Mimi, Are You Ok?
Filed under: TV News > Mariah Carey > Nick CannonAs a favor to her hubby, Nick Cannon, who just happens to be the host of America's Got Talent, Mariah Carey performed on the show last night.
Mimi sang her latest single Obsessed, but there was something off about it all.
The performance was very reminiscent of Britney's VMA gig back in 2007: dull, disappointing and down-right awful.
Watch her performance (above) and tell us what U think.
Try not to fall asleep watching it!

FAT FUCK she sang live on NBC. Brit doesn't sing live!
exactly what I was thinking…
Thinking of eminem and his warning.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
she's too shook up over eminems diss!
she should stick to swatting flies with her tail
Perez why do you hateon this woman so much? I thought the performance was good for a song that was so over-layered and many vocals to it. Something was wrong with the sound is all.
lol!
wow, that was boring. even brits gimme more had a spark to it
Don't you also hate the song then why bother?
shes so off key half way through!
As shit as ever.
She just didn't practice. Gotta put in the work!
thishotmess.com
eh, i think it could have been a lot better, but not a complete trainwreck. and this is coming from someone who is definitally not a big fan.
she kiiinda just stands there for a whilee lmfao booring!
It's hard to move in pants that tight and heels that high. Whoriah Scary Sucks!
she sucks! she can't sing at all!
i like mariah but why are the dancers lifting her like, 1000 times? is she trying to prove to people that she is as light as a feather ?
This is in no way as bad as Britney's VMA performance.
It seemed like she was on something..Kind of out of it..
she used to be so good, i wonder what happend?
Ugh, seriously bitch, time to retire.
she sucks
boring and uninspired song and performance. i couldnd watch all of it because i got bored. still, it doesnt look as bad as britney did at the imfamouse 97 award show or even how she looks now. britney just looks drugged out while mariah looks uninspired and even bored.
boring fat cow
not very awsome
oooooobsessed! the song sucks big time
Wow really? What is her appeal?
Ugh! She couldn't lip sync or something?
Ok Perez….Madonna's camp can stop paying you to make rediculous comments about Mariah!
I don't get what your fat ass has against her!?
bc eminem did a song back to obsessed. its CRAZY!
OMG I watched AGT last i was hopeing it would get better but it SUCKED from begin to end ,At the end when her and nick were on stage together i think that was for Eminem……….lol
Hell, Britney moved more than Mariah.
Mariah's performance may not have been good, but comparing her to Shitney "no-talent" puppet hag is a low blow.
Mariah has talent. Shitney has NONE!
Omg that was so boring I couldn't even watch the whole thing. Sucks to be Mimi!
i actually liked it. and the couple are too cute!
no her best performance
Sounds like she was singing OVER the track. Britney didn't sing at all, so I give Mariah credit.. a little. The dancing was EHHH.. maybe her undershirt corset was too tight?
this should be called the "now its just getting sad" performance.
mariah just doesn't look like she's into performing anymore
totally half assed
and she always picks the most unflattering outfit possible
This is nowhere near as hot a mess as Britney at the VMAs.
It was good. Boring, but good. I expect more from her though.
Why is this woman so obsessed with herself ? This is a question only she can answer. The irony of this is that the song poses this question "why you're so obssessed with me?"
Mariah's never been a dancer, so I don't know why she feels the need to surround herself with dancers all the time. It looked under-rehearsed, but I wouldn't say she was off like Britney. Britney's performance was a pure travesty.
Lypsincing. High.
damn I wish someone would have hit the three x's because that was awful and the backup dancers made it even worse
PS. Mariah, if you would sing from your heart & soul (I still believe she's got a good voice somewhere down there), rather than trying to follow the latest trends in R&B/Hip-Hop, you might feel a little more inspired…just saying.
I remember watching this and thinking "OH GOD!"
Wow. Silly Mariah, shes whacked out. I couldn't watch all of it. Nick Cannon introducing her was my favorite part! Wouldn't It be great if she steeped on one of the guys with her heels. OUCH! thats entertainment =]
It was ok but not as horrible as Britney!!!
Too many anti-depressants!
WTF please stop it Mariah. You can not sing or move. Your stage show are a joke
the most boring shiz i've seen in a while it looks like she's wearing lead bootsso that's why she fails to dance with her backup dancers
Kinda boring, not SUCH a bad voice.
I cant STAND these people who can't perform without 20 people behind them distracting the audience from their lack of talent. They can't entertain a crowd all on their OWN!!!!!!! i.e janet, madonna, britney, etc….I HATE that shit.
LOL! WOW….why does she keep like forgetting to sing and just smiles at the camera?! this is truely sad considering she used to be one of my favs back when i was like 12.
she is FABULOUS no matter what she does. you didnt like her performance? get over it =) she's the one with the amazing voice. mariah is thee best, hands down. i love mc.. always have always will. xo
She barley moved, she looked like she didn't want to be there, it kinda did put me to sleep
she just can't dance for shit!
Good grief.
Avril………………HELP!
