Lip-syncing exposed on television due to holding microphone upside down.

Sa Dingding, 32, a Chinese folk singer and songwriter, performed at the Lantern Festival Gala broadcast on CCTV 15 on the evening of February 22nd. The performance began with a graceful dance routine by the singer and dancers. However, Dingding accidentally reversed the microphone, and her sweet singing voice rang out as she held it upside down. Realizing her mistake, she smiled awkwardly, quickly reversed the microphone, and continued her performance professionally as if nothing had happened.

Dinh Dinh realized she was singing while holding the microphone upside down.

She turned it over.

And they still sing as usual.

After the performance, Ding Ding wrote on her Sina Weibo social media account, which has 1.6 million followers: "Next time, I will practice my performance skills more thoroughly." However, this post was no longer available until the morning of February 23rd; it is unclear whether it was deleted or removed by Ding Ding herself.

The incident involving Ding Ding's performance also went viral online, sparking mixed reactions. Some weren't surprised by the lip-syncing phenomenon, writing, "How many singers in China don't lip-sync? It would be news if Ding Ding didn't lip-sync." Others suggested that Ding Ding intentionally made the mistake to imply she was asked to lip-sync by the show's director. "It was definitely intentional; she was holding the microphone, and an experienced singer would know exactly where the microphone is!" one netizen commented.

Lip-syncing wasn't uncommon in major performances in China in the past. However, in August 2009, China enacted a law allowing for penalties against singers who lip-synced, deeming it an act of "deceiving the public." This law came after intense public debate surrounding the incident where young Lin Miaoke lip-synced her friend Yang Baiyi's voice at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics. Miaoke had a charming appearance while Baiyi possessed a beautiful voice, and the combination was intended to create a perfect performance. However, a segment of the public was angered, feeling deceived when the deception was exposed.

In January 2010, China fined two female singers 80,000 yuan (approximately 280 million VND) for lip-syncing during a performance in Sichuan province.

Tát Đỉnh Đỉnh rose to fame after winning a singing competition organized by China Central Television in 2000. At the age of 18, she released her debut album titled "Dong Ba La" under the stage name Zhu Peng and won the title of "Best Dance Singer". She began composing music.

In mid-2007, she released her second album, "All Things Come into Being". In April 2008, Tat Dinh Dinh received the BBC Radio 3 World Music Award for the Asia/Pacific region. In July, she released her first single titled "Holding the Spear".

At the end of 2008, she embarked on a tour around Europe, visiting England, France, Spain, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Germany, and continued to receive praise from the press in these countries.

Ding Ding's fourth album is "Heaven and Earth United". Currently, the singer has released six albums and remains very active.
