Its her own fault she cant carry a tune. But sources close to Mariah Careys widely panned NBC tree-lighting performance at 30 Rock believe disgruntled techies are to blame for leaking a vocals-only recording of her woeful Wednesday night appearance. Their motive? Revenge! As Confidenti@l reported Thursday, production workers attached to the NBC broadcast were upset that Carey kept them waiting three hours in the winter cold Tuesday night, and ultimately failing to show for a taping of her Christmas performance. That number was supposed to air on Wednesdays broadcast. The network and the diva were left with no choice but to take their chances with a live performance of Careys 1994 classic All I Want for Christmas. Producers did their best to cover her awful appearance with sophisticated audio mixing that seemingly took advantage of good backup singers and musicians as well as the audience cheering. But on Thursday morning, a track of just Careys voice, screeching through the holiday tune sans musical accompaniment, hit the Internet.

Too old to be poured into anything. Time to show some maturity ... IMHO
I once heard Gloria Estefon without her back up.
It was painful the hear.
There was a draft ?
I bet there was
yes--cheek implants, nose job, veneers... more subtle than most, in my opinion... she looks good... but she would look better if she didn't try so hard to seem younger... the constant cleavage and sausage casing attire is sad at her age... she could keep her sex appeal while being classier... Jennifer Lopez is close in age to Mariah... and she wears some revealing get-ups while she performs... and even on the red carpet--but not super tight, and not revealing sooo much at once... she comes across as classy...
Mariah Carey will be 46 in March. I am thinking something more than age is affecting her performance. Booze? Crack cocaine? Pot? Mind altering drugs?
If she uses coke wouldn’t she lose some weight?
Next year she will be replaced with a Beyonce or a Swift or a Cyrus.... It all sounds the same. Go to youtube and type in your favorite music and listen to real talent. The names mentioned here do not have it.
That’s brutal!
Looks to me like she dumps her in ear monitors halfway through. They could have been “faulty” or the mix was not right (because she didn’t have a rehearsal) or the audio guys could have been screwing with her.
Out of shape, out of breath, and too much alcohol over the years.
It can’t be easy singing those dog whistle notes.
I’ll bet she blew a vocal cord.
