I don't see what the big fuss is, considering it's not just China that thinks only beautiful people should be on tv.

It doesn't bother me overly if Madonna or Kylie lip synch to their earlier performances (although it does indicate a lack of talent or confidence). But a performer who lip synchs to another person's performance is taking credit for the work and talent of someone else. That's why Milli Vanilli sank and what I find sad and wrong about the Beijing story.
