Mariah Carey took the stage last night to perform her song "Obsessed" on America's Got Talent. Following an introduction by the show's host, her husband Nick Cannon, she took the spotlight to belt out the tune in a rendition that lacked her usual polish. The music seemed to slow and stop, and Mariah even looked a little befuddled at times. It clearly wasn't her best, but tell us what you think of Mariah's live performance — was it totally entertaining or a total trainwreck?

I didn't think it was that bad.. I think part of the problem is the song seems almost choppy.. but yea, I am really not even a Mariah fan, but I can't hate on the performance.. The end was cute
1So that's why Nick's the host. To market Mariah's new CD. Good god, how stupid do they think we are?
2i miss the old mariah! early 90's mariah!
3Maybe I missed something, but I didn't see how the performance was lackluster at all. I'm not just saying this because I'm a huge Mariah fan (she's had some truly bad performances that I won't deny), but this one was good! I thought she looked cute and poised and sounded great, esp. at the end with her whistle note.
4I think this is completely tasteless. I just don't understand why she needs to be any part of this show. Can she not promote her own music.
5My issue with the performance is the insane difference in energy between her and her dancers. They act like they're in a dance video, but she acts like she's singing a ballad. She either needs to perform at a higher pace, or stick with the lower-paced tracks.
6she is a hot mess. what happened to her vision of love days??
7Was it a great performance? No. But Mariah doens't do much besides walk around and sing. Ever (just look at her videos). She's not a major entertainer who lipsyncs (Britney) nor does she have the kind of music that you can really rock out to while performing (No Doubt). That being said, I wouldn't call it "tasteless" - I felt like her being on the show was actually showing support for her husband. Why else would she do a show like that?
8yuck, i couldn't even finish watching the whole video.
9It was a dull performance. I only watched half of it. It lost my interest.
Also, was she lip-syncing? I thought Mariah didn't do that. I thought she sang live in all her performances.
10I just don't understand her clothes. Not like the woman has ever had style, but I think I wore that same outfit to a sorority mixer 8 years ago.
11hate her clothes! and the guys dancing..terrible.
12Maybe she's nervous she's going to bring down more of Eminem's wrath. haha I was nervous just watching her!
13This b*tch is shook.. I can't even finish watching the whole thing
14She's never looked more desperate. She is not accepting her age gracefully. Who the FCK is managing her now?
15Mariah needs to get un-obsessed with herself. She, like so many others, think their looks are what it is all about and their looks will makeup for a bad performance (boring!!!!). The trouble is they are a dime a dozen.
16I would rather watch someone who truly gives it there all - regardless of their looks or how they are dressed. Give me true individuality along with true talent anytime.
I only watched a few seconds because I couldn't take anymore of her irritating voice. Her performances aren't that great anymore. Her voice doesn't sound the same as it did back in the old days.
Mariah is obsessed with herself. But she needs to stop pronto so she can get her voice together like it should be.
17outfit cheap lookin...heels gorgeous...she never could dance...vocals great especially towards the end...she worked da stage WAY more than she usually does...people just dont want her to succeed but hey she has more #1's than any solo artist EVER..beatles have about two or three more than her...so f*ck off.da b*tch is still bad...dont hate congratulate MIMI biggest selling female artist of all time...fake boobs AND ALL
18this wasnt as bad as ppl are saying it is. im not just saying that b/c im a huge MC fan but ive seen worse.
(whoever sayed she was lip synching must be delusional b/c wouldnt it actually sound better?)
the ending was cute, they look happy, but i think promoting it was a little much.
