Wendy Williams rarely minces her words when musing on Mariah Carey.
However, the singer found an ally in the former shock jock yesterday.
For, during her infamous “Hot Topics” segment, the talk show maven took up for Mimi following the backlash that surfaced after her woeful performance at the Rockefeller Center last week.
Speaking on the panned spectacle, the 50-year-old deemed it “not that bad” and added that Mariah “sounds better than Rihanna on her worst day”. Meow.
Watch it below…
Agree?

This bloated cow should retire… 🙁
She’s starting to look more and more like Lil Kim with sales of Ciara. 😆
LOL at her fans trying to defend her while my cat ran away as soon I clicked this video. Her voice cracks big time! She misses pretty much all the notes and she looks very uncomfortable and disturbed.Are you guys tone-deaf or what?
You are not a Beyhive. Scoot
I like how she kept fiddling with her earpiece every time she hit a flat note.
No gurl, its just you.
I see NO LIES IN WHAT MS WILLIAMS SAID!!! TRU T … ALOT OF THESE SINGERS ON THEIR WORST DAY SOUND BETTER THAN MS RIRI
welp…she may have a point
AMERICAN IDOL FAIL!!! B**TCH WOULDNT PASS ROUND #1. #TRUTH!!
😀 😀 😀
I don’t like r**** but I would rather listen to her than a cow moo off key for 4 minutes
Moomoo Carey looks like a jobless stripper. 😀
Wendy is looking for attention she trying again to diss Rihanna please go f*** yourself you he she looking ass don’t anyone wants to go on your sorry show
Oooop http://now-here-this.timeout.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/tumblr_llms9x4lvo1qz9npg.gif
Karma for shading other artists. Can’t sing, can’t dance, can’t act and can’t diet…what’s left for this over-rated diva of the 21 century?
😆
Mariah’s a legend, enough said, get off her back.
So are patti and Gladys and they sound stellar at 70!!!! Gtfoh d***
So?? Your point is? No one is the same! Go sit the f*** down..
Sam and his constant Rhianna and Mariah shade. Predictable.
@ all the trolls in this post, please stfu smh.
***I*** sing better than Rihanna on my worse day (and I can’t sing.)
She is a done deal. I feel bad for her fans. She keeps lying to them and herself. She CAN’T sing anymore. Time to hang your glittery dress and just enjoy being a stay-home mom for once. K bye.
Too bad $520 million can’t buy her voice back huh?
Her vocals are shot to hell. She’s only ruining her legacy with bad performances
A bish didn’t lie though. Mariah can outsing Riherpes into oblivion!
*plays Riherpes-Hero video*
Old washed up overrated botox diva! If she wasn’t so arrogant may be she wouldn’t get a backlash but she deserves all the diss with her high maintenance overrated ass!
She is a washed up has bin (if she ever was a bin). Look at her retarded fat face. Go away already. ugh
Why feel bad for her fans? We know she has good days and bad days. Been this way since 98. Of course trolls don’t see her singing emotions on her recent tour (live) and the many good days she had. But, honestly she doesn’t have to prove anything to haters, but for the fans and herself most importantly, don’t sing in the bad days. Other than that Mariah Carey is fine even if with bad vocals. She made her mark and her money. What have the trolls done?
you know tho old saying…payback is a b****… it might have gone better if she wasn’t such a diva.. showed up on time and be a professional…nope it’s diva time…phony as phony can be… all together now..let’s ride the subway cause so and so did it. she mad ppl wait the night before..and begged the tv ppl bring them back i’ll do it right now… stupid b**** ppl left..how can you bring them back? sound ppl can make you sound good or bad…in this case she needed the sound ppl she stood up…..the days are numbered here..the clocked has tocked…bye bye…ex diva girl…
You’re poor attempt to shady funny made it very hard to follow your point. But what I did catch was how bitter you seem in your own life. Let’s talk about that. The fact that people hold onto he “diva” attitude as if she is the only one who acts like that is ridiculous. They all have diva attitudes. Mariah, Whitney, Rihanna, BEYONCE, Nikki Minaj, and yes even little Ariana.
Let’s not mention the older women. Patti, Diana….
Please let’s stop
*Your* not you’re excuse me
Mariah sounds like that 50 year old black woman that wants to take the happy birthday song too far. Ha!
no lies detected,but I still prefer the studio version of rihanna
She swallowed too many of Nick Cannon’s nuts…. Now her voice is “Wild n’ Out”..
