Mariah!

Did anyone see that debacle last night? Mariah was the headliner, and she literally stood there not singing an entire song, while her dancers kept dancing. I'll add a YouTube video when I'm on my PC.

Only music I saw was Lionel Richie.

Thanks, Jim. Her first song is the one where she doesn't sing at all

Just saw this now too. She blames issues. Fact is, the lyrics were playing in the background, she was busted.

Mariah Carey Bungles Her New Year's Eve Show, Stops Singing

NEW YORK (AP) — Mariah Carey has ushered in 2017 with a botched performance on "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest" on ABC.

The singer appeared to have technical difficulties during her live performance Saturday night in Times Square. She even stopped singing her song "Emotions," paced the stage and told the audience to finish the lyrics for her.

She told the crowd, "I'm trying to be a good sport here."

Carey headlined the festivities in Times Square, where about a million revelers jammed in to greet the new year.

A representative for the singer confirmed there were technical difficulties.

Carey took to Instagram after the performance saying, "Here's to making more headlines in 2017."

Ha, she's such an idiot. She doesn't even know the words for her own song, and then she couldn't even lip synch the follow-up song. Watching the "performance", I was trying to decide if she was high or just an idiot, and I ended up firmly convinced toward the "just an idiot" opinion.

Russ and I were at a NYE party, with the ABC festivities on in the background while we all played games. When this nonsense started, the whole room stopped playing and watched her like the train wreck she was. It was truly a debacle.

The party sounds like fun. I love board games or even card games. I fell asleep, knowing I had to get up to work this morning. 2017 came anyways! ;)

It was! Best part- we were invited by our daughter's friend and her fiancé. Nice mix of young and "older". I hardly drank and didn't get too wound up, but had lots of fun anyway.

What games did you play? My kids and their friends had some fun ones. One was something with railroad building, another that could get sort of risque/raunchy depending on those playing. Lots of others, it's kinda cool that they still like the 'old types' of games.

Evanescence. Mariah who?

Oh yeah. That song from Paint Your Wagon. They call the wind Mariah.

Pictionary and Taboo. On an easel, and I can't draw at all. :laugh2:

[NightTrain]

Never been a fan.

And I don't get the whole Lip Synch thing - people paid to hear you sing live, and you cheat by pretending to sing? If I wanted to hear the studio recording, a CD or YouTube is available for that.

Singers that lip synch should be caught in front of everyone, imo.

Not a fan either. But she has/had talent as a singer. No excuse for lip syncing.

They get busted all the time though. Watch World's Dumbest sometime. Foreign singers are the worst. They have no plan on recovering from jacking up.:laugh:

[Black Diamond]

Bring in milli vanilli next time.

[Abbey Marie]

The way-off lip synching wasn't the worst part. Here's part of the first song, where she didn't even try to sing. There are even worse parts, but you get the idea.

Hate to be the fake boobs party crasher here but total turn off. I don't care who or what you are, but if you got fake ones, channel change time. I don't have to get past that to whatever else she screwed up.

Whatsamatta with you? :slap:

Boobs make the world go 'round. And the bigger, the better.

Nah. Want the person, not the bra size. And fake boobs feel like just what they are -- plastic. And no, it wasn't my idea. I was fine. Little Miss "Ithink I need bigger ones" came up with the plan.

I like real people. Hard to come by nowadays.

Either way.... she was having to 'get help' going up and down the steps as one of the "dancers" served as her personal crutch. It could have been that she was high AND stupid. Dunno....but it looked pretty lame.

You'd better get a 2nd opinion. They're pretty realistic these days.
