Hilary Duff is the latest singer to get caught out lip-synching during a ‘live’ show.

The Duffster suffered an embarrassing mishap during a recent concert when she began singing before her backing-track kicked in.

The singer joins an illustrious list of lip-synchers, topped by Ashlee Simpson who famously resorted to doing a gig when her backing-track started playing the wrong song during her spot on Saturday Night Live.

Early this month, it emerged that Miley Cyrus uses a body double during live performances whilst she makes costume changes.

Actually the part where the mic is off, is where she welcomes the crowd. She doesn't start "singing" for another 20 or so seconds when she's down from the stairs.

That's not lip syncing, that's a sound man who forgot to turn the microphone on at the right time. Now, I'm willing to bet she does lip sync quite a bit, but this video doesn't prove it.

I think all singers have to lip sing at one time or another because of reasons unbeknown. It's not their fault that they get sick, loose their voice, etc. Further more, you pay ALOT of money to go to a concert. They're just trying to make it better for you by not cancelling and then not giving you your money back.

Hilary is not lip syncing, if she was she would appear embarrised when she had started but the singing hadn't. So clearly Hilary was just shouting out to the crowd.
