Huang Yixin, left, and Wei Wei, right, former college roommates from south China who last year found worldwide web notoriety with their low-quality, high-hilarity lipsynching clips, perform one of their famous numbers during a recording session in Beijing, China Tuesday, Dec. 12, 2006. Their mock music videos draw millions of Internet viewers and thousands of fawning reviews by fans who declare them hilarious, talented, cute, and hot. They posted their first 'performance,' a 4.5 minute clip of lipsynching to the Backstreet Boys hit 'I Want It That Way,' to their college intranet in March 2005. It quickly migrated to big sites like YouTube and Google Video and fast became one of the most watched and highest rated amateur clips online.[AP]
