Director/producer Lee Daniels presents actress/singer Mariah Carey with the Breakthrough Actress Performance award onstage at the 2010 Palm Springs International Film Festival gala held at the Palm Springs Convention Center on Tuesday night (January 5) in California.
The singer, who received the award for her role in the critically acclaimed movie, Precious, seemed a little out of it (probably drunk) while giving her speech and Lee Daniels tried his best to go with the flow. View the video below.

mess.
LOL! I love her.
Mimi is losing her mind again. Damn shame. This is more than being drunk. She is on the pills, it’s a known fact in the industry. She better check herself before she ends up dead.
ps. Lee Daniels various looks are hilarious but this is a serious matter. If he is her friend he needs to sit down with her crazy ass.
Where the hell is Nick at? He needs to come get his wife!
real talk- how being a perceived glamour puss donning no make-up in a role lead to a breakthrough actress award? get the fuck outta here!!!!!
———She don’t look drunk by the pics. Too funny
Damn she is so damn drunk lol
Lol… drunk people are so funny. I hope people don’t OD on this video and imply she needs rehab or therapy or something. It’s not that serious. We’ve all had those moments… and if you haven’t, you haven’t lived.
love her.
@9 – Nina
I know that’s right.
LMAO!! Mariah is clearly wasted.
Smh this is NOT a good look…
Wow… I have never seen Mariah like this. I think that this situation humanizes her because she acts that same way that many of my friends act like when they are drunk.
She is just too funny when she is tipsy.
Just because a person hasn’t had “those moments” doesn’t mean they haven’t lived .. lol. – @ NINA
Award? She was in the movie for all of 10 seconds!
i Love Mariah!!!
I love me some mimi lol
Oh ya T-I-P-S-Y! She’s cute though if she can be called that, simply because she’s not obnoxious, mean or belligerent…if your gonna be tipsy perhaps her example is the best way to be.
Her performance was only 10 minutes but it beats the heck outta that travesty of a whole damn hour and some change she did nine years ago!
LOL.. a mess as usual.
HILARIOUS! LOL
OMG!!! YALL ALL NEED TO SHUT THE F*CK UP!!!
She is CLEARLY NOT DRUNK (she walked the stage HERSELF)…she is only TIPSY!!! And it’s the Palm Springs Awards for crying-out-loud, meaning EVERYBODY was probably tipsy/
Also, she completed her speech (unlike Anna Nicole) who was clearly oblivous during her speech. And she had ENOUGH DECENCY to explain that she was only tipsy,. instead of people assuming she was on drugs (like ANOTHER WELL-KNOWN SINGER!!!!!!!).
Yall need to seriously calm down, Mariah is a LEGEND and if she wants to be TIPSY, then that’s OKAY….this is the FIRST time in her 20 year career that she’s been tipsy, so SHE IS NORMAL and there is NOTHING TO BE GOING CRAZY ABOUT!!!!!!!!!!
STUPID PEOPLE………..AND YALL PROBABLY GET MORE DRUNK THAN SHE EVER HAS, SO SHUT THE F*CK UP B*TCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Totally agree with #22.
i,m not even a big fan and i fing NOTHNG wrong withy this!!!
She looked gorgeous…no real appearance of being drunk either, meaning she probably was only tipsy…who cares???
Mariah deserved that award HATERS!
She was the only one in the overhyped shit that did acting.
Monique fat ignorant ass and that other obese girl just showed up and acted like themselves. Mariah gave us method acting. I’m shocked that she didn’t get an Oscar nod.
2TJACK25…my CL buddy…we always be thinkin the same thing. Now Mariah was in the movie for about 15 seconds…
And it’s ok to drink, but the fact the EVERYONE notices that she’s a little intoxicated, thats jus not a good look. But I love MC regardless…
@24 WIRE …that was perhaps the dumbest comment ever…
Ummmm did you see the same movie I saw…or for that fact, have you seen an interview that Gabby has done?
hahahahah!!
Yea yall cut it out geesh!
She had a lil too much to drink. You’d think she got up there and snorted a line of coke on camera!..smh.. I know i would have been having myself a lil dranky drank at the awards myself. She bout was suprised her dam self that she won!..lol!
I love Mariah and she looks absolutely GAWGEOUS here…chica’s fashion is ON POINT for a damn change, but REAL TALK Mariah was tipsy as HAIL, ON STAGE WHILE SHE WAS WORKING..which is hella unprofessional and ALARMING
Point blank period– something is wrong, and her people need to get her in rehab…STAT
Please do NOT let this beautiful human being become a STATISTIC..please JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL
This drunk b*tch always has a glass of wine on standby.
