Beyoncé’s performance of the national anthem at President Obama’s second inauguration on Monday was everything it should be. But was it actually live?
碧昂絲周一在奧巴馬的第二次就職典禮上演唱《星條旗》的表演讓人印象深刻，但是她真的是現場演唱么？
A spokeswoman for the Marine Corps Band said early Tuesday that Beyoncé only pretended to sing, lip-syncing the words to a backing track. What the listeners heard was a version she had recorded at a Marine Corps studio in Washington on Sunday night, the spokeswoman, Master Sgt. Kristin duBois said.
海軍陸戰隊樂隊的女發言人周二說，碧昂絲是假唱，只是對了嘴型。這位女發言人名叫克莉絲汀，她表示觀眾們聽到的歌聲其實是她周日晚上在華盛頓海軍陸戰隊的錄音室提前錄好的。
But by Tuesday afternoon, the Marine Corps had backed off Sergeant duBois’s statement, saying while the band had not played live, neither Sergeant duBois nor anyone else in the Marine Band was in a position to know if Beyoncé had sung the anthem live or not. Capt. Gregory A. Wolf, a Marine Corps spokesman, said the corps had determined that a live performance of the anthem was ill advised because its members had little time to rehearse with the singer.
但是周二下午，海軍陸戰隊就取消了這位女發言人的聲明，并說其實是樂隊假彈，女發言人和其他陸戰隊樂隊的人都不知道碧昂絲是否是假唱。格雷戈里，海軍陸戰隊的另一個發言人稱，他們決定現場演唱國歌也是有點欠考慮，因為他們的成員幾乎沒有時間和歌手排練。
A publicist for Beyoncé did not immediately return telephone calls and e-mail messages.
碧昂絲的發言人目前沒有作出電話或者書面回應。
