Lindsay Lohan, always ahead of the curve in all of her endeavors, wasted no time in getting herself embroiled in a lip-syncing controversy, "mouthing' her way through a couple songs from her new album on Good Morning America yesterday. Did a hangover make her sleep through her record label's preparatory seminar, "Backing Vocals 101: You're Supposed To Sing Over Them A Little"? This latest incident, probably staged for publicity once Lohan's people discovered that no one actually lynched Ashlee Simpson, immediately sent her reps into "damage control" mode:

"Lindsay sang completely live, the band was live and the background singers were live," maintained Kim Jakwerth, spokeswoman for Casablanca, Lohan's label.

Translation: "The band had never held instruments before, Lindsay didn't sing a word, and even if she did, she couldn't possibly be expected to know the words because she was lip-syncing to the B-side track from Tiffany's I Think We're Alone Now. The album drops today, holla!"
