Chris Brown, Justin Bieber, and Usher took to the stage at the 2012 Billboard Awards. The most dreadful part of Chris‘ performance was him lip-syncing… particularly to the wrong parts. At least lip over a track that doesn’t sound like it was made in the studio.

But Chris did a great job dancing, as usual. I really wish he would get to promoting that album more. But as a friend made clear, he’s steering clear of interviews since his last one at GMA didn’t end well.

Justin Bieber of course performed his new hit single Boyfriend. I think he was lipping as well but then there were parts where I heard him and gave a blank stare. And his “swag” still makes me uncomfortable.

Usher performed Scream and somewhat struggled throughout the performance. Dancing leaves him exhausted.

Check out the performances after the jump and post your thoughts. It seems like I wasn’t the only one upset with the lip-syncing. Pink had an issue with it as well. Do you think she was talking about Chris? And this just in from my white boyfriend, Joe Jonas. I can’t believe the “shade” was so thick, but Chris of course caught it.

Usher performed his latest singles from his upcoming Looking 4 Myself album Climax and Scream. I didn’t mind the Scream performance so much until I realized his background singers were syncing to HIS background vocals, like… what was the point of them, then. And then his scream… let’s just say he loss his stamina just before his climax.

The Climax performance had to be the worst. I just hate that damn falsetto. I need him to sing as if his balls have dropped. That’s not sexy. And if his voice really goes up an octave during his climax… man. You could hear all the strain when he screamed “knees.” The titles of his songs are just so befitting for jokes.

Justin Bieber covers Billboard Magazine with Usher who has a solo cover of his own. The special edition is for the Billboard Music Awards, which Justin and Usher will perform at on May 20th.

Last night during the season final of The Voice, Justin Bieber performed his lead single Boyfriend from his upcoming album Believe, which debuts June 19th. Justin imitates his “swag” from his Boyfriend video which premiered last week. In the performance, he struggles to hit the falsetto note that he did in the studio, and his dance moves still don’t impress me.

Usher gives us another track, Scream, from his upcoming album, Looking For Myself, which hits stores on June 12th. This new track apparently goes back to the dance sounds Usher has tried before with his recent music, making fans frown and discouraged from buying the album.

I can’t give a good review on the track since my speakers on my Mac aren’t letting me be great (they better not have broke cuz I”ll be pissed.) Take a listen to the track after the jump and post your thoughts.

After the debacle of Usher’s album title be falsely reported as “Sharbenmengenser” – or whatever – the singer announced his new album title will be Looking For Myself and it’ll debut on June 12th.

After listening and seeing the video for his lead single, Climax, I more than likely won’t be buying this album. Will you?

Here’s Usher’s new video for Climax. I felt as thought the video was too ‘lukewarm’ for such a mellow song. He kept saying “we reached a climax” but… there wasn’t one.  And I’m a need for Usher’s hair to still not be so dry looking. If you’re going to go natural, get with the moisture and detangling. Let me begin the natural hair posts for my blog and tweet him some links.

Enjoy and tell me what you think.
