This clip isn't suffering from any kind of sync issues as she's in time at the beginning, she forgets to come in for the start of the next line.

The problem is that many people don't have any grasp of the technical aspects of a production. She wasn't miming, there was a tiny gap between sound and vision at an OB. I don't know about the nails - quite a few guitarists these days (male and female) stick on acrylic nails for playing, so maybe they help. But the silly stories on Dolly were typical Mail nonsense. It's like the masses of people who seem to think that any loud studio audience laughter is 'canned laughter'. It depends on how it's miked up and mixed - ITV seem almost eager to MAKE it sound canned - and occasionally how it's edited.

I believe that .... I love her self-depricating style
