X Factor's Fleur East slammed on Twitter for 'miming' her way through performance of new single on Lorraine

'Great 'live' singing there': X Factor's Fleur East slammed on Twitter for 'miming' her way through performance of new single on Lorraine

She rose to fame on The X Factor, and was praised for her note-perfect vocals as well as her energetic dancing abilities.
But Fleur East has been slammed on Twitter for allegedly miming her way through a performance of new single More And More on Friday's episode of Lorraine.
Despite the online criticism over the stage stint, a representative for the singer has told MailOnline that 'she absolutely wasn't miming'.
Was she miming? Fleur East looked incredible as she performed on Lorraine on Friday morning, but she was criticised on Twitter for allegedly lip syncing

The 28-year-old was her typical effervescent self during the flawless set as she danced her way through the catchy song.

And fans of the daytime TV show couldn't help but comment that, instead of singing live, she looked as though she was lip syncing along to the pre-recorded track, and they took to the social networking sight to air their frustrations.
Leading the way with the complaints was‏ @RocknRollRidley, who fumed: 'Has just seen the worst attempt, if that's what I could call it, at miming by Fleur East... Dear God!! #lorraine.'
Wow-worthy: There's no denying the 28-year-old's performance of new single More And More was note-perfect, but a representative has denied she was miming

And @WugglesPie added: 'Poor lip syncing from Fleur East on #Lorraine.'
The tweets came in thick and fast, with @32_32_C commenting: 'Great 'live' singing there #Lorraine.'
Twitter user ‏@gaynor225 couldn't help but find Fleur's flawless performance a tad suspect, writing: 'How does #FleurEast manage to look and sound so damn perfect this time in the morning #lorraine.'
Slammed! Plenty of people took to Twitter to comment on Fleur's performance, with many claiming that she was miming her way through it, one user remarking 'great 'live' singing there'

Is @FleurEast miming?? #lorraine please say she's not,' wrote @rockthrough, before complimenting the new music, adding: I love this tune tho, its a jam.'
And @JadeFeeney opined: 'Worst ever lip syncing from Fleur on #lorraine this morning! #embarrassing #fleureast.'
Despite Fleur's alleged lip syncing of More And More, the general reaction to the song was positive, with plenty of fawning comments over the follow-up to her debut solo hit Sax.
Positive! But there were plenty of gushing, happy comments over Fleur's performance, many people loving the new hit

The singer looked as sexy as ever, making the most of her enviably toned and silky thighs as she rocked the stage with a couple of backing dancers on the mid-morning programme.
Fleur - who came second place on 2014's X Factor behind winner Ben Haenow - donned a pair of tiny, figure-hugging denim hotpants teamed with a matching denim shirt tucked into the waistband.
And earlier on the show, Fleur sat down to chat to host Lorraine Kelly, looking effortlessly cool in a cream silk blouse and edgy ripped skinny jeans and heels.
She also looked gorgeous in yet another ensemble as she left the ITV studios in London, covering up in a white oversized coat teamed with red wedge heeled trainers.

The busy star, who is storming ahead with her music career after ten years of working hard to break out in the tough industry, is also keeping herself fully-booked with plenty of other projects.
In addition to being a singer and top-notch performer, Fleur has also branched out by launching her own fashion range.
The starlet is the latest in a string of celebrities to collaborate with Lipsy, following the likes of Kim, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian, who teamed up for their sell-out Kardashian Kollection previously.
Fleur will also follow in the footsteps of former Coronation Street star Michelle Keegan, whose line with the brand has also flown off the shelves.

All is well! If she was at all fazed about the criticism on social media following her performance, she didn't show it
