    Beijing Olympics: Faking scandal over girl who 'sang' in opening ceremony

    Chinese officials have admitted deceiving the public over another highlight of the Olympic opening ceremony: the picture-perfect schoolgirl who sang as the Chinese flag entered the stadium was performing to another girl's voice.

    The girl in the red dress with the pigtails, called Lin Miaoke, 9, and from a Beijing primary school, has become a national sensation since Friday night, giving interviews to all the most popular newspapers.

    But the show's musical designer felt forced to set the record straight. He gave an interview to Beijing radio saying the real singer was a seven-year-old girl who had won a gruelling competition to perform the anthem, a patriotic song called "Hymn to the Motherland".

    HMMM.....we've been punk'd!

    hmm...
    I think it is no problem. Because it is not a game but a ceremony.
    Though two girls are poor a little ....

    Too bad for the real singer - she's just as adorable - the teeth give her the childish charm!

    Haha, yeah, I saw this this morning on the front page of our newspaper. I do understand why they would want to CGI the footprints.

    It was mentioned that they did do the footprint fireworks, though. We just weren't watching the actual thing.

    The other girl's cute enough. My newspaper said it was because she had crooked teeth and one of the decision makers wanted a flawless image. Otherwise, it was unanimous in favour of the singer.

    yes and the commentators on NBC were saying that the girls from the China Gymnastic team have fake ages and that they are younger than they say they are b/c they look young... *sigh*
