Could tonight mark the Emancipation of Mimi’s vocals?
Mariah Carey‘s much publicised Las Vegas residency, ‘Mariah #1 To Infinity,’ kicks off tonight at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace and it’s sounding like she may silence the naysayers.
TMZ have “obtained” a recording of audio from the diva’s final dress rehearsal last night and her voice sounds refreshed, revitalised, and projecting power singing songs such as ‘Emotions.’
Listen for yourself below…
Now, of course, this is Mariah; as such it’s anyone’s guess how much of that was legit live.
Still, it’s Vegas, so who’s fussed about pre-recorded vocals? After all, it’s largely about the “show” and “spectacle.”
In all fairness, though, the parts that did sound live are the best she’s sounded in a long, long time. Clearly, her preparation regime for this project (which we hear includes a new vocal coach and special teas) are helping in earnest.
As keen appreciators of her talent and legacy, we hope the whole vegas venture helps redeem her from some of the missteps in recent years.

Yaaaaassss bish!!!
It sounds like it hurts when she sings:(
And c-error seems like she has a jaw problem every time she/he try’s to speak, idk if it’s the sad 22k album sales or she still trying to get the public to accept the fact that she/he is a transgender.
She is so annoying with all that screaming.
I’ve heard better singing at a cow pasture….
Biiiiiitttvvvvcchhhh I’m weak. Next year she won’t even be able yo talk. By the way Nicki Minaj could neva be a barbie biiiiiii
the real tea is that you Stan for lil Kim who has not had even a moderate hit in almost 8 years and has been promising y’all an album since 2008 ain’t none of my business it’s tea though
Glad u said it like that cause it’s obvious your clone/flop fav can’t sing or rap nor can she get a platinum album but wait isn’t she the queen? Billboard hot100 says otherwise.
aww i wasn’t reading you boo <3 I like Lil Kim but the truth is the truth..
All that damn screaming…????
And your a Keri Stan…. How many gold albums does Keri flop Wilson have? Cause I know she has (0) platinum ones (giggles) and do u want to go back to that live show she did trying her hardest to sing a Whitney song but embarrassed herself? Oh ok have a seat and listen to a Beyoncé cd I’m sure your fav is doing that as we speak trying to learn how to actually sing.????
Slay a bit Mamas
THE F****** QUEEN!!!!!!!!!!
Mimi is a legend, people need to start respecting her and her legacy. And she sounds great.
I roger that. Mariah Carey is one of the greatest, 25 years and still going strong.
Jackie 19k-22k
LOOOOOOL
Lmfao!!! ????????????????????????????
#DEAD LMAO!
You know it’s prerecorded. The studio vocalist never was a great LIVE performer.
Just like Cokeheadanna. Pre-recorded or not, Mariah sounds light years better than the coke head b!+ch and the human fertilizer
85% of those vocals were live. The only major vocal she uses that is prerecorded is that long Hero belt.
Also, how can you point fingers at her using some prerecorded vocals when Rihanna doesn’t even bother to prerecord and just straight up uses the studio backtrack for the entire performance?
The truth is you need to go watch her snl rehearsal from 1990
Plus Mariah Carey was the only singer to sing live on soul train…
But, I do wonder what did she do to mess up her voice!?
Go awwf Mimi!!
Ciara on track to sell 21-24k with her new album #JACKIE ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
She sounds good. Why are fans of nocalists even hating?
.
*presses play on that horrible march madness performance*
.
Lmaoooo
Nawwww! She still doesn’t sound good. Her and that tired ole’ pitch. Like can she do anything else??
I couldn’t handle the screeching after the seconds part of the audio, but good luck Mimi.
And the fans of notorious lip synchers are commenting because…?
Lipsynch or not, it’s still their own voice. And they have already proven countless times before that they can sing live.
b**** Beyonce has proved that she can sing live on several occasions. while Rihanna gets on stage gasping for air and screeching within the first thirty seconds. She should consider lip syncing full time like she did for her grammy performance #Nocalist
I know, right? The only fanbase that I will consider to come for Mariah is the HIVE along with Celine and Whitney’s respective fanbases, because atleast those women can SANG!!!
This comment is a reply to Slay_Hive’s post.
As if Byonce would be in Whitney, Mariah and Celine´s level though 🙂
Sounds like she’s been rehearsing and laying off the alcohol which dries the vocal cords. Also I am glad to see the confidence slowly coming back in MC. I wish her nothing but the best with this residency. On another note Sam why must you always find negativity when report something on MC?
She sounds great! I cant get over these haters tho. Its like even if it was FLAWLESS people would have something negative to say, yet she always will sound better than most of your favs. I just dont get it. Give kudos when their due. Drag her ass when she really f**** up. And that is coming from a true Mariah Stan!
Yesss the queeeeeeeeeen!!
She usually sounds terrible at the beginning of a tour, so if she already sounds this good then I can only imagine how great she’ll sound once she gets into the groove of things by the halfway mark.
She sounds great. I hope she can continue to sound this good during her residency so she can extend it.
Oh,let me see.If she sounds good,it’s either prerecorded or lipped,if she sounds bad,it’s live…OK,meanwhile she remains unbothered
IKR? People just love to hate for no damn reason.
She must’ve been doing something that is helping her voice because the clips I’ve heard, she’s been sounding great! TGT, this is live. Stop being a damn hater all the time, my goodness. Mariah has had a lot of off days, I mean a lot, in recent years but as she’s proven numerous times; never count her out! Good luck tonight Mariah! Can’t wait to see you at the BBMAs.
what a annoying k***, i would have thrown a tomato at her mis-shaped head to shut those horrible screeching sounds coming out of its mouth
She once had a nice singing voice, too bad she has the personality of a brick.
Amazing. The Hero belt is lipped, but she has hit it live on The Elusive Chanteuse Tour, so she gets no shade from me. I can’t wait to see you tonight Mimi! I’m about to board my plane RIGHT NOW!
Yes Mariah!!! Legendary indeeed!
love u mimi sing your face off tonight baby!!
Dry vocal
And of course Sam being the one writing the post about Mariah? LMAO It´s ok hun, you´re a real fan 🙂
She sounds great! Those whistles omg!
Also, how can you shade Mariah, Celine, Madonna and the likes and their current sales (after decades of slayage none of your faves will see) when you support so many flops? Ciara will sell 20k copies this week. I mean WOW. How do you manage to have the nerve to shade Mariah? And to critizise Mariah´s voice while praising CIARA´s vocal performances? LMAO
She sounds constipated.
It’s alright and she needs to get a better vocal coach
I love me some mariah, the lambs should be proud right now
