People weren't in much of a giving mood on Thanksgiving.
Many twitter users didn't "give" singer Rita Ora a break after a difficult time matching her lip-syncing to the music while riding on a float in the Macy's Day Parade. With temperatures dropping well below freezing it's no wonder the artists would lip-sync. The announcers were having trouble simply talking, but that didn't stop people from slamming the Let You Love Me singer on social media.

Wouldn't it seem that those who don't lip-sync often aren't as good as those who do it all the time?
People realized it wasn't Ora's problem to fix

Of course legends don't even fake it.
