Selena Gomez accused of lip-syncing at AMAs

She's just debuted a new look at the 2017 American Music Awards in LA.

But while Selena Gomez has been praised for her hot new look, her performance seemed to lack a similar sizzle.

Moments ago the 25-year-old took to the stage at the Microsoft Theater to perform her new single, Wolves.

But her highly anticipated show, in which Selena was sporting fake blood, was met with disappointment by fans on social media who accused the singer of lip-syncing.

The performance comes after Selena recently had a kidney transplant, due to the chronic auto-immune disease she suffers from called lupus.

Selena, who is rumoured to have reunited with her former flame Justin Bieber after splitting from her beau of almost a year, The Weeknd, hit the stage for her first major appearance in over a year.

Despite the disappointment at the "lip-synching" many fans defended the It Aint Me singer, who has just been named the Billboard Woman of the Year, against the criticism.

"Girl has been through enough this year with her health, poor thing," one fan said. "Leave her alone."

"She just had surgery leave her alone," another said. "I wanna see you sing after having surgery and other things happening in your life."
