Rosé and Bruno Mars lip-synced at MAMA 2024, is there evidence, is it true?

After Lisa, it was Rosé and Bruno Mars' turn to be accused of lip-syncing during their performance of "APT." at the 2024 MAMA Awards. This caused a stir among fans of the two famous stars.

On the evening of November 22, Rosé and Bruno Mars became the center of attention when they appeared at the 2024 MAMA (Mnet Asian Music Awards). On this occasion, the first live performance stage of the global hit "APT." was also announced, although the two artists did not sing on the spot but recorded it in advance.

However, the performance still "caused a storm" and was widely shared on social networks. The Korean-American duo received many compliments on their singing, performance skills, and stage presence. However, many people accused Rosé and Bruno Mars of lip-syncing, arguing that the performance was pre-recorded, so they also recorded their voices and added them.

Not stopping there, they even tried to prove that the "Australian rose" and "the Martian" were lip-syncing by sharing MR-removed videos to highlight both of their raw vocals. Naturally, Korean fans were quick to refute the accusations.

On the famous Korean forum The qoo, the topic defending Rosé attracted nearly 30,000 views and fans continuously left hundreds of enthusiastic comments defending the female idol and her collaborators. Many netizens also "joined the battle" when pointing out that although it was prepared in advance, the performance was still recorded from a live stage, with a live band and a real audience in the US, so there was no way it could have been lip-synced.

Furthermore, both Rosé and Bruno Mars are known for their live singing abilities, so there was no reason to do such an unprofessional act. Fans believe that the controversy over the performance may have stemmed from jealousy, as the duo received a lot of praise and attracted significant attention. Fans also noted that hateful comments directed at the "Australian rose" seemed to increase after the success of her solo hit.

"It's ridiculous. Both of them have powerful voices and are famous for their live singing skills"; "Since APT. became a hit, the number of hateful comments aimed at Rosé has increased a lot", "Even Bruno Mars is suspected of lip-syncing, there's nothing left to say"; "Bruno Mars lip-syncing? Are they idiots?"; "I don't think normal listeners would make this kind of accusation. Maybe fans of idols who lip-sync are jealous"; "Both of their voices are amazing", "They're incredibly good. Their harmonies at the end are amazing"; "People keep complaining about them not singing live, but both the performance and the improvisation were perfect. I really like both of them"; "Rosé and Bruno used a live band, what do they mean by separating the music? Or is it to prove that the two singers really sing well live?"... are comments left by netizens.

It's true that lip-syncing wasn't the only controversy surrounding Rosé and Bruno Mars' performance at the 2024 MAMA Awards. Many expressed disappointment when the two artists didn't perform live, but instead played a pre-recorded video.

The biggest shock was for the audience who bought tickets to the event at the Kyocera Dome baseball stadium in Osaka, Japan. Several videos circulating online showed the crowd falling silent as the performance they were waiting for was just a video played on a big screen; a complete contrast to the cheers and applause when the couple took the stage to receive the Global Sensation award earlier.

Japanese fans even criticized the 2024 MAMA organizers for deceiving them, for spending thousands of yen just to get an experience that was no different from watching TV at home. However, many others were excited to see the "unbelievable stage" and cried because the live performance was better than Rosé and Bruno Mars' recording.
