Where they can? If that means coasting for unimportant performances or
unfriendly venues in order to be energetic and in good voice for
important events, maybe.
But blowing off SNL for the RMA? SNL is a once-in-a-lifetime kind of
gig, not a warm-up date or an out-of-town tryout.
AFAIK SNL is not a make or break performance.

It can be.

I;ve enver been impressed by
any of the performances I've seen there. Usually the sound is ****ing awful
and the performers are coasting. There have been some exceptions, but
generally, no big deal.

You can tell who has singing talent and who hasn't.

I don't doubt it. Most pop singers probably have not been trained how to
sing anyway. I'd rather have someone cancel rather than fake it.

Some can sing, others are just riding their looks and managing agents
talents. I would feel cheated if I paid big bucks to see a performer and
they just lip synced through the show.