At least she was real about it, You Go Mariah!!
What’s The Big Deal ?? that was it ??
Lmao. Mariah needs to do comedy or something she is such a character. It could have been much worse.
Oh give her a break! Everybody is allowed to be a lil tipsy sometimes. Hell, if Nick Cannon was my husband I’d be drunk too..j/k.
Ugh, she was a little bit pissy… so the fuck what?
That shit aint no real award show..
But I guess we just wouldn’t expect that from Mariah.
People so quick to label this chick crazy and what not.. not even – she’s one of the smartest, most astute women playing this music game – believe that – don’t let her ditzy act fool ya!
___Mariah___is rich $$$$$$$$$$$$$..
TOTALLY UNPROFESSIONAL!!
Nick come and get your drunk azz wife before she has a nervous breakdown again! her album flopped, nobody buying or playing that ish and yall know what happened the last time she failed, she ended up in the looney bin.
people need not be so quick to brush this aside, she was in a professional setting and she got on stage and acted teh fool
Hammered Drunk!!

i cant watch this whole thing and im not a HUGE mariah fan.. but i dont think its really career suicide just funny and embarrassing for her lol but funny..based on the 15 seconds i saw lol
You would never see Whitney Houston doing anything so tacky.
That’s why she’s “The Voice” and Mariah’s just Mimi.
At least she did not deny it. But nevertheless, it was tacky as she is. Why does she remind me of Wendy Williams? They could be sisters! Also, how come her husband Nick Cannon isn’t watching out for her or telling her Mariah slow down on the liquor. He definitely does not care for her and she is his doll.
Poor thing. She is too old to be acting in such a fashion. She is a joke! How long was she up there?
wow, folk can’t wait til after they accept their award to get plastered, dayum, public drunkness on any brawd is pathetic, wanna get drunk off your ass?? stay home..seeing brawds fall out, having to be carried out of establishments, all incoherent and out of control is NOT the business!!!
Someone needs to teach these brawds some etiquette, Mi Mi included
@41- yea whitney wouldn’t be seen tipsy at an awards show but was she not a cokehead for years? thank you
yes mariah’s behaviour wasn’t exactly classy but she’s pretty much well behaved most of the time (apart from the divaness). Heck we all need a break once in a while, but the award show wasn’t the place to be drunk though.
LLS @ Afrobella 82 @ the Nick Cannon husband comment!!!!
MIMI, please please please sit yo ass down it’s bout time you consider retirement
lol.
years ago, christina aguilera told some magazine that Mimi once insulted her when she was drunk.
Getting drunk…fine at some point in our lives we’ve all gotten drunk (Perhap…LOL!). However, she was accepting an award. It would have been much more tasteful for her to have one too many drinks afterwards. There is a time and a place for everything…Sorry Mariah, but that was a fail.
Lol wow…!
What’s done in the dark, always comes to the light
I bet Eminem is somewhere with Elton John laughing his azz off..;)
@ 41
Whitney did an entire reality show strung out on marijuana and cocaine with her husband at the time. Being Bobby Brown?
You don’t remember Whitney showing up to the BET Awards stoned out her mind back in 2001? Or her prime time interview with Diane Sawer? Crack is wack!
And Mariah is the Queen of Music. That’s her title.
Whitney can’t live up to her title anymore so what’s the point? ROTFL
MiMi lol is only human! CUTE! She’s okay
# 3 what kinda pills would you be reffering too?
No wonder Nick and her bodygaurd are always holding her colossal ass up. She can’t back away from the strong drink. Lol. I know her ass popped something too.
@DAMNCLOWN
Lmao, I knew you would pop up. She’s just having an MK-ULTRA breakdown. They just have to say a couple of keywords and get her back right. I’m sure she’s addicted to pain meds or something. Most of them are because it helps them in meditation when they do their yoga chants i.e. Michael Jackson, Elvis, etc.
She was drunk, and that wasnt cool b/c that shows a lack of appreciation as far as I am concerned. Either way love MIMI
It wasn’t that bad to me. But, it would have been better if she would have waited until after the awards speech to have a couple of drinks
I have not seen the movie so I don’t know if she deserves a reward or not, But she do drink alot and she is on Mind Pills, I like Mariah I hope she don’t end up like Britney Murphy and MJ.
YOU GO GIRL. LMFAO
WTF@ 41 LMAO
Dont even bring Whitney and her “crack is wack” campaign into this, that is another story. LMAO
