I used to be a big fan of Mariah Carey because she had the voice of an angel. However, lately it seems, all she does is lip sync. Friday night at the Jazz and Blue Festival she did it again; or at least tried.   Mariah Carey used to be my musical "Hero." When I was younger I said to myself, "Someday" I will meet her and tell her just how much her music means to me. Her profound lyrics and soulful sound brought joy to my "Emotions."

Over the past few years however, Mariah has been accused of lip syncing at her live performances. It all started when she appeared on American Idol to sing a medley of tunes in 2013. After her appearance, people took to Twitter and were livid over her supposed failed lip sync attempt:

Mariah Carey….worst lip syncer ever! @americanidol ha," tweeted one Netizen named Jason Williams.

On May 21, 2014, Mariah starred on the Today show and supposedly pretended to sing her hit "Always Be My Baby." Viewers and fans were outraged again at what appeared to be a lip sync on live national television. Over Christmas, Carey performed at Rockefeller Center and was lambasted once again, this time for singing way off key.

Has Mariah lost her singing gift? Her fans are perplexed, and others are furious. Has she been attempting to lip sync because she can't perform like she used to? I certainly hope not.  I'm rooting for you to turn this around girl!

On Friday, Mariah performed at the Jazz and Blue festival here's that video!
