Mariah Caught Lipsynching!!!!!

Filed under: Mariah Carey

She totally had an Ashlee Simpson moment!!!!!

Mimi performed less than live on Good Morning America today.

Her "performance" was filled technical problems, and she wasn't feeling that!

Mimi's backing track was suffering some major glitches today. Her pre-recorded vocals started before she was ready and then kept repeating towards the beginning of Touch My Body.

Then, the SAME THING happened around the 3:00 minute mark and she sings "Stop singing my part now, baby!"

It's hilarious!

She's wearing sunglasses but we could tell….Mimi was pissed.

Her comments at the end of the song were just priceless.

    Re: Will – Madonna fans are like horses with blinders. Madonna was not the first artist to wear sunglasses on stage. Loser.

    I think what people do not understand and what is a testiment to Mariah's talent is that she can be her own background singer and achieve any sound she is looking for where as other's NEED background singers to acheive a sound whether soulful, or pop crap. She can almost replicate any sound. She is her own background singer and only uses background singers for enhancements. Without a backing track (or support track) because Mariah stacks her voice (look up the meaning geniuses) the song would not sound the same if you did not hear her voice as part of the background singing because I don't know any one person that can sing different parts or even talk at the exact same time. Listen to almost any of her live performances (if you really can tell the difference between live and lipsynching) and you will still hear her voice in the background, which is what happened on GMA but they messed it up, everything happened as it was supposed too to acheive that effect, and Mariah had no intention of not singing live. Also, look at the Bye Bye performance on AI, you hear her voice singing along with her three backup singers, seperate from her main vocals.

    How a blogger like you did not understand about live performances in the bizz?
    All singers with uptempo songs single with the back pre recorded in fast parts of the song… See like Beyonce singing, even Leona on American Idol…

    learn something…

    SHE WAS SOO NOT DRUNK!!! and I don't think lip shynching is that awful anyway, I could never sing as good as her, and I dont think think that other people, who could never sing as good as her in a million years should be so critical!!

  7. The One says – reply to this


    507

    She's promoting her album and a single from it. Anyone who knows anything about the music industry knows that she is supposed to be lip-synching over the track she's actually promoting.

    508

    I am a fan of this site.. but after this… no no… Mariah didnt do any lipsynch here…. i guess u dont have any more issues to uncover… hmmm.. ur getting desperate!!!

  9. sOovEryoU! says – reply to this


    509

    Perez….once again your an idiot! Its a backup track….it plays behind the artist while singing. Mariah sings all the parts of the song and does her own backup vocals so she obviously cant sing two parts at once. She wasn't lipsynching because if she was…then her mic would have been off all together. Your just a dumb shit

  10. Jordyn says – reply to this


    510

    I think she handled it well.

  11. Perezfan says – reply to this


    511

    hmm…just watched and she sang the whole song live. she handled the minor glitch very well.

    and it seems the start of the song was really intended to be that way. some sort of remix and mariah was humming along with it.

    anyway, she really sang the whole song live :)

    She was NOT lipsynching! She sang live, and had a backuptrack. nothing weird about that.

    She was totally not lipsynching. Her background vocals were messed up though. And was she yelling at her background singers???? Who's Charlie?

    Mariah has a great voice but the songs she sings are dismal. And they all sound pretty much the dayum same. BORING. I'M BORED. Mario, you have a fat big head btw.

    She wasn't lipsyncing… her backup track was messed up.

    I love how she tryed to cober it up by saying "Just being Creative." and "I like to bring something different to the table for everyone."

  31. TheAmericanIdol says – reply to this


    531

    Well…this isn't an Ashlee moment. Mariah has talked about backing tracks and I don't there was anything wrong with that…the sound guy f!cked up big time…it was just for the chorus she used a backup track which is understandable. She sang the rest of the song live so I don't see any big deal. When on an album you have two or more levels or have your voice over your voice (like in this song) it is necessary to do so. I LOVE MARIAH :) !!!!!

    532

    YO WTF!
    Why would you people make up lies boutt she was lip singing
    Learn to spell probly then make lies on people well a matter a fact stop telling lies on good celeberties just to ruin their talent Mariah carey isn't like those other celeberties like :P aris hilton && that other girl forgot her CRUSTY NAME!
    SZEEN so STOP it that's BULL

  37. Donny says – reply to this


    537

    It's not Mariah's fault that the person playing the background vocals screwed up. Did Perez actually think Mariah performed BOTH parts live, or is he smart enough to realize this isn't posssible???? Mariah came back really strong with "That Chick" and she looked AMAZING!!! "Blaze me up and taste me, got flavor like ice cream"…….. wowww yummy!!! That body has never looked better and Mariah's now ultra tiny waist makes her shapely booty and bobbies look even bigger. Talk about curves!!!!

    ha old bitch cover up!

