lipsynched

Mimed the vocals

Lipsynched is the past tense of lipsync, meaning to move the lips in synchronization with prerecorded audio rather than singing or speaking live.

Performers lipsync at concerts when vocal demands are too strenuous, or in music videos where live recording is impractical: She lipsynched the entire performance and nobody noticed.

Also spelled lip-synced.
