Mariah Carey Discusses New Year's Performance Debacle

Mariah Carey is joining the discussion about her disastrous New Year’s Eve performance.

While performing during Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest, Carey was victim of technical difficulties. She initially didn’t seem to fazed by it, tweeting:

“S*** happens ?. Have a happy and healthy new year everybody! ? Here’s to making more headlines in 2017 ?”

Carey is now speaking to Entertainment Weekly about the incident.

Carey’s reps were quick to claim the TV production staff dropped the ball when it came to making sure her in-ear monitors worked. Meanwhile, Dick Clark Productions denies any responsibility for Carey’s inability to hear herself.

“I’m of the opinion that Dick Clark would not have let an artist go through that,” Mariah tells EW about the incident. “And he would have been as mortified as I was in real time.” Clark, who started the show 45 years ago, died in 2012.

Carey says the mishap won’t stop her from performing live at future events. However, she admits, “It will make me less trusting of using anyone outside of my own team.”
