Here's the deal: She always lipsynchs the high notes at 2:37. Sometimes the backing track that is supposed to kick in is too low, but this time, it didn't kick in AT ALL. So she didn't lose her voice. It was just a technical malfunction.
I almost cried for her...people fail to realize that celebrities and icons aren't perfect...she's sung all of these high notes and whistle tones for YEARS. If her voice goes out or if the music stopped on her...SO WHAT!? She can do that...Get off her back and be happy that she at least tried and sung for US. After all she did not have too
What you all don't realize is that she's singing so high pitched that the frequency is 20,000Hz< above what human ears can detect! Mariah you sneak, you! Supreme Songbird Queen. :D
Ms. Toni Braxton is the Ultimate Diva who still got her voice till this day and she can still sing live like no other. She is a winner to me . Does not lipsing !!!!!!!!
***** /watch?v=eFNlE9YviLU /watch?v=4uWZzNYo8so Those are two of the instances that I've found on RUclips where she lip syncs. There are definitely more, however there aren't that many videos of those moments on RUclips unfortunately. There're also various articles regarding her lip-syncing at the Flamingo Hotel in 2006/7. Don't be asking me to do "a better research". I don't make statements without the receipts. Here you go.
imsnowbored I said she is constantly which mean not so much . This is more like disco uptempo song ..But Mariah Carey have been struggle for years. Let keep her in prayer.
I honestly think a lot of people including myself could of done better haha. If you really think that was good including the part she sings "messing up my words to my own song and I don't even care" you need a reality check that was bad! And I like Mariah but wow that's awful
really that's your come back?....punctuation attacks!!. OMG I have learned my lesson asking if this clown can hear correctly and because "it" doesn't have a proper answer "it" thinks its smart and funny talking about punctuation lmao. Ok so you understand something...."capitalization" because to say that performance was good clearly shows you are tone deaf.
The fact is 2:38 the Audio provided to FOH aka the audience was cut and it continued for the broadcast aka the viewers at home. There is no fail hair. Simply live production!
The Queen Diva on Earth. Indubitably Mariah Carey❤❤❤. She is the best even with her flaws not hitting the tunes live it is still uniquely perfect and much more better than how other divas deliver it❤ . That is the magic of Mariah Carey.. Life Saver❤❤❤
She has said she has up and down days. This was clearly a bad one. I saw her in central park for GMA and in the warmups before they started filming she sounded great but they dubbed her on TV anyway. I love that she can't bring herself to look at the audience when she can't hit the note at 2:38 so she just stares up for the rest of the song
Why does people like to be negative and say hateful remarks? Mariah doesnt need to prove herself. Her songs are loved and listened by many generations. Cant people notice her songs are so hard to sing. And thats her specialty among the rest :-) Thank God for MC.
Love Mariah still; and "Always Be My Baby," is still my damn song! She needs get a trainer and get it back. She can still sing, though she's not practiced as far as I'm concerned. She's earned her Diva Status!
I agree that Toni is ultimate Diva because the point is no matter who has a higher register Toni is true to her vocal range and skill set and has always been consisten. Her voice is hers. In studio and out is why she can sing live and hit all the same notes the same way we hear it on the radio. Maria can no longet do tbat. So weather Mari . Notes are higher is irrelevant because if thats her pitch and key she shouldb able to do.it all the time eeffortless just like Toni hits her notes and stays in her effortlessly all the time
Wait... Did she completely lose her voice at 2:38 ? And it looks like she's pregnant too. She looks nothing like her album cover. #PhotoShoppedToDa90s lol
JayBeeTV Her album with that year old photo shopped cover art is coming out this year tho. But we don't have to wonder why she didn't take a resent pic.
"Ghost Stories" blasted in at No. 1 with the year's biggest debut -- 383,000 sold in the week ending May 25, while Gilbert started at No. 2 with 211,000. The two albums might sell, respectively, 80,000 and 65,000 in their second weeks. Only 20,000 copies separates Mariah from #1 and being #3!!
