Beyonce Made Decision to Lip Sync National Anthem at Inaugural
Said she didn't have time to practice with the Marine Band.
Beyoncé decided herself to lip-sync the national anthem at President Barack Obama's Inauguration because she got to Washington just one day before the performance did not have time to rehearse with the Marine Band, according to a report.
"Because she didn't have time to rehearse with the Marine Band, she decided to use her recording with the Marine Band," an unnamed Marine Band official told CNN late Monday. "It was all Beyoncé."
