Last night Mariah Carey was on America's Got Talent. I am guessing she was on because of Nick Cannon who some say is her husband and who I say is an employee that happens to be married to Mariah. I have posted the video, but honestly you will be seeing flashing lights for the rest of the day if you watch it all. It is the most disturbing 5 minutes of lighting ever. Try and make it through one or two minutes and just watch Mariah. She looks completely uninterested to be there and quite possibly drunk.
I understand this was a favor to Nick, but agreeing to do it and then not caring how you look or what you sound like isn't doing anyone a favor. At the Michael Jackson funeral she wasn't that great either and I'm wondering if she just doesn't care anymore because she knows people will continue to pay to see her no matter how bad she is.
Chile she was loopy as all hell, ugh and they seem like girlfriends as oppose to husband and wife, wussup with that?!?!
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna go ahead and assume the last bit of the song was lip synced. There's no way she was able to hit those notes when she hasn't been able to in a long time (from performances I've seen, anyway).
ReplyDeleteEh. At least she opted for pants instead of her usual too short spandex dresses.
I didn't think it was THAT bad. The sound in general was bad but she smiled and made an effort to put spotlight on Nick even though we all know Mariah's loved the attention.
ReplyDeleteShe probably just had a few too many glasses of Champaign but it was nothing compared to Britney's dead eye, lackluster performances.
I am cutting her a break on this one Enty. I think you are being too harsh.
she seemed to be trying to hard to be cutesy with Nick, trying to make it seem like they are so in love. They may very well be in love, but she was trying very hard to make it come across that way.
ReplyDeleteI haven't liked her since she first hit the pop charts. She's always making excuses for her lousy performances. This one is painful to watch. She can't dance and her cutesy behavior is childish when she's 40. I don't think she even sings live anymore. I can't remember the last time she wasn't lip synching. Even her "live" performances are prerecorded. And the best part (for me at least) was that Nick said "her smash hit single". By what standards Mr. Cannon? The song is tanking and definitely not getting airplay.
ReplyDeleteAlso his end dialogue was so painful to watch as he touted her accomplishments. I love how they didn't show her squeezing his ass as she did on live TV and he blushed.
Her song came in at #11. She was beaten by the new Miley Cyrus song. Ouch.
ReplyDeleteI saw it, it was bad and I like Mariah. The only thing worse was the dialog between hubby and wife at the end. Weird.
ReplyDeleteI agree is was drunk or on something, but have to give her credit for not falling in those heels while loopy. I would have been on my butt within 5 seconds of standing up.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it was all that bad. She ALWAYS performs like this.
ReplyDeleteI've seen worse performances like when she sang live on Oprah a few years ago. She blamed her bad singing on it being too early in the morning.
ReplyDeleteDancing is not what she can do.
ReplyDeleteShe performs better when she just stands still. If she moves around she looks really lazy.
ReplyDeleteWasn't there a blind about how she's an alcoholic?
ReplyDeletei think she just isn't as into her music as she used to be. her stuff just kind of all sounds the same, and i think she is figuring that out ;)
ReplyDeleteGuess her drinking problem is getting out of control.
ReplyDeleteHum .. not sure if anyone else had this issue .. but I couldn't get the video to work on my Mac. So if you need it .. this link will take you right there.
ReplyDeleteAs to what to make of this whole deal .. damn. Well.. for sure she seemed .. uh .. altered. But .. between her and Nick .. she was kinda spaz-y. The whole punching in the stomach business and the shoe deal?? Maybe she is just that immature .. she obviously still thinks she is about 26 rather than about to be 40 in a few short months.
Don't know .. really honestly don't know what to make of this whole deal .. OH!! Other than the song!! Don't you get the idea that some songs are written for the video?? This one is boring as hell and obviously written for the video that accompanies it!
Mariah actually taped her part on Sunday. From all reports, they were supposed to start at 8pm, but Mariah was late and they didn't tape until midnight. She did one run through, her and Nick did that brief kissy face thing at the end and she left.
ReplyDeleteThere was a fan video of it and if you compare it to what they showed on Wednesday night, they clearly dubbed some of Mariah's vocals.
Personally I've thought she's been jacked up on pills since she cracked up almost a decade ago. Something is not right with her and hasn't been for a long time. Kinda makes you feel sorry for Nick in a way.
ReplyDeleteI saw the live performance on TV and they did show her grabbin his ass..what little there is of it. She did act way loopy, but anymore isn't that just her?
ReplyDeleteHer songs go kinda sound the same, but because shes "Mariah" she can sell it. I like this song, and am getting a kick outta the back and forth between her and Eminem. Too funny!
Oh and have you EVER in your LIFE seen a more mismatched couple then Mariah and Nick? Its like momma and son...or something lol.
uh, high notes? not.
ReplyDeletei have few talents in my life. i can pull that shit off. maybe not recording quality, but i used to sing a bit.
now, i've heard she used to have an amazing voice. squeeking is not amazing. opera is amazing.
oh, and no problem on my mac,
