Oops! During a “live” performance at New York’s Rockefeller Center to celebrate the annual lighting of the Christmas Tree, the R&B group Boyz II Men were revealed to be performing to a back ground music track that included vocals. Yes, it appears the pantheon of alleged lip-synchers has grown from Milli Vanilli, Ashley Simpson to now, Boyz II Men (doing a little hip hop swing.) Watch the embarrassing video below.

After performing, host Natalie Morales tossed to British pop star Charice, who was just about to start her song when, lo and behold, Boyz II Men started “singing” again. The kids on Twitter are all probably typing LOL!
