Clearly knowing she would be quizzed over the lip-synching controversy by the packed room of journalists, Beyonce first addressed the matter by singing another rendition of The Star Spangled Banner- this one a live, unaccompanied, a cappella.
Beyonce has finally admitted that she didn't sing live during her performance of the National Anthem on Inauguration Day. The 31-year-old singer explained that she sang over a pre-recorded track - because she didn't have time to rehearse with the orchestra for the big day on January 21. Her admission came on Thursday as she attended a press conference in New Orleans ahead of her Super Bowl half-time spectacular on Sunday where, she insists, she will be singing live
Beyonce, wearing a very short white dress with open back, said: 'I am a perfectionist, I will practise until my feet bleed but I didn't get a chance. 'The inauguration was about the president I wanted to make him and the country proud. I decided to sing along with my pre-recorded track which is something that is common in the music industry.
'I always sing live, the inauguration was unfortunately a time when I didn't have time to rehearse with the the orchestra because I was rehearsing for the Super Bowl.
