American Idol winner Scott McCreery was left red faced after flubbing his lip syncing during the famed Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and RadarOnline.com has the embarrassing video.

The 18-year-old missed his cue when his voice was heard singing The Trouble With Girls and he was a couple seconds behind in his miming.

The teenager was forced to quickly play catch up, but his mistake was obvious to the estimated 50 million people watching the show on TV.

While all artists lip-sync for the parade in New York, the other stars including  Cee Lo Green, Mary J. Blige and Avril Lavigne all performed without a glitch.

This isn't the first time Scotty messed up for a national event. During the World Series he forgot the words to the Star Spangled Banner!

A singing slip-up on Thursday's episode of The X Factor caused outcry as millions of viewers heard contestant Leroy Bell singing before his microphone was even up to his mouth.

The blunder occurred while the finalists were performing a group number together, but still spawned speculation that the other performances could be faked, which Fox quickly addressed.

"All survival songs are performed live, with just a backing track," an X Factor representative said in a statement to TheWrap.com.