I couldn't even finish watching this - she's not a dancer so she shouldn't even be going there which gave it a surefire sense of awkwardness - plus the song itself just isn't that good. The guys lifting her in the air like that looked ridiculous - and "smash single" - I love how people will just say stuff to say it - how embarassing.
mariah could never dance.. as for the singing….. shes a better singer than britney
It was boring and the song isnt very good but she sounded ok. Im thinking shes worried about Eminems next come back
Mariah ain't a dancer, that much is clear, surrounding herself with dancers just makes her look even more lethargic. That she also looked, well, stuffed into the clothes doesn't help either, she really failed to show off the assets well, and instead left me looking at how wide her hips looked (never where lines down the side to show it off) and how bored she looked. Dressed a little differently, and with dancers that didn't look like they were trying to slow down for her, she might have pulled it off better. As it was, the performance was more "moo" and less "mimi"
She DID NOT sing live!!! It was really bad :/
boring
In all fairness to Britney, Brit lipsynchs quite well. Mariah simply cannot carry a tune. She wouldn't make it past the audition rounds og=f both America's Got Talent and American Idol. I was waiting for the judges to buzz the X's.
I think she realised the irony that she was singing on a show called americas got talent
She doesn't seem as heavily medicated/out of it as Britney did. Just really depressed. The Emimem thing and poor album sales must have gotten to her.
i cant watch until the end
She's FAT, unappealing, untalented, delusional, and psychopathic. As Madonna once said in an interview: "Mariah is evidence of the dumbing of America"…. If you can seriously sit and watch this and consider it "entertainment" then you're probably as FAT and ANNOYING as she is. Shouldn't she be grazing in a Wyoming pasture somewhere? LMAO
lol wtf was that at the end???? grabbing nick cannon like that on live tv…..slut.
I'm thinking the performance was lackluster because she's pregnant. Kinda makes sense, doesn't it?
it's sooooo much better then than britney's vma performance, for a start mariah had far less weave then britney and she wasn't high on coke and let's not forget to mention she sang LIVE perfectly unlike britney plus mimi's never been much of a dancer so c'mon now peep's don't hate
I feel like she is stuck in 2001 with the one shoulder shirt and bedazzled pettle pushers.
she looked scared or worried or something. eminem must be on her mind. boring song, boring performance. the shirt was not flattering either.
Um… Perez Mariah doesn't dance.
She sucks sooooooooo bad, and so does this disaster of a song
ew.
this & the music video BOTH suck.
he looks like a little kid next to her
oh it was not britney vma bad. and they were cute interacting together at the end of the clip.
Britney's 2007 performance was WAY better. haha. Not even kidding.
A mess, she really needs to get her singing back to the way it use to be.
Her performance was WAY LOUSY and Nick Cannon is a Maria Carey nutt-swingin' DOUCHE!
Mariah is a singer/songwriter..Britney is dancer/singer. There was no contest here…Mariah gave a competent performance vs. Britney's disaster. It was not her best performance, but certainly nothing to be ashamed of…that is for sure.
TEAM EMINEM!
Ok I am a HUGE fan of Mariah and have been from day 1, but…the bottom line is: her music sucks…the song sucks. ALL the Mariah fans out there…do you remember when Mariah stood on stage and didn't have to do shit except sing?
She would wow audiences whether she moved or not…because it was about the song and the voice…not the glitz and glamor. Ever since she crossed over and started doing R&B, she sounds like EVERY OTHER R&B singer and that is sad because she truly does have a power house of a voice.
If she could write something that resembled the stuff that made her famous in the first place, the stuff that showed off her voice- not cover it up…I think she could be back to where she was in the early 90's…
once again, i hate you and you're a fucking asshole. mariah sang live here and is obviously not drugged into oblivion. stop hating on her for no reason. you sound stupid.
To be fair, I never cared for Mariah Carey. But that was pretty boring.
I love the way she grabbed his ass. haha other than that, that song's soooo stupid
She's not feeling it. The body's there, but the head is somewhere else. She's a ballad singer who is singing the wrong stuff to try to stay current. Why is she singing this broken up pop crap when she has the kind of voice that prefers to soar over the octaves like Celine? I can see and hear that it doesn't challenge her. She has enough money for several lifetimes, so she has the luxury of cherry picking and focusing in on what she does well. She ought to contact Cowell or someone similar, and get a consultant and a voice coach (it never hurts to refresh yourself) to find the real music that suits that voice. Josh Groban specializes. El Divo specializes. At one point I felt this girl could do opera. Oh, and I hope it's not the song content that has her feeling not right.
wowww she must be comatose.
This bitch, she is probably high or just got another lipo done because she is stiff as fuck!!!! Why she act like she can't move and I heard that other person singing for her cause she running out of breath and shit!!!!!! Dumb bitch!!!!!!
just an idiot working on the mixer for the sound struggling with Mariah's microphone and then rerecorded with the microphone that arranged the clip you just saw. Nothing wrong with the song, Mariah or the choreography.
that's my opinion.
I bet down inside Mariah is envious of, and very intimidated by Madonna.
Re: **KC** – Exactly what I was thinking. She is not singing from the heart, there is no emotion what so ever
she looks a little big…but im sure shes just scared shitless to ever sing that song again after eminem reacted…
Well…Sorry Perez but even if Britney wasn't as good as she was in 2001 for "I'm a slave 4 U" , I loved her performance and I forgive her if she was a bit slow.
I like Mariah's performance too, and she sings pretty well ! Nice job !
Did the bizzy pop a xanex before going on stage? I bet Nick thought marrying her would make him A list, I bet she never figured marrying himn would make her Z-list
are all those flashes supposed to distract us from how much shes sucking ?!
and who the hell still wears capri pants !? well its mariah…..
did anyone notice that when they advertised her album at the end they misspelled her name? effin hilarious
wow, usually mimi is a power house.. that was really boring for me to watch.
