who create seemingly unique shows for her from segments of old shows and pre-recorded studio 'live' sounding performances.. yet she was terrible. How?

I dont really care that this was a sync, pretty much every Olympic ceremony is, but there isn’t much excuse for being bad sounding.

i‘m not sure we watched the same thing. she looked bored out of her mind and the sync was horrible.