You all need to show Respect. Mariah is a LEGEND, stop saying she can’t sing cus she can. We all know she had problem with her Vocal Nodules. Let’s say that day was her worst day. It happens to Late Whitney Houston. I just Hope I doesn’t happen to Bey cus I don’t know what excuses TGJ & those bashing Mariah are gonna used. As for that old papa Wendell just becus Rihanna refuses to come to ur show doesn’t mean you’ve to say always says sh*t about her.
she is nothing like a saggy fat diva who stuck in the 90s. pathetic.
She’s a LEGEND and her Legacy & Memories will Forever Lives on 100yrs to Come. What Legacy do you have? If you don’t post ur sh*t here even for a day. Nobody even know you let alone will miss you. Her Birthdays will be celebrated & her achievements. You don’t have any so stop bashing her. Not a lambily but a #RihannaNavy
True dat…
Her single- flop
Her album-flop
Her tour-flop
Her perfume- never heard of
Her movie- what movie?
Her marriage- in the sewage.
😆
Wow that was almost as bad as Rihannhoe…
I Don’t like Rihanna for her vocals,
I like her because she is a bad b**** with great Pop music.
She should add what all fading singers do when they can no longer hit the high notes or cannot sing in tune. Backup singers!! They are there to fill in the gaps to make you look good! True, most of the fading talent add backup singers when they’re in their 70’s, but you’re never too young to cheat to stay in the public eye and quench your thirst for attention and admiration!!
Mariah just stay home, make MILF p0rn and be a mom and go back to singing in church.
🙁
Mariah needs to hire Jennifer Lopez’s PR machine and quick! If Jlo’s people can persuade millions of folks w/ seemingly good hearing to buy albums filled w/ sounds of cats fighting, then anything is possible!
😉 😉 😉
I mean if Whitney got a pass for poor vocals, why can’t Mariah? mariah has shown that she still has something in her. People just don’t like her because of the records she holds and the fact that their faves numbers don’t match. All I see is hypocrites in here. Saying payback is a b**** when all you people do is talk nasty and fight. Are you all better? I can not and will stop there
That comparison makes no sense. Rihanna has never been known or revered for her vocal abilities. Wendy is just reaching… Trying to stay relevant in a conversation that needs to end
Stick a fork in her, she’s done deal.
Time to feed that weird-looking babies and retire.
Wasting everyone’s time.
Since when is Rihanna anyone’s vocal bar? If you can’t sing better than her on your worse day, then you don’t even deserve to work the drive-thru menu at Taco Bell. So in the end, Wendy wasn’t defending Mariah by using Rihanna as an example of someone she can still outsing. All she was doing is pointing out how far she’s declined.
This shady old misguided bloated cow needs to stop embarrassing herself. Someone should slap her and tell her to fire those deadbeat “Yes Maam” ppl who work for her.
oo pathetic, self absorbed, snooty acting and immature. Still singing music for
teenagers instead of for her own age demographic. And the album cover is clearly extremely photo shopped and airbrushed. She has enough money between her and her husband. She needs to stay home and take care of those funny looking kids. Her 1st album ( when she was hungry and trying harder ) was her best and I still play it. Now she’s lazy and boring. Perhaps she should try gospel next.
😆
When your music and voice suck (great???? where have you been hiding???) and you can no longer count on your s** appeal, your career is over!
🙁 🙁 🙁 🙁 🙁
Its true, anyways rihanna isn’t a vocalist so I don’t get why she compares MC to her smh
The fact that she had to compare her with Rihanna when Rihanna isnt known for her vocals like Mariah is.
This post will get messy, especially if trollsie, molly the maid and loose bottom come over
Lol..too many trolls makin cameo.Anyway,Wendy should be defending that tragedy she calls Aaliyah Biopic instead of talking about Mariah every single day
I’m still waiting for an A-list celebrity to appear on his show. Mr. Wendy needs to STFU. Malariah is done. Why is ‘it’ defending Malariah. She’s clearly aging.
Actually Rihanna and even Katy have better vocals than Mariah. Mariah vocals sounds a hot fried mess im sick of her fans making excuses Manriah needs to retire asap before she really embarrasses herself.
ain’t this the same wendy that said that AALIYAH movie was good and can’t for us to see it?
What’s true is Ri-Whine-A VOICE WILL NEVER SOUND AS GREAT AS MARIAH CAREY , even while SICK HER VOICE SERVES!!
