Wang Lee-hom stands accused of lip-synching at a recent televised business show in Dalian, Liaoning province, where he performed three songs. Those in the audience pointed out his lips weren't moving but he could still be heard singing.

This sounds like lip-synching and looked like it, but the singer's company was insistent its star performer would never do such a thing, as he is so talented. The event's organizer, however, was quoted by SZHK.com as saying a CD of Wang's music was part of the mix because "the wind was so strong and the microphone wasn't working that well".

While this may sound like a storm in a teacup as many people just assume stars routinely lip-synch at performances, the issue has a serious dimension because the Ministry of Culture announced in 2008 it would revoke the licenses of performers who were caught lip-synching twice in a two-year period.
