Answer 2

The trust of audiences for intelligent performance is where
this recent bad habit came about. Telling stories for over
2000 years the churches, choirs, religious instructors did a
turn on to emotional expressive reading in about 880. After
the rebel prayer actions got into separatism the reverse
psychologists spoke out that dark ages would come to those that feel haughty or indignant with God's temple. Later
there was tremendous support for those singing nuns like
the flying nun san franciscans who brought public information to the fact that men, nor many women felt obedient to the laws of the music Gods. For the 400th anniversary of the Temple of Music in Heaven's Garden Israel and Rome, and the blessed sacred members sites a
paper was passed to the United Nations mentioning that a
rebuff of fools had been achieved. Very unique feelings the
service of music and theatre, longest traditions have strong
emotional feelings. They may seek to put people at ease

If you're seeing this mostly on amateurs/beginners, then it's probably just that they aren't paying attention to that part of themselves. The concept of "stage presence" is usually introduced after someone has mastery of the more basic things (moves, notes, etc.).

Bellydancers, especially the less traditional and more "cabaret" style dancers, will occasionally vamp and flirt and make faces on purpose. Their goal is to connect with the audience as well as show their skill, as opposed to (as I understand it) ballet dancers, who are instructed not to smile because that will distract the audience's attention away from your movements.

Singers will occasionally need to twist their mouths strangely because it's necessary in order to properly enunciate at such high volume. You really do need to overpronounce everything when you sing, or it's difficult for your audience to understand you.
