Ashley Tisdale-

Did you see her perform on NBC's Rockerfeller Center Holiday Special last night? Great show, except she looked really bad LIP SYNCING! Her song was still playing and she was "singing" but her lips weren't moving. She must have lost her audio feed and she just stopped mouthing the lyrics while the song continued. It looked really silly.
