RAPPER 50 Cent has suffered an embarrassing blow at the BET awards, when he was caught lip synching live on stage, watched by millions of people.

Entertainment site MediaTakeOut.com report that 50 Cent was caught out from the beginning of his performance, after being ceremoniously lowered onto stage on a podium.

The "What Up Gangsta" rapper clearly lip synched the initial chorus to the hit song "Amusement Park."

After the chorus ended, he tried to continue mouthing the songs lyrics. But unfortunately for 50, DJ Whoo Kidd played the instrumental version.

I guess he could've blamed it on a microphone not being turned on lol

I never would've expected a rapper to be caught lip syncing..

Why would a rapper lipsync... they don't even sing, they just talk along to a lousy beat.

BET viewers selected "Amusement Park" as thier choice for 50 Cent's performance at the awards, however the G-Unit rapper had several snafu's on stage, including skipping his entire first verse which some speculate was due to technical difficulties. As he closed the number, 50 mumbled, "Vitamin Water...it doesn't matter any more," referring to the recent sale of Vitamin Water's parent company Glaceau to Coca Cola, which may help put him on track to earn $100 million in 2007.

Well it looks like it was just the chorus that was synced.. but the rest wasn't

Who cares if he lip synced the course...

I mean... tons of r&b and hip hop singers don't sing the chorus because they either:

1. Yelling out to the audience to involve them
2. Focus on dancing
3. The background chorus track sounds better

IMO.

what a misleading topic, it is just a instrumental but with the vocals of the chorus you can clearly see there was mic issues in the beginning, his mic wasn't on so he took of his shirt during the chorus then the mic still wasn't on when he needing to lead off, then the mic comes on and he had to wait to cue again that's all that happened. plus what were hear at home is slightly different we get direct audio of the background music.

This guy's lyrics are weak and soft anyways. Plus, he wasn't even shot NINE times like he claims.