:( I feel sad for Mariah it seems like everybody is always talking about her lip syncing and stuff I feel like she want get the praise she deserve until she dead and gone which is so sad we should praise her while she alive even if she lip syncing she is a freaking legend and has done so much in music
honestly, mariah carey in my book is still the best singer out there.. mariah carey still serving it as if she has something to prove just because music is her passion..its upsetting for ppl to be so mean yet when you listen to her music all she is giving is love... yea the"thirsty" song..BUT...do you guys see how she still gave us mariah..i always can see mariahs true colors through her music is not her trying to be something she is not.... its her showing her creativity.. mariahs resume is the best out there.. no shade. but the good singers out there are still trying to get to her level....mariahs always guna be untouchable... she can lip all she want on the tv shows all she want... shes nervous and ppl already have their opinion on her.. her voice obviously changed. but everyone who is a REAL fan willl know that mariah carey is saving her voice.... i always look forward to her concert you can tell she not as nervous and she is in front of the same ppl who she insprired so she more in her comfort zone and mariah carey be SANGING lol. love my girl... sorrry needed a moment.... :) :) .. ppl... lets just enjoy the music.. :) (while he listens to mariah careys song "faded") love it..:)
I am a Mariah fan ever since. But some people need to understand that this video is raw - the original. What the today's show aired has the dubbed version of the high notes of the song. Are you not wondering why she sang the high notes "effortlessly" but struggled with the low notes?
LOL came back because of my YT pings lol 1:45 is by far the best part of this video. She looks over at the singer like, "hit that note for me bitch or yah fired" & the lady looks back like "why am I not famous & this mess is?" lol Of course Mimi is a legend I'm just joking here but she definitely was a mess back in 2014 (trouble at home will do that). Okay!
wait.. i think the one made this video intentionally get the audio off from the bridge... because from the other videos of this that i watched she didnt loose her voice...
She sang live in the beginning but by the end she lipped. It's fine we got many iconic moments in this performance like: "See i said Ooh Darling even back then" "Hey yo Good Angle" "Messing up the words to my own song and i don't care" And the funny high note that projected no sound
The part where no sound was there is usually when the playback comes. Perhaps they would take that as 'technical issue' and then add the playback during the editing anyways.lol~ poor Mariah..but I guess this won't be the last of it.:p
Hold up.!!! This as been altered or something because on other videos of this same performance her voice is there, even when it aired on tv her voice is there.
This is edited. It is strange that Mariah lipsynced quite easy part "Because you'll always be my baby." But did harder part "Yes we will linger on." Also we can hear small mariah's voice. This is unremoved part that the editor failed to remove. First of all it doesn't make sense. Furthermore there are some evidents that proves this is edited.
Nelson Salvado nawww i was there and we all thought it was a mic issue but u can hear her crack or somn at 2:50 at the climax and it was much louder irl and the backup singers were much louder
im a true lamb and im not bashing her or anything like that, but as a true fan I know when she is using a playback, try to check this link /watch?v=S4oeHInpa3A , this was GMA always be my baby performance last yr 05/24/2013, skip the vid till 23:57 , same thing as what happened here, she is lipping a playback. again for the record, im a true lamb and I love her to death
Baby, believe me it's only a matter of time..time................................................................................................. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
I sing in shows and I wouldn't DARE sing this early in the AM. Whitney actually refused to perform for these type shows (GMA/TODAY) because no ones voice is primed.
Lmao at all u haters ,I was there and u could clearly hear her singing LIVE ,when there were tech issues u still could hear her ,sucks that u hating ass people would love to retire mariah for your own shitty reasons but sorry as long as she's making music all her true fans will support her !
What about Patti Labelle? She has been around for quite some time along with Anita Baker and correct me if im wrong, they still have their voices. I really like Mariah but money has changed her. Diva much? I mean come on Mariah!
there were a ton of people in the audience, why is this the only recording with the silent part? It's a pretty egregious fuck up, why weren't there a ton of vines and shit titled "mariah carey vocal fail lolz"
I'm not going to try to defend Mariah here for lip singing on her high notes. I know that she's been doing that for so long, so now I'm kind of 'immunized'. What I would like to point out here though, is that it was the crews' own fault that the AR didn't come out at that moment. This happened in 2008 too, when Mariah appeared on Good Morning America and performed 'Touch My Body'. The AR didn't come out at the right moment, so she had to sing over her own pre-recorded voice, which was undeniably humiliating for a professional singer with more than 20 years of career. The crews needed to step up and try to make a nice experience for both crowds and of course, a singer. BTW, it's possible that Mariah didn't know the AR wasn't coming out. When singers sing on the stage, they almost always wear ear monitors. Probably the AR was going off on her ear monitor. It just didn't come out from the speakers at the stage. If she'd known, she would've sung the part somehow. Not the same way she did on her daydream album, but somehow.
