A dude with sound experience said in the Reddit thread that in an outdoor venue with screaming fans you have to have an ear piece or really loud monitors or you can't hear the music and it's almost impossible to perform. She had neither.

Someone is getting super fired tonight.

That's a pathetic lame excuse. If you're a singer and performer you should have the rhythm and lyrics down like the back of your hand.

Did you know neither Getty, Pert, nor Alex ever wear ear pieces during any rush concert?

Because, like the rest of the pop singer who don't write their own lyrics and often lip sync and generally suck when it comes to being an actual musician, she doesn't know how to perform without a ton of help.

Really makes you appreciate the performance at Shea by The Beatles. That's real musicians.

Look on the bright side, if this derails her singing career badly enough, she may have to release a sex tape to get back relevant.

Why is her voice so deep now when she talks? Seems it wasn't like that before.

Ok, that's enough out of you pretending to know what you're taking about baw. The sound is being directed away from her and therefore she has no idea what is being played. Hence, the ear piece.

Someone in a band has the advantage of being able to hear their actual band behind them and also being able to turn around and look at the band for cues and whatnot.

I'll be the fist to admit that lip syncing pop shite is awful, but this isn't a good example to dig in your heels. She was basically prancing around deaf.

If this was just her missing an earpiece to hear herself singing people wouldn't care. It's more Mariah Carey being regarded as some masterful singer, and it being exposed she lip syncs. She may have been good at one point, but she's way past her prime. Even if she had her earpiece, she wouldn't be singing, it would be the voice track. The earpiece would be there just to let her know when to move her mouth. I have no sympathy for her, she got exposed.

Reports said she showed up too late and missed the sound check.

Man, that was tough to watch.
Maybe she was drunk. That will at least give her an excuse.

She's a diva and I'm glad that this happened to her of all people. Just hilariously bad. Hopefully it tanks her stupid reality show too.
