437 LipSync

Here's fun loving weekend. There's lots of movies I want to watch, books and magazines to read, music to listen, dance to try, ideas to think. Already my curiosity is too large to fill within a couple of days, but I found a new kind of entertainment. LipSync battle.

Emma Stone and Jimmy Fallon's LipSync battle is incredibly fun to watch. I've not much seen such a combination of seriousness and playfulness like this. Of course they are both professional entertainers and no doubt they are performing pretty good, but their funniest works encourage people who are not much of a singer---that we have fun even though we cannot sing.

As you see, lip-sync is not just mocking. Expression, gestures and even dancing,  and calling attention of the audience, are all real performance with only one exception of the singing voice. If your voice is weak and you have no confidence in singing, through lip-sync you can feel like becoming any artist as you like. 

And good thing is you don't have to worry about your lip-sync skills, unless you wish to beat these talented performers. In lip-sync I think it's all okay, whether you do it over-exaggeratedly or seriously. Either way you become so funny and people will be pleased to "listen to" you.
