Singer will hold two presentations in the national territory in the coming days; However, last Sunday, 7, did not please with performance at VMA
Mariah Carey It will be in Brazil later this week. The singer will be the main attraction of the fourth day – Saturday, 13 – from The Town, a festival that takes place at the Interlagos racetrack in Sao Paulo.
Before that, she attended the awards ceremony of the MTV Video Music Awards (VMA), held last Sunday, 7, at UBS Arena in New York, United States. At the time, he held a prestigious position: he was honored with Video Vanguard Award, handed over to artists of history and relevance in popular music.
What should be a night of consecration for Mariah, proved, in fact, a call of criticism. By singing excerpts from a series of songs – “Sugar Sweet”, “Fantasy”, “Honey”, “Heartbreaker”, “Obsessed”, “It’s Like That”, “Type Dangerous” and “We Belong Together” – The artist was detonated by a portion of the audience that accompanied the broadcast of the event.
As observed by Independentthe negative comments pointed out that Carey, in general, was doing “just the minimum necessary” and did not show “energy” in her interpretation. Nevertheless, there was no bad repercussion on vocal performance itself.
And there was, of course, who accepted the fact that she moves little on stage – something always perceived, not just VMA. See some comments below.
I love that mariah carey is at the point in her life that she’s such a legend, that for her vma vangaurd performance she’s just brought the look and voice, and isn’t messing with doing anything but walking 10 steps!
