OMG….did she just quickly said "my album is called E=mc2 and is available in stores today"….what a looooooooooooser…..
The High Notes are fake. and the easy crap is real
I have never been a fan, but that was effing AMAZING!
No She Was Not!!!….Her backup singer was singing with her most of the time
Sounded like she was lipsynching and it looked like she was trying REALLY hard! This far along in her career, she should definitely not lipsynch or try so hard. Poor Mariah, her day has come and gone…..
Her singing is live and not so bad, but she was working hard. The song is boring and sorry Mimoo your over.
It was live!
Sorry Perez - Mariah has a much more beautiful voice than Madonna could ever dream of. Madonna is the best at giving super shows, but she cannot compare with the God given voice of an angel…
I think she WAS definitely lipsynching some of the parts, others were live. PS - by the way people, when a person's mouth is closed, words can't still come out…….
She definitely sang an appropriate song, Bye Bye Mariah!! HA!
Did she call Ryan Seacrest John?? hahahaha dumb ass bitch
HOW MUCH IS OLD ASS MADONNA PAYING YOU??!?!!! FUCK OFF!!
no, there was serious back up, but that was her
I'd say lipsynching until the last 10 seconds, ya know she had to end it REAL!
Re: lace
and who has this god given voice of an angel? Cause it sure ain't Mariah…ever been to an opera? NEXT!
She's singing live. You can hear a few flat notes in the beginning, but she brought it at the end.
there was a track playing in the background but the vocals were definitely live. i'm 100% sure.
I won tickets to see American Idol yesterday (I promise I was there) I actually got to fist bump Justin Guarini (who was sitting right in front of me) and she was for sure not lip syncing because she practiced the song first while people were filling in their seats and she screwed up a little while she was singing.
Also, hilarious: Azamat, the short older guy from Borat who Borat chases around, was ALSO in the audience, sitting right behind the judges.
Lastly: Mariah's boobs looked good!
It is so live. Perez stop making it seem like she is lip-synching. Someone is hating on Mariah because she can actually sing live unlike Madonna. This song is so beautiful. Her whole album is awesome. I love, FOR THE RECORD, MIGRATE, SIDE EFFECTS, BYE BYE, AND OF COURSE TOUCH MY BODY. THE WHOLE ALBUM IS A PERFECT 10.
WE LOVE YOU MARIAH!
NO WAY! SHE WASN'T LIPSYNCHING! She's always live, and she sounded great last night.
Ze is blijft lekker. i love her
she was definitely singing live. i thought the performance was really boring actually, until it got closer to the end when she took the mic off the stand and started power singing. the whole beginning was a snooze. and it sounded way too quiet, like the sound balance was off.
live to me too…
She is pulling an ashley simpson!!!
YES YES YES! She was! I told my husband and he said no way, but I know she was. It was too perfect!
she is always and still is singing live, you can always tell by the sounds of her breath in the mike. its subtle but it is always the way to tell if someone is lipsynching- the ones that are have edited the breath sounds out of their pre-recordings. mimi may be silly and full of herself but she is still the best and realest performer out there and for that i can't help but respect her- and christina of course!!
Nope…not this time…
Such a bad song…
And I think she lipped the second half
of course NOT!! perezito por dios it was 100% live…i think you need to have some more faith in mimi, this performance was not bad at all
hugs desde canada xox
Are you out of your freakin' mind, Perez? She was amazing!
hahaha….ryan TOTALLY forced mariah to show the left side of her face…a HUGE no-no for ms. diva, as we all know!
i still looooove her, tho…LOL
That is the first thing I thought.
she was singing on top of a padded song, half of it is lipsynched!
wow. another boring mariah song. radio will eat this one up for sure…
Doesn't look like it. She has an live autotuner on her voice which will make it look like there's a slight delay. And then it doesn't make it hard to sing all of the notes. She COULD be punched in at certain points, which she has done in the past.
I swear it looked like she was lip synching last night when I watched it. Mariah is tirrrrred!
I think she prerecorded her performance and only started to actually "sing" at the end of the song so we could hear her hit the high notes. What a disappointment…she has such an incredible voice and she pretends to sing when she's live. She's pathetic.
seemed to look on and off
She started out live, and she totally was lipsynching the middle, high part. It was quite obvious, and could tell as I watched it last night. She's a brilliant singer..but it was a let down.
I think something was wrong with the mic, it sounded really quiet…
DEFINITELY SINGING TO TRACK!
I am not a fan of Mariah, but she did look like she was concentrating on her voice, pitch, and notes. It's hard to tell on an internet video. I love you Perez
It's live but she sounds poo.
Defiantely lip syncing.
.
Not sure about the lipsynching because … as usual with her last couple albums worth of songs … I fell asleep halfway through it.
.
