We guess that NO ONE can escape the wrath of lip-synching accusations on the internet!

Beyoncé faced it after her rendition of the National Anthem at the presidential inauguration of Barack Obama, and now, Mariah Carey has come under fire for her performance medley of her biggest hits on American Idol's 12th season finale last night!

And it was NOT pretty!

After Twitter essentially EXPLODED with criticism over what some viewers perceived to be bad lip-synching, as her voice did not always appear to match the audio during the live feed, the diva's representative quickly issued a statement that DENIES any wrongdoing on her client's part!

In fact, while Mimi DID sing along to a pre-recorded track, as many artists regularly do, her rep is adamant that she "performed with a 40-person choir" and "SANG LIVE."

Furthermore:

Hmmmm did Mariah Carey have something to do with this!?!?

Turns out, Nicki Minaj is just a little too seXXXy for American Idol’s liking!!!

All of the other judges delivered AH-mazing performances on the Season 12 finale last night, so it was SUPER noticeable when Nicki was the only one to NOT take the stage.

Nicki explains why she didn’t perform AND why her High School music video didn’t premiere on the show:

Well it's about time, wouldn't you say?!

We've been watching Mariah Carey feud with her co-judge Nicki Minaj all season long on American Idol, but finally, during last night's larger-than-life season finale, the diva finally took the stage to do what she's much better known for - her SUPREME and INCOMPARABLE vocal stylingz!

And that's not all!

Gurlfriend used the opportunity to take us all on a trip down memory lane, with a medley of her most beloved tunes, including Vision Of Love, Make It Happen, My All, Hero, We Belong Together…and of course, her latest #Beautiful, which just became her 27th number one on the R&B/Hip Hop Charts!

Mimi took to Twitter that very evening to share:

Thank you for supporting # beautiful and making it #1 on R&B! #L4L!!!!!!! twitter.com/MariahCarey/st…

What we would have given to be present during the filming of Mariah Carey and Miguel’s #Beautiful music video!

Thankfully for us, Mariah shared a short but totes sweet behind-the-scenes video that follows her around the shoot’s location!

Such a tasty dessert!

Ch-ch-check out the HIGHlarious clip (above)!

Things get pretty innnneresting, from hot rods to wafting foliage, all thanks to director Joseph Kahn. But perhaps the clip’s best part? The singing legend seemingly holding on for her dear life whilst walking through the set! LOLz!

LOVES IT!

Mariah Carey and American Idol may not be crossing paths next season, but it really doesn’t matter.

Why?? Because this lady has some surprises in store! Given the success of her new collaboration with Miguel (#1 in 25 countries already!!), Mariah could be planning on riding her own coattails round the world!

With a world tour, that is!!!

A source revealed:

We knew it was sweeps season, but we had no idea all four judges were getting swept under the rug!!

Sources say American Idol is cleaning house — neither Nicki Minaj, Keith Urban, Mariah Carey, or the veteran Randy Jackson are coming back for another season!

Unless your name is Ryan Seacrest, it's time to clean out your locker!!

Wow!!! We knew RJ was on the way out and viewership was dwindling, but we never expected this kind of shake up!

Apparently Fox execs are furious over the crap-tastic ratings!

One network insider said:

Well HELLO Mariah Carey and her roller coaster curves!

The sexy shepherdess debuted the music video for brand new single #Beautiful, and DAYUM does girl leave little to the imagination.

Ch-ch-check out the sensual visuals (above)!

She flirts! She flaunts! She giggles like a schoolgirl!

Hmm, if we were her hubby Nick Cannon, we would be VERY jealous of Miguel right now! But then again, Mariah probably rides Nick's own hot rod on a daily basis…

And we are NOT talking about motorcycles LOLz!
