Is hands down some of the best ever in a musical biopic.

I'd agree to that. Como La Flor was really the only song I noticed glitches in. When she'd hand the mic over for the crowd to sing...you could still hear Selena's voice as clear as day but JLo was smiling or something...very small blink and you miss it type of thing.

They probably could only shoot the scene so many times so she did great...practicr for her performances nowadays.

I agree. It was perfect.

I agree completely. Lopez really aced every aspect of her performance and the lip-synching was a big part of that. The one thing that can remove the viewer more than anything from a musical biopic is poor lip-synching. But this is among the very best examples of such.

I have to give her props for that. I was young when I first saw the movie. I'd never heard her or Jennifer Lopez before, so I thought she was really singing. When I heard them both, it became clear that she wasn't actually singing but she did good.

I thought her lip syncing was bad at the part when she was singing "I could fall in love" in the studio.