Although I dissed her yesterday, I can def. tell you shes NOT lipsyncing this performance…it was actually pretty f'in GOOD!
so what happened to the Mariah that used to sing? Not this breathly wisper, humming shit. she hasn't belted out a tune in years!! her back up singers were better than she was……or is at this point
if you saw it live on TV you would definitely be able to tell she was NOT lipsynching! all of these videos floating around the internet just have really poor synchronization of audio and video, so it would be impossible to tell from just watching this.
doesn't sound like her vocal on the CD, so I'm sayin' LIVE!!!!
where do you get all this man so much for gossiping and crap but wow gossip man what else uare you gonna invent paris hilton took a crap in her car whats the point
i don't think that we was lipsyncing. when you watch the video you can hear that her voice isn't 100 percent correct….. it is hard for me to believe that she would, but if she did then she did a damn good job! lol!
She sang live.
I was there.
She is soooo skinny too.
still hate her.
in the beginning, when it suked, she sang live. at the end when she really had to belt, the record came on………..
SHE WAS LIP SYNCHING AT THE END PEOPLE GET UR EARS CHECKED
No, it was live….she must consider it a compliment that you think that she lip synched.
Even IF she was lipsynching WHO CARES!!!!!! It's not like we dont know that Mariah can sing!!!! She doesnt need to prove she can sing to anyone - her record sales and success say it all!!!!!!
yes yes yes yes she is lipsyncing
She may have some underlying tracks, but she is definitely singing live; you can hear all of the "s's" and breaths she takes.
Personally,I think Mariah is an amazing vocalist but, she was singing to a background vocal when the song initiated but it was gone by the end.I was like "wtf?"
SHe doesn't start synching until 3:25. Then the louder Mariah is recorded. She's fake. And how dare they let her synch on Idol. I would be pissed if I was a contestant and then she did that.
Perez…WHY YOU STARTIN' S**T??? Of course it's live!
Somebody please get her a stylist and also a coach to help her with her stage presence. I was bored watching her. Also like Simon said she played it safe last night as far as the singing went.
Mimi can sing! Why ya'll hating on her? She has one of the most beautiful voice, atleast i think so. Just stop hating on her, perez! I LOVE YOU MIMI! And i totally get this song, it makes me think of my sister, R.I.P gurl, loveyou.
I will never say bye bye.
I hate this fat HAS BEEN but this was OBVIOUSLY LIVE
..yeah..I think she was lip synching..but what is so wrong with that??? As long as she is no Milli Vanilli in the studio..does it really matter
Good Lord Perezilla…if your musical ear was as half as developed as your love for food, you'd no doubt hear that she is singing live. Are you that tone deaf? Listen carefully: In the video you posted slide it to 1:54, 2:21, 2:25, 2:50, 3:18, 3:29, 3:48 and 4:18. These are spots where you can without question hear differences in the studio album version and her live performance. When it hits 4:18, you'll hear some weird microphone feedback which is a sign of someone singing LIVE. It's probably not your fault tho - you're used to hearing sub-par "singers" like Madonna who you can REALLY tell when she's singing live because of the horrible real voice she has vs. someone like Mariah who actually has musical talent - a voice and a song writer, who when she sings her songs, she's mastered them vocally. Mariah doesn't need 25 machines behind her voice like Matuna does in order to sound half decent - sorry but that's the truth. Take some time to LISTEN before you start shitting out your stupidities.
Perez, did you even watch this clip? It was easily live. It sucked, but it was live. Jesus the news must be slow.
yah I think ure loco Perez
no it was live
As someone who loves Mariah, I also have to keep it real. Her voice is basically shot nowadays, she still kinda has it, but it's not reliable. I basically watch every live performance she's done since Mimi, and she has a fun habit of singing 95% of a song (masked by tons of overlapping vocals and overly loud back up singers) and when it gets to the end when she normally belts pretty high, she switches to a pre-recorded vocal. Oh, and overseas, she lip-syncs, like almost every performer who performs over there. I think it's a standard or something.
But, make no mistake, I'm a huge Carey fan, and the fact that she does stuff like this really makes my day. She's a diva and makes good songs, like Britney! What more could a gay boy want? She's a legend, and like Aretha and even Celine to a point, she's paid her dues and even if their voices aren't exactly what they once were, she still deserved respect for her accomplishments!
LIVE* Luv me some MC.
LIVE for sure…she is just that good.
Mariah Carey doesn't need to lipsynch.
why does she make that "ok" sign all the time while singing?
how old is she anyway?
She's totally singing, you can tell by her neck.
Compare to dumbasses who fuck up on stage, lol
um. are you serious? i can't get any more live than that.
When a group plays live, they were ear monitors. If you notice no one is wearing them. That's your first sign of lip synching. FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE! I also the applauds you here are FAKE FAKE FAKE. M-dawg uses her hands as distractions so you won't know she not singing. F! I remember when M-dawg used to sing. Now that she's so full of herself, her talent is whack. Every got damn song sounds the same and her producers get hyped for each one of them creating the same song. Damn the industry has gone to hell.
it was live
dis song is so bo0tiful i love it and im not even a fan of hers lol
Definately not lip-synching but there is a strong back track with her own back-up vocals mixed up there….hence why one may (pathetically) think that.