It was broken a while back and still is recovering. I think it happened during a video shoot if im not mistaken but she wanted some type of fashionable slinky/support for it.
FallenAngel DarkSoul no, it wasn't broken. But she did seriously injure herself (I'm pretty sure it was more like dislocating her shoulder, along with some nerve damage or something like that). In any event, she was wearing a sling for a while, then once she tarted to heal she switched to wearing a more fashionable glove/sleeve..you know Mariah doesn't like "bleakness"..lol
To all those who hate mariah carey and to the one that make this fake video to make people think she doesn't get to her high notes you all can see the real video that shows she can!!!!!! And those who are smart and won't fall for this stupid joke so come on lambs give her as many views and likes as possible on the original video that shows her true voice and potential not this crap!!!!!!!
She needs to take 1 year off from speaking and or using her voice to get rid of her vocal nodules or she can just have the surgery and she'll be back to normal. Her real fans will still support her but will also let her know she needs to get it fixed rather than patronizing her and telling her she still sounds better than ever. She's like Kobe Bryant with an injured ankle. She just needs to recover.
Here's the deal: She always lipsynchs the high notes at 2:37. Sometimes the backing track that is supposed to kick in is too low, but this time, it didn't kick in AT ALL. So she didn't lose her voice. It was just a technical malfunction.
1:55 "Messing up the words of my own song and I don't care" LMAO!!!
I almost cried for her...people fail to realize that celebrities and icons aren't perfect...she's sung all of these high notes and whistle tones for YEARS. If her voice goes out or if the music stopped on her...SO WHAT!? She can do that...Get off her back and be happy that she at least tried and sung for US. After all she did not have too
2:38 is like me in my room listening to this song on my iPod and "singing", dramatic hand gestures and all LOL
What you all don't realize is that she's singing so high pitched that the frequency is 20,000Hz< above what human ears can detect! Mariah you sneak, you! Supreme Songbird Queen. :D
I love the back up singers. They were on point
I always come back to this classic hahaha
The croak from her throat at the bit where the playback doesnt kick in sends me! 😂😂😂😭
All I can say is wow!! Watching this and what was aired on the today show, there is for sure some editing that was done.
I appreciate MC as a whole from good to bad. Life Is life and I truly can say I enjoy this talented person. #DOYOURTHING
Ms. Toni Braxton is the Ultimate Diva who still got her voice till this day and she can still sing live like no other. She is a winner to me . Does not lipsing !!!!!!!!
Toni has lipsynced before. :o
imsnowbored
when?...She is Diva who is always consistant when it come to singing live...please do a better research
***** /watch?v=eFNlE9YviLU
/watch?v=4uWZzNYo8so
Those are two of the instances that I've found on RUclips where she lip syncs. There are definitely more, however there aren't that many videos of those moments on RUclips unfortunately. There're also various articles regarding her lip-syncing at the Flamingo Hotel in 2006/7. Don't be asking me to do "a better research". I don't make statements without the receipts. Here you go.
imsnowbored
I said she is constantly which mean not so much . This is more like disco uptempo song ..But Mariah Carey have been struggle for years. Let keep her in prayer.
imsnowbored
here are Toni Braxton 2014 Live performance ..no lipsing : /watch?v=rIh07YTupUQ
:/watch?v=CRzotwiYnBM
:/watch?v=CRzotwiYnBM
I was there! I drove 8hours and stood outside for 6 to see MC. ♥♥♥♥
Mariah, you did great, people hate over the littlest things. LIKE YA'LL CAN DO BETTER!!!!!
I honestly think a lot of people including myself could of done better haha. If you really think that was good including the part she sings "messing up my words to my own song and I don't even care" you need a reality check that was bad! And I like Mariah but wow that's awful
They only wish they could do better! There jealous...that's why they hate over all those little things!
***** do you have a hearing problem? haha
Will R Ogilvie Do you have a capitalization problem? The last time I checked, all sentences begin with a capital letter. hahaha
really that's your come back?....punctuation attacks!!. OMG I have learned my lesson asking if this clown can hear correctly and because "it" doesn't have a proper answer "it" thinks its smart and funny talking about punctuation lmao. Ok so you understand something...."capitalization" because to say that performance was good clearly shows you are tone deaf.
