Eric Church slams Garth Brooks' lipsyncing at the CMA Awards: "F*** that. I didn't like his excuse at all"
Country singer Eric Church is in not in the mood to mince words. He says exactly what he thinks, especially when his contemporaries in the singing business decide to go down the path of lipsyncing. In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, the singer commented on the infamous Garth Brooks performance at the 2017 CMA awards saying, "f*** that". Brooks was the winner of the Entertainer of the Year award that evening and Church felt that what made the incident worse was the fact that he had bagged such a prestigious award the same night. "So the winner of the biggest category of the night lip-synced in the biggest moment on the show? F*** that! And I didn’t like his excuse at all," he said. He also added, "We don’t use machines. We use instruments."