Getting caught lip-synching on American Idol would spell D-O-O-M for any celebrity.
Yes Perezito - she was lipsyncing, and I think she was using a body double on stage and her face was airbrushed for TV. She was also wearing a wig, a rubber mask and used prosethetic limbs! She's such a fake!
Who cares if she was lip-synching? But that annoying thing she does with her hands has to stop. Thats the kind of shit young kids who take voice lessons do to help them find the pitch. Its sad if thats how a seasoned performer like Mariah Scary needs tools like that. And she needs to stop attacking her mic with a bedazzler too. Holy bling.
lol i think it was at least live
i love her music soo much i can't
express enough in words how much i love her singing
i would marry mariah if could i lover her more than
the ugly guy i am dateing now
LOVE YOU MARIAH!!!!!
DEF NOT. WAS LIVE. SHE HAD THE BACK UP SINGERS FILLING HER VOICE OUT FOR HER. WHENEVER SHE DID THE HIGH NOTES SO DID THE BACK UP SINGERS ETC.
No there isnt a backing track because she has backup singers!!! Duh how dumb can you be. Mariah hardly ever lipsynchs, and if she does it is to REST HER VOICE!!! shut the feck up Perez and all you haters, Mariah is back deal with it!!!
Mariah is amazing and this is LIVE!
i think she was for most of the song probably saving it for the ending because it sounded louder than the begining
OMG! I cannot believe you guys don't see that she was so OBVIOUSLY lypsynching! I used to be a huuuuuge MC fan… but lypsynching on AMERICAN IDOL!??!?! She has reached a new low…
She kept using a dub and then not, and then lypsynching again, and then singing for real again, in order for it to be harder for the public to realize what's going on.
Did you not notice how perfect the end of the song sounded compared to the beginning and middle. All of a sudden, her voice sounded PERFECT….
Anyways, huuuuge dissapointment.
I was expecting her to take the Idols to task and blow the roof off the place.
Unfortunatley, she was bloody awful!!!
Her backup singer had a more powerful voice than she did!
If she wasn't lipsynching last night, maybe she should have been.
Sadly disappointing…
SHE WAS DEFINITELY LIPSYNCHING! SHE'S ALWAYS ON VOCAL REST SO OF COURSE SHE'S NOT GOING TO ACTUALLY SING…
DEFINITELY! They had to seriously adjust her mic when she started to talk to Ryan, like it hadn't even been on.
Eh!!! HELLLO… you need to check your earplugs… it's LIVE Bitch!!
Stop asking if she's lipsyncing.. can't you tell?? Obviously not!!!
Mariah is a true DIVA with a great voice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FUCK Everyone else who thinks otherwise.
AFTER THAT SHITEOUS PERFORMANCE,
SHE CAN SAY BYE-BYE TO RECORD SALES!
Re: ChiTown Cutie – Re: tory –
Of course it's LIVE! Are people deaf? I hate when people who don't know music for shiznit try to critique. People know so little about so much. Anyways, the real question is whether Mariah is going to fire that backup singer who screw'd up every whistle she did. EVERY ONE! I guess Mariah is letting her backup do whistles as a complement to the performance so HATERS can't she relies only on that.
It sounds as if she was not lipsyncing in the first part of the song but towards the end when around the end where she takes the mic out of the stand, the track went to lip sync. You can actually tell.
Re: clark – fuck u clark if ur going to direspect perez then go the hell away
oh yes she's singing!! One of the rare few who do these days
Actually…us TRUE lambs know that mimi does A LOT of "live to track". So the track has her voice, but she still sings over it…the pre-recorded voice helps her sound better so she doesn't have to do it all on her own since its live….plus, if there's a mic problem, the voice won't just cut out…so it's also a preventative measure……tons of stars do it!!!!
Nope, she wasn't. You could hear it because the vocals wasn't as even in loudness as on the track.
I thought the same thing last night when I was watching it. Her mouth didn't move EXACTLY to the sound a couple of times, but I agree with another that she was probably singing over a recorded track. What's with all her conductor hand movements though?
i aggree with most of the people who have already commented, mariah seems to be actually singing this one.. unlike most of the celebritys these days.
- side note. if you guys are going to put down perez so much, why do you keep visiting this site, if you think hes so 'horriable' ?
Ugh. It's usually pretty obvious when someone lipsynchs … what I've never understood is… if they plan to lip-synch, why don't they go to the venue prior to the show and just tape them singing it then so at least it will can be controlled but sound live? She was NOT lip-synching here though…it really was just backing vocals in the song, but you could CLEARLY make out her voice singing live throughout the entire song!
She was Lipsynching in the begging, you can tell!
was she fucking sucks…she was extremely pitchy.
Leona Lewis Is Fucking GOD compared to this Bitch
It was live in the beginning, then playback, then live again (around the 2nd verse) and so on. But mostly live.
