Ever since I saw Sinead O'Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U" (atrocious spelling the fault of Prince) video, I have decided that video lip synching is really okay.
It sounds to me like during what you all have described, he tried the sulking approach. The thing that drives everyone else up the wall about it is that really, he was behaving perfectly. No one can say to him, "stop doing exactly what we told you to!" One could say, "stop being so obvious about it", but I can think of a multitude of flippant responses to that guaranteed to make a person start ripping out hair.

i thought they were supposed to lipsync to videos also. Didn't freddie lipsync to the live performance with monserrat caballe also, i can't quite remember where i heard that. Can anyone tell me if it is true? thanks
yes he did on the Barcelona songs, and Freddie was really pissed, according to Phoebe's book
Do you remember the reason behind it? Was it because he was ill? That was 1989 right? Thanks
"Freddie was really pissed, according to Phoebe's book"
He was pissed because the playback tape was running slightly too slow (or too fast?) which the audience didn't notice though.

Well, because Queen was such a visiually pleasing band to watch (their great lights, outfits, decoration, and physical involvement) not singing live might not take too much from the performance, it would be dissapointing, but bearable.
what Mr. Scully said :)
ALL artists lip-synch to pop videos!!
FFS, how else can they do it?
Thought everyone knew that?
It's all stop start in some of the most 'un-acoustic' environments.
How on earth can they sound like a studio recording?
Even some scenes in movies require studio over-dubs from the actors over their own voices.

I've noticed on the begining and mostly on the song of Impromptu on the live at wembley dvd he is lipsyncing with the song.
what the hell does 'lipsynching' mean?????
His appearance at the "Vier Gegen Willi" - Show was also playback and he tried to compensate it by dancing around like mad and totally overdoing his emotional mimic.
Lipsynching means miming the words that are being sung without actually singing them.
I don't mind miming. I quite like it actually.

REM didn't do it until 1991, when something convinced Michael Stipe that it wasn't cheating.
That, however, is beside the point.
One lip-synching session isn't going to kill anyone. It may be cheating, but we can throw the blame for that on whoever thought up that particular doozy.
