China responds.
Quote:
A senior Olympics official in China has defended the decision to replace a girl in last Friday's opening ceremony with another deemed to look more suitable.
"I don't see anything wrong with it, if everybody concerned agrees," said Wang Wei of the organising committee.

I agree that it's a big deal being made out of something that IMO isn't that big of a deal. It's their artistic license to do whatever they want.
Really grasping at things now.

The miming incident is one of a number of stories thought to have caused some private embarrassment to Olympic organisers.
In another disclosure, it was revealed that parts of the footage of the opening ceremony fireworks were pre-produced.
Organisers have also been trying to explain why so many empty seats have been visible at purportedly sold-out events.