  39. Che says – reply to this


    539

    OH MY GOD! SHUT UP, THAT WAS MOST DEFINATELY LIVE, what you heard playing was the recorded backing track which every single artist uses. How is she supposed to sing both parts of the song at the same time? ADUHHH! and u were stupid putting that bitchy headline which people are gonna read without watching the video and realising youre the moron

    I dnt think she "lip synching" i think it was just a lousy performance theres a difference!!!!

    542

    I just find it funny how perez can always talk his shit on here but when Mariah stepped up to him about what he does and says about her he was a scared little boy . " oh i love you mimi " if i didn't love you i wouldn't say that . perez you should've just told her that you are a hater not a lover .

  43. riahs rob says – reply to this


    543

    Re: murdles – no she wasn't yelling at her back up singers and she said nothing about charlie . she said stop singing my lines baby speaking to the backing tape .

  44. KEVIN FROM HOLLAND says – reply to this


    544

    Just an email aaaaall the way from Holland to tell you Perez, that you are such a dumm ass cock-sucker. Your comments are always so enormously stupid… I can't believe…

    This time: She did not lip-sync at all…The background was just fucked up and what the hell! Why would you care! People are dying in Africa! Try to make something out of your life!!!

    PLEASE try to get a life instead of wasting your time with making a fool of others!

    You are just sad sad saaad….. How sad! Don't you know you come across as a loser? Oh well, I guess you just are!

    Oops I am wasting my time now as well..Let's move on!

  45. allie says – reply to this


    545

    i give her MAD PROPS for continuing LIVE. your title does unjustice…it started out badly and then she took over from the prerecorded vocal track and sang on her own. pretty damn good–i don't even like her, but i can appreciate LIVE music.

  46. JC says – reply to this


    546

    She sang the whole song… her track that has the back-up vocals was messed up, but she sang the whole thing. Get your facts straight before you judge people!

  47. j says – reply to this


    547

    "That damn hoe," looks HOT! She is a bigger girl so I would not go any lower for her type, damn she is HOT! Yeah I wish she would sing more but she was singing, "Stop singing my parts," ha ha!!!

  48. DUH! says – reply to this


    548

    Yes. In the music business…they play backup music when you sing. The mic volume is turned up and the singer sings OVER the backround music/vocals. It's so obvious when you hear Mariah REALLY singing live and when it's her backround music. Watch a clip of Britney Spears when she sings a fast song…her music is turned up so loud that you can't hear her singing along to her own music. Mariah sings live though! Can't you tell when she says "Stop singing my part now, baby!"? That's not recorded…so she's not really lipsynching.

    549

    MARIAH CAREY HANDLED THAT WELL SHE IS SO HILARIOUSE AND THAT WAS LIVE…..

    Did someone actually said here that Madonna can sing? Hello?! Ever heard that woman sing Frozen live? No one noticed Madonna skips every melodic hit she ever had at concerts? Any Madonna fans that still dare to play La Isla Bonita or Holiday out loud in their cars with the windows open?

    Could Madonna still perform True Blue live without anyone doubting her words?

    560

    well…she didn't actually LIP SYNC anything, so it is not accurate to say she was caught doing so. Of course they play a backing track on the verses of that song- there are like at least 3 layers of vocal there. That doesn't mean she is lip syncing- most singers, especially with songs like that, sing to a track. Obviously something got messed up with the track though.

    There was no lip singing at all!! Sheesh!! She was singing live all the way. The only thing that fucked up was her backtrack. And props to her to simply sing along the technical glitch and still sound pretty good.

    ya but can ashley SING "stop singing my part baby" haha no! that shows mariah is a singer and that is why these mimi lip syching stories on your site will never be picked up by mainstream media like the miley story or even the ashley simpson controversy.

  65. Tanyay says – reply to this


    565

    Yikes! It was live. Maybe not on purpose, but still live. I've liked her forever but I do feel she deserved this mishap for being full of herself at times. E=mc2 is not her best work, but if she'd stop trying to appeal to EVERYONE, maybe she'd gain some old fans back.

    omg it's kinda sad what happened to mimi but she's still awesome!!!! OMG I LOVE THE PINK DRESS LOL LATA BISHES