She may fail all the time but I'll still love her no matter what...
The fact is 2:38 the Audio provided to FOH aka the audience was cut and it continued for the broadcast aka the viewers at home. There is no fail hair. Simply live production!
Sad to see legends fall, if she saw this 15 years ago she wouldn't of believed her voice would fade like that, hope it never happens to Beyoncé.
The Queen Diva on Earth. Indubitably Mariah Carey❤❤❤. She is the best even with her flaws not hitting the tunes live it is still uniquely perfect and much more better than how other divas deliver it❤ . That is the magic of Mariah Carey.. Life Saver❤❤❤

2:38 that was a good pretending #shame
Ulol

People if you listen closely she hit the notes the mic went out or either the quality of this video camera its being recorded on!
I agree that Toni is ultimate Diva because the point is no matter who has a higher register Toni is true to her vocal range and skill set and has always been consisten. Her voice is hers.

Lipsync at 2:39 in dubbed version but Ankward... I love you Mariah!💞
She sounded good to me and i'm DEAD at "get the good angle"
OH. MY. GOD.
Wait... Did she completely lose her voice at 2:38 ? And it looks like she's pregnant too. She looks nothing like her album cover. #PhotoShoppedToDa90s lol
If a girl did her research shed know those photos were taken last year when she filmed the #beautiful video and her body was on point.
JayBeeTV Her album with that year old photo shopped cover art is coming out this year tho. But we don't have to wonder why she didn't take a resent pic.
Recent? Spell it right please. Every cover of every album is photoshopped. Get over it.
yes she did hahahahahahaha . Soo funny
That's playback gone wrong.
Don't be naive people. This fan tape is edited with her audio cut out. It's not that complicated
"Ghost Stories" blasted in at No. 1 with the year's biggest debut -- 383,000 sold in the week ending May 25, while Gilbert started at No. 2 with 211,000. The two albums might sell, respectively, 80,000 and 65,000 in their second weeks.

good job for editing this video and makin it look so real . just keep on hatin losers . Mariah is Mariah no matter what you say !
And that technical problem maybe but thats fine :) love u mariah still did great!
I Love You Mariah Carey :))) You are Amazing
This is where haters come to hate I see. If you don't like mariah, then you're being the pathetic ones taking the time to judge her.
LOL came back because of my YT pings lol 1:45 is by far the best part of this video. She looks over at the singer like, "hit that note for me bitch or yah fired" & the lady looks back like "why am I not famous & this mess is?" lol Of course Mimi is a legend I'm just joking here but she definitely was a mess back in 2014 (trouble at home will do that). Okay!
Whooo Jesus take it!!!!
I was there when they were taping this.
How was it? Is it real?
yes, how was it?
wait.. i think the one made this video intentionally get the audio off from the bridge... because from the other videos of this that i watched she didnt loose her voice...
2:38!!
Ik this is late, but she probably wasn’t allowed to lip sync so her team probably dubbed the track over the tv version
She sang live in the beginning but by the end she lipped. It's fine we got many iconic moments in this performance like:
"See i said Ooh Darling even back then"
"Hey yo Good Angle"
"Messing up the words to my own song and i don't care"
And the funny high note that projected no sound
The problem is ont the audio, microphone or this stuff. This proves that it's live and not lipsync!!!!!1
Mariah si vinikajúca speváčka Waw
It sounds live to me, but her mic got cut off for a bit?
Damn :(
C'mon guys. No need to attack her cause of her weight. It wasn't terrible, stop exaggerating. This is coming from a less than casual MC fan.
The part where no sound was there is usually when the playback comes. Perhaps they would take that as 'technical issue' and then add the playback during the editing anyways.lol~ poor Mariah..but I guess this won't be the last of it.:p
what in the entire hell was that?! LOL
Hold up.!!!
This as been altered or something because on other videos of this same performance her voice is there, even when it aired on tv her voice is there.

She wasnt prepared thts what im going with
Wow. Good camera.
Lmfaoooooo
Omgggggg!!!! :deadbanana:
Go purchase Toni Braxton and Babyface New album #LoveMarriageAndDivorce in store now and Itunes you will not be disaponited if you want #RealRnB
EpicFail#
The celine dion fans edited the video.
