Mariah May Lip Sync, but She Can Still Improv a Smackdown

It's no big secret that a lot of performers sing with backing tracks on stage, but this morning on GMA, Mariah Carey had a bit of an Ashlee Simpson-esque moment. Whoops! During her performance of "Touch My Body," the track started a little early showing that, surprise surprise, she wasn't entirely singing live. Then, later in the song one of the backup singers was apparently singing the diva's part and Mariah felt the need to shut her up. She worked it right into the song — amazing — by turning around and singing to the perpetrator "Stop singing my part now, baby." Um, I have to say, love it. Check out the video after the jump; you know she had a fit as soon as she got off stage, right? Hey, at least she looked hot!

    HA HA HA HA HA that is TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO funny.
    You just know that girl got ripped to shreds the minute they walked off stage. I pity her. We've all heard about her wrath.
    As for the Asslee moment, I must have missed it??

    I don't think any other woman in the world shares her sense of fashion.

    I wouldn't like to be in the backup singer's position. It's hard to see because she wears sunglasses, but not hard to guess that Mariah is irritated.
    I wonder if the backup singer has been fired.

    Oh, how I loved the old Mariah. I wish she'd look deep in her soul and realize she's not 25 and that her fans are all ok with that.

    LOL I am sure that poor (if it WAS a mistake) back up singer is looking for a new job. But LOVE the way she told her LOL.

    her songs blow, and she is repulsive.
    and sydney, no one shares her sense of fashion, because she dresses like a tacky hot mess.
    i think it is funny that her track started early.
    i wish people would quit raving about her... touch my body sucks!!!

    One, she sucks live. She cant sing live anymore. She is washed up, sounded like hell.

    I think that was funny how she sang for them to stop singing her part - but she really did need the help.

    Hot mess!

    When is she going to snap and go crazy again? Britney is sane these days, someone needs to take the Crazy Place.

    And fyi, everytime I see Mariah, it feels like its 1990 again. She'll never learn how to dress.

    She can sing, but she is SO STUCK ON HERSELF. I'm sorry but lately she just reminds me more of a Paris Hilton. Come back down to Earth Mariah, your fans are what make and also can break you.

    I don't understand: If she was lip-synching, then how could she improvise the "Stop singing my part" line? Maybe she was really singing the whole time? I am a bit disappointed with the whole thing, though... #1 really?

    She looks great. A lot of times they can't really sing live anyway and some venues don't even allow it because the sound isn't set up properly to facilitate that.

    It is beyond my comprehension that she still has any fans. I like her one song and video for Honey and that was the only time she was appealing.

    cute dress; when Lindsey Blohan wore it months ago in different colors....lmfao@ the "sing my part"...I know for a fact she was terminated after that show and yes, Mariah needs a f****** stylist...she prides herself on being somewhat intelligent and actually writing her music which is cool but she's so delusional in many aspects of herself and her life

    OMG! Firstly, glad she got caught. She's not as perfect and amazing and she thinks she is. Secondly, I feel SO bad for the back-up singer. She must have gotten fired cause you know Mariah doesn't want anyone to upstage her. I must admit, she added that in pretty well. If I didn't read what was going to happen I would have just though wtf happened?
    It was kind of a low blow how she said at the end of video, I try to add something different everytime.
    Only positive, I LOVE the dress. Style + colour! I hate the song however

    I dont think its as much of an upstage situation as it is a - you are singing my part, who is singing your part situation. They should stay on their part so the harmony sounds right otherwise it looks bad on her, not the backup singer.

    I say good job, you look hot, the album is great!

    She's so annoying.
    And seriously, is it possible for her to ever wear anything that's not skin tight? She looks so skanky.
    I do not like her, I don't like her attitude, and I don't like her music.
    Also, does anyone else think she sounds like Pebbles, from the Flintstones, when she's singing the fast part of the song?

    Hmm, I've just noticed that she doesn't dance on stage anymore. All of the old performances (make it happen, honey & fantasy) I've seen, She used to be so active, energetic and bubbly. But now, she likes to stand there and make herself look pretty and barbie-like. Oh, mariah please do us all a favor, bring back your old self!!!

    I really don't see the appeal of her. She needs to give up the fight and stop dressing like she's 21 she's almost 40 I think. Secondly her songs are not good at all, yes her voice is nice, but get someone to write your songs for you so you look like you have a little bit of depth.

    Ahahaha ya that singer probably got fired after that! You could tell when she was going to do it too because she kept looking back like "ok stop now please". Guess the back up didn't get it so she had to improvise lol

    The dress was great, but the song was So. BORING. The most interesting part was where she sang to the backup singer; she seemed like a sassy CEO in charge of the stage. But then for the rest of the perf. she seemed so annoyed, and she should know better than to seem "annoyed at the help." Audiences don't want to see that (at least during a fun concert). Meh.

    HAHAHAHAHAHA!! I personally thought that was hilarious. She did a really good job of holding up her part, even when she and the back-up singer messed up, and she kept her cool... at least on stage Eye-wink And- I have to agree with Briggs- we all know she's got the pipes, so she can lip sing when she wants.
