Is Connie Fisher Miming In The Sound Of Music?
There have been some damning articles on the internet over the last few days accusing Connie Fisher, winner of the BBC’s hit show, ‘How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria’, of miming during her recent Sound Of Music shows.
The articles all stemmed from a report in the Daily Mail saying that due to recent throat problems, Connie has been singing along to a backing track and almost miming high notes in order to save her voice.
I personally can’t see the problem. Connie obviously isn’t medically able to sing alone at the minute, but doesn’t want to drop out of the show while her career is still in it’s infancy. It’s not as if she can’t sing, we all know she can. She is certainly no Milli Vanilli! I hope the tabloids see fit to give the girl a break, and let her recover at her own pace, she’ll be back on par in no time.

Oh my gosh…I’m sorry but that is absolutely ludicrous. If someone’s in a film, it’s easy enough to be dubbed, but not live in the London Palladium in front of thousands of people…out of the question. I love connie and I don’t believe she would mime her dream role. She’d take a rest before she had to get that desperate!