Mariah is goin thru alot right now so for people to be insensitive to her growing marital issues is dirty Mariah Can still Sing and i love her voice then and now i agree with Wendy NO ONE CAN DO WHAT THEY DID BACK IN.THE DAY!! I mean pull patti or aretha up on a stage and see if they can still belt the same way they us to the answer would be know!! Mariah Has Sold #More Charted #More and definitely left her mark on the industry whether it was left in the 90’s or in the 00’s Mariah is still the s*** and f** all yall who thinks different #TeamMariah #Lambily
my spelling was f** up but yall can get what im saying if not then it aint meant for u to understand lol
Poor Struggleriah i feel bad for her, Ariana has tooken her place and her music isn’t selling at all.
Honey Ariana is nice but she’s not phenomenally as a power house. Like can you seriously compare her to 90s Mariah and other vocalists of that era? No exactly cause you be lying to yourself, Ariana isn’t nothing like MIMI just go listen to Music Box, Name Debut, Butterfly, and Merry Xmas.
Smh at the mess I’m seeing. Anyway, Mariah needs to do a jazz/soul/blues album cause her voice will serve justice in that genre. If you listen to her track ” The Wind ” off of Emotions album you’ll agree that what she needs to follow. Then collaborate with Maxwell and Kem yes two duets worth it on it.
The awkward moment when u love Mariah and Rihanna…Wendy LIVES from throwing shade and watching stans seethe. I REFUSE to allow her to get to me. Cool as a cucumber.
Ms Diva should have been on time instead of beong 3 hours late so they could had pre record. Don’t try tp bring others in this when she’s the one that sounded like crap (tho this is nothing new). I will get dragged like a red wagon frpm Exlusive Lamb, but I’m going there. MC was never a great LIVE vocal performer. She always prerecord, lipped or never execute the notes LIVE amd on the spot. She always been a studio vocalist. She missed those same high notes last year and the year before that. It just took thos year for her delusional stans amd fans to admit it. Don’t blame others, don’t blame the cold, the divorce, Nock or whatever. Blame it all a diva that can’t accept that she’s aging amd tho she sold a lot of records, this day and time no one is going to bow down and take your diva ways because like the saying goes, there’s someone prettier and will do it better and cheaper.
Her MTV UNPLUGGED is still one of the best selling LIVE albums EVER
Rihanna/Aaliyah fans don’t get to comment on live vocals because, lets face it- neither vocally slay live or in studio….
http://youtu.be/TMmYCKlHuKM
Say what you want, but Aaliyah could hit her notes LIVE, something MC rarely does. And no one calls them one of the best vocalist. The LAMES give Mariah that title and 25 years later she has YET to so or rep that title. Tones of singers can out sing her LIVE, the reason she’s a legend, like Rihanna (the girl you guys try to dis), MC put out hit after hit, year after year with huge pop songs. Minus the emancipation, there’s not one other album that people paise from MC as a body or work, like Rihanna and the rest of these pop stars, she’s know more for her hit chart topping songs. So don’t go there.
Mark. You’re so delusional when it come to MC. The Emancipation is her ONLY album praised in the BLACK community. Mariah DID hit her notes. What the f**** are you saying??? Also, Mariah is R&B NOT Pop. Jesus. DO YOUR RESEARCH ON HER CATALOG BEFORE SPEWING IGNORANT SHITT! Music Box & Daydream are her WORLDWIDE Classic albums. Those albums are considered her classics. Emancipation is ONLY considered her classic in the BLACK community. White folks & other races in general consider Mariah from 1990 – 1996 THE BEST TIME OF HER CAREER LIVE & IN THE STUDIO! Jesus! You’re down right ignorant!
You stan for Rihanna though which just makes your whole essay irrelevant. Your opinion is TOTAL S***!
And it’s funny thay He Man can comment on everything BUT His husband cheating on her and that crap of a movie she produced a month ago.
Well I can’t say Wendy lied.
Neither Mariah or Rihanna can sing to me.
I just watched the clip. It wasn’t necessarily only directed at Rihanna. She said “she sings better than Rihanna AND THESE OTHER CHICKS”. Really convenient that you left that part out Sam… Messy.
So are we admitting that Rihanna pales anyday in comparison to Mariah?
