According to reports, the little girl who sang at the 2008 Olympic opening ceremony in China was lip-synching. Apparently, the girl who provided the actual vocal tracks that were used was not as "flawless" as 9-year old Lin Miaoke and organizers believed using her as the face of the music was 'in the best interests of the country.'
News of this charade came to light that a fireworks display was faked. An official for the games admitted that, due to poor visibility, previously-recorded footage was used.
