Kid Rock is making the media rounds after this weekend’s Turning Point USA alternative halftime show, doing the one thing every artist should be doing when their big show is a huge success: Insisting he wasn’t lip-synching.
But in a video shared on social media Tuesday (and during a Fox News appearance last night), Kid Rock swore his performance wasn’t lip-synched, just super out of sync.
In addressing the accusations, Kid Rock confirmed that his performance was pretaped, and said that the show’s production crew struggled to properly line up his prerecorded audio and video.
In fact, Kid Rock swore, if he had actually been lip-synching, it would’ve looked a whole lot better.
My halftime performance was pre recorded but performed live.
