Mariah's Fans Fear For Her Fashion Faux Pas

Mariah Carey has been getting some major flack for her outfit choices on tour, even on her own website's message boards. Fans reacted to the tour buzz, as well as the not-so-flattering pictures that have been floating around with comments like:




"The picture promises a night of glamorous, high fashion, truly sexy haute couture, but the reality, at least when it comes to that black get-up, is a tacky, too small, trashy embarrassment of a number. I don't know how Mariah, or her staff, think that this stunning woman would look good in this itty bitty cheap frock, but they need to ditch it before the concert moves on."

Another fan states "Mariah failed to create a buzz about her live performance during her album because she wore tacky costumes and stood in one place and sang, and a lot of times had some off key moments, not bashing, but telling the truth...Her outfits are too revealing to appeal to a massive adult audience, and the fact that she just stands in one place and sings, and waves her hands is not entertaining enough for younger audiences."

These comments are from Mariah's free message boards, the paid members also lash out on the "Friends of Mariah" message boards. Although Mariah has slimmed down quite a bit for the tour, it looks like her fans think she might need to consider a new stylist.

137. I think that Mariah Carey does overdo it on a few outfits, but she looks good on some others. She might need to find outfits to match the moods of some songs she performs live. I do remember when her former manager Tommy Mottola had her wearing long black dresses on awards shows in 1990-1991, very one-dimensional and conservative, and I didn't like that. I think she's trying to one up on people like Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie and Britney Spears, who show too much flesh at once in public. Sometimes it's not what the stylists put on her, it's what the record companies execs like to push onto the public. Those labels like to outdo each other on their artists' sexy, radical looks and images at record release parties competing on the same night. It's high fashion she's bringing, but it's a little too much sometimes. She should get a new stylist or another set of wardrobe to wear on her live shows. I don't think we can change Mariah--she's going to have to do it on her own.

138. I saw her in Vegas(the tickets were free)and she does just stand there and sing.The funny thing was when she walked she kept holding that cape thing over her butt,so she was very aware about her look.The best part was her sprayed on abs(they were way to high)and her Richard Simmons greased up legs.Not only that she was almost an hour late.She is very full of herself,her tour book is a homeage to her,and her ass.I took my friend as a birthday present but i have seen way better shows and would not have gone otherwise.The only thing I can say on her behalf is at least she doesn't lipsink.
