More Olympic fakery

NY Nerd already disclosed that NBC's "Chinese Expert" is a Kissinger shill who wants to promote McDonald's more than he does good will amongst men and that some of the Chinese female gymnasts are like 10 years old.

So it was no surprise to read in today's paper that one of the young performers not only lip-synced "The Ode To The Motherland" but she didn't even sing it originally.

Apparently the girl who sang the song, was "Too Ugly" to be seen on T.V.

BEIJING — A 7-year-old Chinese girl was not good-looking enough for the Olympics opening ceremony, so another little girl with a pixie smile lip-synced "Ode to the Motherland," a ceremony official said — the latest example of the lengths Beijing took for a perfect start to the Summer Games.
