Hailee Steinfeld Is Singing 'Flashlight' Live in 'Pitch Perfect 2' Bellas Audition Scene

Hailee Steinfeld happily poses with a fan for a picture while out in New York City on Friday afternoon (July 10).

Speaking with B96 Radio recently, the 18-year-old actress opened up about her role in Pitch Perfect 2 and whether or not she was really singing “Flashlight” live.

“So in the movie, when I auditioned for the Bellas, I sing a song called ‘Flashlight,’ which my character wrote. I pre-recorded my audition scene…,” Hailee explained. “But I could not match the sync for the life of me.”

She added, “I’m a bad lip-syncher. So I ended up singing it live and that’s what’s in the movie.”