Wendell is so pressed bringing Rih up for what?
was she lying tho? be honest
Wendy is lying. Put your earphone. Mariah sounds like a sick puppy. Time to go and her whistle note is not coming back. Very tragic.
whats wendy’s beef with rihanna? i know they had an exchange a lil while ago but it seems she is very TGJ about rihanna,
cant keep her out her mouth, yet cant seem to say anything positive
She is a better vocal technician than Rihanna…even with shot vocals
But people don’t like Rihanna because of her vocal talent, or the lack thereof, they like her because she’s Rihanna. So that’s to be expected.
…but MooMoo cant dance 🙁
But “Moo Moo” is richer than you and has achieved far more than u
judging from Mariah’s ticket sales…she is dead.
Receipts on those ticket sales? Or u just managed to pull that statement right out of your ass?
lana lover is Rima
Mariah Carey was a LIVE vocalist from 1990 – 1996. After that, she became a studio vocalist. Due to her vocals becoming damaged FROM singing LIVE. Hitting notes that your favs could NEVER hit.
–
The trolls on this page is tew much. Anyways…
Lol, a few weeks ago she sounded better than basically every chick out there.. Sam stays riding Mariah & Rihanna. To the idiot that spoke about Mariah live, some of her live performances are the greatest in history. Sit down with that. Her tour was fine. She barely promoted and didn’t have any major hits.. Mariah shyts on everyone that y’all brag about. She messed flubbed about two or three notes, the rest was pretty decent.. Haters..
Rihanna can sing when she wants to, Mariah can’t do that in this day, she has more bad days than anything nowadays, she remains one of the greatest vocalists of all time, but that’s is just a past thing.
i swear people keep thinking of rihanna as pre-rated r rihanna, today rihanna could eat 95% of the chicks out there both vocally and stage slayage.
DELUSIONAL! Rihanna is NOT a vocalist. She has a Caribbean POP tone. That’s what people enjoy about her GOAT vocals. Period. On a technical stand point. B**** typically sounds winded, pitchy & flat!
arent you the pressed one… nobody claimed she was the greatest vocalist that ever lived, just that when compared to the other girls rihanna is well above most of them. oh and honey if you a singer and have some sort of technique no matter how ineffective you a vocalist, the level may depend on a number of factors but simply put even a bad vocalist is a vocalist
Beyonce lips basic songs & y’all brag.. These other chicks have basic songs and y’all brag lol..
Let’s not bring Beyonce into this. She has shown her vocal capabilities. Worry about Mariah’s failing voice.
That said, Mariah is and will forever sing better than Rihanna. Though Rihanna offers more versatility…
Just a few weeks ago Mariah sounded better than almost every chick out. Rihanna is really just a passable vocalist.. Mariah can put it down when she wants. She just has to rehearse, and put the effort in..
maybe acting and dressing like your age would be nice for now then retire…
🙁
Give it up, Lambs.
Mariah can’t hit that high whistle note anymore. Her voice is GONE! Her record company is refusing to admit because they want to milk this old cow to her last drop. Look at her YouTube Japan concert and gosh, SO embarrassing. I hope they got the money back.
Pretty tragic. Just sit Mariah…sit!
Troll! Why don´t you look at all her other concerts in South Asia and Australia? 🙂
Not even sold-out… 🙁
I always say this b**** Wendolin (or whatever her name is) is repulsive and lives from talking about rumours, lying and talking about other people´s business. So I´m not going to change that.
However, this time she was obviously RIGHT!
Plus I still don´t see how that performance was that bad??? Her mid range was strong and she sounded like in Australia a month ago (which was praised) only that in the freezing cold (and we know how her voice works, what makes it so especial makes it so fragile too).
Her albums..flop
Her singles..flop
Her shows…flop
Her movie…what movie?
Her voice…flop
Her marriage..flop!!!!!
So, there you go..enough reason to stay home and spend your time with your weird looking kids, Mamariah.
Seriously! What´s the perpose of a video where someone takes isolated vocals of a singer that was singing in a way where the vocals weren´t supposed to be isolated???? It´s absurd and I´m glad at least half of the people in the youtube comments is able to see it. Can you imagine any singer who is supposedly being praised nowadays (like Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry,…) having their vocals isolated without all the backsing traks they use and zero help? In a moment when their vocals weren´t supposed to be heard isolated? Yep! Exactly.
Mariah had problems but still sounded pretty good and the performance was fun. It´s like for some reason a part of teh media is waiting for her since her album dropped. Sad.
The nerve for a Rihanna fan to come for Mariah’s vocals LOL. That’s just pathetic and down right delusional.
