What a complete embarrassment. I feel bad for her, but why even take up the offer if you're not even going to TRY to sing?
With this and her crazy ass tweets recently I think she's losing it
When I heard someone bombed times square I didn't realize it'd be mariah
Got to see this dumpster fire live as it happened. We weren't sure if she was just losing it or high or drunk or what. She had her earpiece out of her ear and kept just fixing her hair the whole performance
curse of 2016
finland had darude sandstorm and NY had this
i'm very disappointed
Sounds like sound engineers screwed up with monitoring. Can't blame her for this one, she basically couldn't hear the song at all. It's like trying to sing while you are deaf.

Hey Ringo of the Beatles couldn't hear the music either and very often didn't know where he was in the song and relied on watching the other 3's mannerisms to figure it out

It's kinda hard to do this when you're the only live musician on stage.
This isn't really on her, the fault lies squarely on the engineers, it's impossible to hear yourself on a stage like that without monitors, and if you can't listen to yourself you can't sing in tune. This is a really inopportune fuckup but it's not unheard of nor could she do anything to solve it.

That was a band. This is a single live performer.
Imagine trying to bake a cake while the recipe is read to you by someone with a thick, incomprehensible accent. That's what's basically been happening here.

Basically this, people rarely understand the purpose of monitors until you're actually on stage. The speakers, no matter how loud it may be to the audience, are actually pointing [I]towards[/I] the audience, basically nothing but a muffled leak of the sound is what you can hear by standing behind them. In a closed, small space, you may not need additional monitors because the sound will bounce off the walls back to you, but in a huge open space like this, you're not getting anything back from the speakers. You can't really put the speakers behind the stage because, considering how loud it has to be to work in an open space and the distance you'll be from it, you'll be deaf within a week.
