GREAT talent but DIVA supreme…She doesn't care about authenticity anymore. She's like rich for reals…I bet she thinks her fans are a joke…

So what if she is? It's been done forever. The Beatles and the Stones did it in the beginning of rock shows. It's okay. It's not a crime. It's just that Perez wants you to think it's bad, and watch as you all say, yeah, Perez, she is. And so what? Who cares? Perez is pure evil. Think for yourselves, kids!

rachel says – reply to this

17

definitely not lip-synching. if you listen to the studio track it's totally different. although i agree she's barely singing. This is not her best performance. She's totally lacking energy.

Perez, where are you?? Britney is dead, and you haven't written anything yet? The accident is on every news channel now

No asshole, she was singing live, it is obvious…You don't have to be a fan to know it. She sang amazing and just as good as the album. If it were prerecorded mimi wouldn't remember so many adlibs. Stop hating on Mariah, she can still sing like noone can, just because Madonna's album didn't do as expected doesn't mean you have to bash on the real queen.

LRM says – reply to this

25

I don't mean this rude Perez…but you are gonna have to lay off Mariah. Anyone who has ears can tell this woman wasn't lip syncing this song. Mariah Carey is not someone who has to rely on lipsyncing - she is talented and has an amazing voice and we ALL know this. If she does lipsync for whatever reason - it is no biggie - cause the girl has skill and has proved it time and time again. But she is for sure not lip syncing here. I personally think you are trying to hate on her so much because she kicked your girl Madonna's booty on the charts and you so did not want that to happen. I say keep on keepin' on Mimi and shake those haters off!

If you listen closely you will know it's live. Mariah always looks like she's not singing, but it's really coming out of her mouth.
spiceg says – reply to this

40

Yeah she was cause that's the exact version from her record with no original ad libs or anything! They all do it so this really isn't news Perez! What should be news is why Mariah is 40 years old and still dresses like a teenager! She should be so super ashamed of herself for dressing like that all the got darn time! However, I am such a fan of her music and E=Mc2 ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!

It looks like she is singing. Especially when she hits the high notes!

48

Who is hating? You mean if you don't agree with Perez, you are a "hater"? Oh come on! I'd say 12-25 year olds read this. Very impressionable demographic. Its okay to disagree with Perez Hilton! It's healthy, in fact, because he is hateful. His whole site is based on hate. I promise if you were famous, he'd hate you.

she always looks like she lip synching. be she probably isn't.

Perez, clean the wax out of your ears first, then go and listen to the cd version and then go back and listen to this version. She is NOT lipsyncing!!! You are such a shit disturber.
Franki says – reply to this

51

She is singing live…at least in parts…this performance was a different version then the album.
jamie says – reply to this

52

Her doctor probably told her to rest her voice to prevent damage. Why do you make such a huge issue out of this Perez? Jealousy? Mariah has the goods. Watch her MTV Unplugged performance to see for yourself. Madonna has a weak voice.
J says – reply to this

53

I have noticed that her voice is not as powerful as it was in the 90s. I think she thinks she's too good now to be belting out a tune. I can hardly hear her. I don't like the way she sings now.
Psux says – reply to this

54

Yep, Perez is trying to make you negative. He is trying to rile you up. He is a horrible person. No morals. He is not your friend. Could somebody please, please tell me what there is to love about Perez? I'm quite serious. What is there to even like about him?
chris says – reply to this

55

This is clearly LIVE. It's the way the mpg was converted. The track sounds NOTHING like the album version. There are numerous variations in the vocals. Not to mention the high notes that she hits at the end of the song. This Mariah-bashiong is getting REAL old. Why don't you look on the net where you'll find STUDIO VERSIONS of ALL songs Madonna performs on her tours…JUST LIKE THEY SOUND ON THE TOURS!! Let's just say she ain't using them for rehearsals. LOL What a joke!
Zzzzzz says – reply to this

56

Zzzzz… Wake up up when this boring-assed bitch is done lipsycing.
My GOD, can she be any more boring and lifeless when she performs?
And she looks stupid in that outfit. If she can't walk in heels, she shouldn't
wear the damned things. What a princess, having to have her dancers hold her hands while she goes down the stairs. BOOOORRRRIIIIINNNNNNG.
I hope this single FLOPS too! No more #1's for this has been!
dll says – reply to this

57

yes she is singing it perez. and for the record, mariah sings live 10 times more than that old hag madonna
Britne says – reply to this

58

i dont see why she has to lipsync…its not like shes really dancing or anything. i love mariah, but she kinda just stands there while she's singing…its a little annoying.
chelsi says – reply to this

59

what do you mean she is not singing on it, she is singing through out the whole song. i dont think she is lipsinging.
Trent says – reply to this

60

Perez I sent you this video. You know that she was singing live; there are too many ad-libs in that performance for anyone to memorize in order to plan a lipped performance. Can you explain the high notes at the end that are not on the record and the fact that they entire key is different? When you spoke to her on Ryan's show you were kissing her ass but when she is not around to defend herself you try to bring her down? You give gays a bad name; making them seem to be the catty people that society views them as. You are quite pathetic Perez.
Maria says – reply to this

61

She's actually singing Perez give it a REST! Unlike your favourite singer of all time - MADONNA can you please post a video of her actually singing live? Thanks fatso xxxx

blake says – reply to this

65

A lot of female bashing Perez. Why don't you pick on a man for a change? You should see a psychologist and discuss your hatred for women. I have a feeling you have a lot of unresolved feelings towards your mother. You'll never be able to move forward in your life (have fulfilling relationships/get married/have children) if you don't. Your gay pessimistic woman hating personality will scare many potential lovers away.
Ashley says – reply to this

66

they do no close up on her face at any point so you cant really say that she is lipsynching, I think she really is singing here…it just sounds like her natural voice
Megan says – reply to this

67

Stop hating on her!! She wasn't lipsynching, but you are right the song doesn't have a lot of her singing, could it be to the many layers of song?? Just saying

Re: Psux –

mariah doesnt lipsync, you can obviously tell shes really singing. I hate when perez accuses her of lipsyncing whenever she doesnt. When she actually does make a real post about it. Lovesit

davido says – reply to this

Plus you can hear the backup singers, it's not her singing double over her own voice…

You really dislike her, man

MTV America needs to step it up. i haven't been interested in the video awards in like five years. but, have that huge arena with mariah, and ill fuckin watch all the time.

david says – reply to this

92

yet ANOTHER wack ass song from played-out whoriah. it's like each single she releases off that album is worse than the last one. 'touch my body' sucked, 'bye bye' BLOWS, now this??? she's definitely buying her record sales. i refuse to believe people are actually dumb enough to buy this tramp's crap.
Live, says – reply to this

93

So what if she's not lipsynching, Lambs? It still SUCKS.
What a boring performance. She doesn't even have any energy, she's just
going through the motions and depending on her high octives to impress everyone. Sorry, but all is does is hurt my ears. She BLOWS as an entertainer. Nice voice, but CRAPPY entertainer. Sorry lambs, it's true.
And who even mentioned Madonna??? Why do you lambs always have to drag Madonna into every Mariah post? Perez taps on BOTH of them, so get over it!

i watched this and forgot all about the song in like 5 minutes. i saw madonna's new video this morning, and i can't get the song out of my head. this chick is too concerned with trying to be cute instead of putting out quality music anymore. and i'm SO disappointed in that E=whatever bullshit. mariah needs to retire now and go shopping or something.