How dare you! lol
ROFLMFAOx!!!
yes this is edited esp at the bridge.. they intentionally take the audio off at the bridge of the song.. so pathetic people
Nelson Salvado You can't take the voice off without taking the crowd off with it!! This was not edited it was a cell phone video!
Nelson Salvado nawww i was there and we all thought it was a mic issue but u can hear her crack or somn at 2:50 at the climax and it was much louder irl and the backup singers were much louder
its just a sound mic problem! maybe
The timing of the mic malfunctioning during the meatiest part of the song seems highly suspicious if you ask me.
I know, no one asked me.
haha
Chante Moore Still Got it Though, as well as Toni Braxton!
Oh gosh! who edited this?????LOL
LMAO i can't at 2:38 bitch is faking it, thinking that the playback was on
Oh God! It has edited!
YIKES. lol Poor Mariah. 2:40
im a true lamb and im not bashing her or anything like that, but as a true fan I know when she is using a playback, try to check this link /watch?v=S4oeHInpa3A , this was GMA always be my baby performance last yr 05/24/2013, skip the vid till 23:57 , same thing as what happened here, she is lipping a playback.
again for the record, im a true lamb and I love her to death
I think her mic got turned off
How far along is Mimi here? I had no idea she was pregnant again.
Baby, believe me it's only a matter of time..time................................................................................................. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
I sing in shows and I wouldn't DARE sing this early in the AM. Whitney actually refused to perform for these type shows (GMA/TODAY) because no ones voice is primed.

You try hitting a high note early in the morning.
This is an edited video by some haters, CHECK OUT THE ORIGINAL ON THE TODAY SHOW SITE www.today.com/id/3041478/#55191321
there were a ton of people in the audience, why is this the only recording with the silent part? It's a pretty egregious fuck up, why weren't there a ton of vines and shit titled "mariah carey vocal fail lolz"
Bad day?
I'm not going to try to defend Mariah here for lip singing on her high notes. I know that she's been doing that for so long, so now I'm kind of 'immunized'. What I would like to point out here though, is that it was the crews' own fault that the AR didn't come out at that moment.

We all know this is the real version. The other one is dubbed... SO SAD.
LMFAOOOO
What's the matter with her right arm? What's that thing around it?
It was broken a while back and still is recovering. I think it happened during a video shoot if im not mistaken but she wanted some type of fashionable slinky/support for it.
FallenAngel DarkSoul no, it wasn't broken. But she did seriously injure herself (I'm pretty sure it was more like dislocating her shoulder, along with some nerve damage or something like that). In any event, she was wearing a sling for a while, then once she tarted to heal she switched to wearing a more fashionable glove/sleeve..you know Mariah doesn't like "bleakness"..lol
Kathryn Mullings Yes, it was broken. She had a hairline fracture in her arm.
She wanna battle with britney to fight who is the best playback ever
kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
REAL video! www.today.com/id/3041478/ns/today-toyota_concert_series_on_today#55191321
wow what happened at 2:38 lol
I'm certain I am one of her biggest fans and supporters but I have to say that 2:38 issue was Bad!
watch the original on www.today.com/id/3041478/#55191321 this video is to make yall think she sucks but she doesn't.
To all those who hate mariah carey and to the one that make this fake video to make people think she doesn't get to her high notes you all can see the real video that shows she can!!!!!! And those who are smart and won't fall for this stupid joke so come on lambs give her as many views and likes as possible on the original video that shows her true voice and potential not this crap!!!!!!!
She IS talented and she CAN sing but WAKE UP you diehard fans...defending her on this will not make it look any less embarrassing.
Did her voice drop out as she attempted the whistles or what? Oh, man.........this is so sad. :(
Is she pregnant ?
u__u
poor she's over
She needs to take 1 year off from speaking and or using her voice to get rid of her vocal nodules or she can just have the surgery and she'll be back to normal. Her real fans will still support her but will also let her know she needs to get it fixed rather than patronizing her and telling her she still sounds better than ever. She's like Kobe Bryant with an injured ankle. She just needs to recover.
Supposed to be live and yet not one person reacts to the fact her voice just disappears. Bs
Ariana stole her at 2:40 :(
What the fuck was 2:38
LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
