The ‘Lip Sync World Championships’ (LSWC) can be described as 'karaoke on caffeine' or 'a version of the Euro vision song contest without the singing' where upon contestants delve into the abyss of abstract performance art miming a musical performance (sing, interpretive dance, etc) to backing music.

For many, Lip Sync really all began when video killed the radio star & the introduction of popular music group ‘Milli Vanilli’ who rose to international fame on the strength of their hit singles and compelling stage presence, but will be remembered most for their unauthenticity.

Regardless of its origins, Lip Sync is an art form & an intricate part of the entertainment industry utilised during film clip production, movies, choreography, stage rehearsals, shopping centre & TV appearances, etc, etc.

Lip Sync is used as often as proactive face cream by many artists including the pioneers of the art form ‘Milli Vanilli’, through to modern day disciple’s & alleged offenders such as ‘Ashley Simpson’, Britney Spears & even ‘Fifty Cent’.

A brief overview of judging criteria includes precise or unique interpretation, showmanship, technique & interpretive dance/movement.

Sensational prizes including a cash prize pool is up for grabs along with the priceless prestige of the World Champion title which will be worth its weight in rehab & liposuction to any Lip Sync devotee.

The ‘LSWC’ competition is open to solo, duo & group performances.

Break a leg!
