Yang Peiyi is the girl who’s voice was heard all around the world singing the national anthem of china. To be exact the hymn to the motherland. Yang Peiyi was the girl who sang, but it was not the girl who everyone saw on television. Yang Peiyi had pre-recorded the hymn and another girl, who is said to be prettier than Yang Peiyi took her place t sing in the opening ceremony in the Beijing Olympic Games. I saw a few photographs of Yang Peiyi, and the reason why she was not selected to appear in the games was because of her crooked teeth. Instead, Chinese officials set Yang Peiyi aside, and selected a prettier girl to do so. The picked Lin Miaoke to appear to sing the anthem. Yang Peiyi just recorded the hymn and Lin Miaoke, a 9 year old, just lip synced to the voice of Yang Peiyi. That’s really not fair to the little girl Yang Peiyi. Chinese officials have admitted to deceiving the public over another highlight of the Olympic opening ceremony, this time it was the picture-perfect schoolgirl who sang as the Chinese flag entered the stadium was performing to another girl’s, Yang Peiyis, voice. I don’t like these things, what are the Olympics about? Deception, corporate sponsorship and Westernization? I don’t mind the Chinese wanting to get everything perfect for the Olympics but they must do it without loosing direction. Yang Peiyi was set aside because she wasn’t pretty enough. Lin Miaoke, who had no talent aside from the fact that she looked pretty took the part. Miaoke is from a Beijing primary school, has become a national sensation since Friday night, giving interviews to all the most popular newspapers. Yang Peiyi is probably staying home and crying. The truth came out when the person who dealt with Yang Peiyi, the show’s musical designer felt compelled to set record straight. He gave an interview to Beijing radio saying the real singer was a seven-year-old girl who had won a gruelling competition to perform the anthem, Yang Peiyi. The girl, Yang Peiyi, might have a perfect voice but was unsuited to the lead role because of her buck teeth. So the night before, they recorded the anthem and Yang Peiyi singing and they picked Lin Miaoke to stand there and look pretty. Very dishonest and unfair to Yang Peiyi.

I think we (the media) and the bloggers should shout
Yang Peiyi’s name on every post we can.
Her picture should blanket the world.
She is a child..and an adorable one and it is a disgusting statement that she is not pretty enough to represent her country.
Let’s make her a family word

I did, thank you for the pointer. By the way, the statement may be disgusting…but that is the reason the Chinese had the other girl do it. Thats what they admitted.

I’m crying right now… I did not knew it before. What a disgusting thing they did? I must say that humans can never suck so low. This has nothing to do with the Olympic Spirit!!! So, for them, perfect means to lie and cheat! Na… I won’t ever go to China! Hahahah1 At last the guy came clean about the truth. At least, now we know why Spielberg left “the event”.
