John Mayer Defends Britney Spears' Lip-Syncing

Britney Spears Circus tour lip-sync

John Mayer is coming to Britney Spears' defense after the pop star was criticized for lip-syncing during recent Australia concerts.

Mayer posted on Twitter Sunday night, "If you're shocked that Britney was lip-syncing at her concert and want your money back, life may continue to be hard for you."

Disgruntled audience members slammed Spears, 27, in Australia's Daily Telegraph for her pre-recorded "Circus" performance. Said one concertgoer to the newspaper, "It was a waste of $200 -- I could have got four pairs of shoes for that."

The Australian tour promoter told the paper that Spears is "aware" of the outcry and, "she's extremely upset by it."

Her manager, meanwhile, blames the criticism on a local journalist's review of the show.

"It's unfortunate that one journalist in Perth didn't enjoy the show last night," he posted on Twitter. "Fortunately the other 18,272 fans in attendance did."

Of course she lips-syncs, what fool didn’t know that? She has no real talent. Can’t even remember words to her own crappy songs!

Um, I don’t think he was defending her…. He later tweeted “There is no dicount for stupidity”

I don’t think that he’s DEFENDING her, he’s just saying that EVERYONE knows that she’s not a true performer by not doing her shows live and that people who bought tickets thinking otherwise must not be very smart.
