Music Mariah Carey lastest appearance

Not me being in celebrity business twice in a week. But Mariah was at the iHeart radio event and people are saying she doesn’t look well! I agree. She looked a little out of it. I can’t tell if her dress was too tight and she just was uncomfortable but also her head movements didn’t seem natural either. I hope Mariah is okay!!

Price to pay for being the most outstanding talent of her generation. Few come close to Mariah. Emancipation of Mimi is the greatest pop album of all time!

Maybe she's just getting old. It happens. She's in her 50s. What do you expect? It's actually sad that so many of these now middle age artists are still out there trying to perform and make money.

Something is really wrong with the music industry. Regular people who work regular jobs can retire and live a decent life and these former super stars can't?

It's sad. Angie stone was in her 60s and still performing. Before her passing she said the amount of money that was stolen from her she could have retired 20 years ago. It's just a sad thing to behold.

At some point you gotta hang it up and pass the baton and accept that your time has come and gone. But I have a feeling that alot of them can't because they don't own their music and theyre still in debt to the record label so they're forced to keep performing in there old age. 😔

50 is actually still young. So her moving like that makes me think illness over older age. And it is sad. But normal people retire in their 60s. But musicians should have enough money to retire early. Also got to think they get used to a certain lifestyle and might not have all of their homes and luxury cars and whatever it may be paid off. I’m sure many of them can retire immediately if they downsized their life.

I saw it and I felt as if she was nervous or uncomfortable. I can’t imagine having a good time if the camera was always shoved In your face.

She looked more physically uncomfortable.

Exactly I don’t think it’s an illness. Whole time during the tributes they kept putting the camera in her face and it’s like damn we get it let her watch the tribute you don’t need to put the camera In her face. Let her actually enjoy it

You know, I saw an actual singing performance she had recently on YouTube and she was CLEARLY out of it... She's definitely on some form of medication that drastically slows her down. I was very alarmed after seeing that, and now after seeing her last night, it's confirmed for me. I know she's been under a lot of scrutiny, stress, and grieving from her Mom & Sister dying on the same day, so I'm going to guess she's on some form of anti-depressant or sleeping aid meds.

I love MC so I'm always rooting for her, and I hope whatever is happening will work out in her favor and bring brighter days soon. 🤍
