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.

VIDEO OF MARIAH’S DRUNKEN ACCEPTANCE SPEECH





This is a damn shame lol, don’t get me wrong I love Mariah and I love to have fun, but really….come on now!!
When is the ‘all black everything’ (saturn worship) period going to end??
LOVE MARIAH
and this is TYPICAL mariah, if you’ve been to the shows or are a fan, you know mariah likes her wine, and is a FESTIVE diva.
If homegirl wants to have a sip…she’s GROWN.
like you trifilin haters ain’t never had a drink before. MARIAH GIRL…DO U
maybe eminem WASN’T lying about her…
they should stop serving liquor during the ceremony then, somebody is bound to go up there a little tipsy
Lee Daniels face in the first pic is priceless
“Bitch if you don’t wake up and get it together…”
*side eye* <—- doing alot of that on post lately…lol!
HA! Sometimes I feel like all black everything too but er um God in Heaven is the only God I praise and serve.
Maybe this is the year we will see that celebs are human too…ppl look at it this way…some of us are cooks…maids…cashiers…some are singers…stylist…you get where I’m going they are human doing their job…their job just happen to be an “entertainer”…I don’t know…I have my favs but I’ve never been the type to be star struck…and residing in DC you come across a few…
This is hilarious, I love it because it’s so her, but it’s not her.
Okay, isn’t this the first time that we have seen Mariah drunk/tipsy in public?? She is only human, therefore is allowed to make mistakes. This doesn’t even COMPARE to the way that Paula Abduls azz ALWAYS seem to be drunk in public…so please folks, give her a break..GEEEZZZZ
i smell another breakdown….. drunken tramp…..where was her so call boi toi……lol
You guys on this site are really negative…..
*On a lighter note*
At least she’s enjoying herself, she seems truly happy for once
i love her and all… but this is SO NOT a good look.
Lol, ooh yall, what’s wrong wit our songbird? Has she slipped off the wagon again or she done slipped off into sumbody’s brewry before the ceremony?
MIMI IS STILL THE QUEEN!
WHEN BEYONCE OR CRACKHEAD WHITNEY GONNA WIN AWARDS FOR ONLY BEING 10 SECONDS IN A MOVIE??!
She was tipsy, no biggy
Alright, from the TITLE post….
I thought she was going to be falling down on the stage or something.
She looks like she just had a little something to drink.
Big Deal.
That was nothing, looks like she was having a good time and also happy she got the award.
I have seen some drunk Friends and People out, this was nothing.
I would not want no one to see pictures of me on New Years, and I didn’t even have that much to drink.
But I could imagine the caption
@Wire and Bitchboobye- Miss Piggy is tipsy and just plain ol crazy!!! At least Whitney has been honest about her drug abuse but Piggy Mimi can’t even admit that how she looked in Precious is how she really looks when she ‘s not all made up. If she can’t be honest with that you know her ass would never admit to any substance abuse. She definitely has some issues…she was acting strange again today on the People’s Choice Awards. Her butt has been crazy for the last several years. No stage presence, lip-synching, wish she was Whitney, insecure, immature, old azz!
@TJ- I feel you!
She seems high actually.
LOL she was funny…It made me like her a lil more
I LOVED IT!!!!!!!1 LET HER ASS BE DRUNK DAMN PPL EXPECT ARTIST TO BE CLEAN N SHIT SHE’S A HUMAN AND A GROWN ASS WOMAN..SHE HAD TOO MUCH WINE CLEARLY LOL SHE PROLLY AINT EVEN THINK SHE WAS GOIN WIN SO SHE GOT DRUNK INSTEAD…WATS THE POINT IN ATTENDING THOSE LONG LAME ASS EVENTS IF U AINT GOIN LIVE A LITTLE…SUM COMMENTS ON HERE NEED TO GO SIT DOWN!
That isn’t Lee daniels.
Google for pics of him if you don’t believe me. But that is NOT him!
too funny, but i guess she had a good time…and is obviously NOT pregnant if she is drinking. lol The speech was clearly a mess, but she is living her life and hopefully isn’t into heavier things like some other commenters suggest.
That is Lee Daniels. The negro just got fatter, that’s all. Notice he called Mariah Carey “Kitten”, as in “sex kitten”, in reference to her Beta programming under MK-ULTRA. “Cotton” is probably his handler name.
OH SO WHEN IT’S MIMI DRUNK PEOPLE SAY ” WE HAVE ALL BEEN DRUNK” OR “SHE WAS JUST HAVING A LITTLE FUN NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT” AND DEFEND HER BUT WHEN IT’S RIHANNA EVERYONE JUMPS DOWN HER THROAT AND TALKS SH!T. BUNCH OF HYPOCRITES!
AND THIS B!TCH HAS BEEN HITTING THE BOTTLE AND THE PILLS FOR A LOOOOOONG TIME. SHE HAS BEEN IN REHAB BEFORE SO YEAH IT IS A BIG DEAL. SHE HAS ISSUES JUST LIKE HER WH0RE SISTER.
This tickles me everytime I see it because it’s Mariah being herself. You know she can do no wrong in my eyes. She is grown and can have a drink and a smoke and pop a purple if that’s what she wants to do. Congrats Girl!
@drmo
Mimi is CLEARLY tipsy. Being tipsy and being a crackhead is 2 different things. Whitney is a crackhead.
Its funny how ppl were saying Whitney made a comeback, yet she only 1 award for her music last year, while Mimi winning awards all over the place for her music and her 10 seconds in a movie this year. MOAIA didn’t even sell well, yet she killing CrackNEY. HAHA!
Oh Look, it’s Lee Daniels, the man that has pimped the “black experience,” by showing stereotypes that sometimes blacks refuse to question, and by showing images of blacks that whites are comfortable with (ie. Monsters Ball, Precious).
This b*tch right here! Talk about tacky and classless *shaking my head*
OH SO WHEN IT’S MIMI DRUNK PEOPLE SAY ” WE HAVE ALL BEEN DRUNK” OR “SHE WAS JUST HAVING A LITTLE FUN NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT” AND DEFEND HER BUT WHEN IT’S RIHANNA EVERYONE JUMPS DOWN HER THROAT AND TALKS SH!T. BUNCH OF HYPOCRITES!
************************************************************************************************
OMFG………that is EXACTLY what i was about to say…and i do not like rihanna!!!
People are soooo biased, just cause it’s Mariah, ‘if you haven’t gotten drunk, you haven’t lived’ Gtfoh……eurgh, i hate stans that make wrong deeds acceptable ONLY when it concerns their idols….and wtf does Whitney have to do with this post. Mariah’s stans are lame as hell…..
Come on guys!
I’m not even a Mariah fan…but I’m loving how she’s enjoying life. LIVE PEOPLE! ENJOY YOURSELVES!
Go Mariah! lol
LOL, if this was someone else, the comments would be much different from the ones i’ve read so far. Congrats to her regardless
@ Bobby
So true! No one will admit it though lol
LOL. However, I did appreciate her honesty like, “Excuse me. I’m a little…yeah…that.” never a dull moment with Mariah.
Mariah is a grown woman! She can do whatever she want period!
What’s sad about this whole thing is how accepting we as people are of this type of behavior i.e. she’s having fun, you haven’t lived if you haven’t been drunk…the list goes on. It’s not the fact that she’s tipsy that’s so sad, what’s sad is the venue she chose to showcase her tipsiness. For all of you who think it’s okay to be tipsy–do you think it’s okay to be tipsy at work? Because essentially Mariah was at work–representing the movie that won her the award. So not a good look. If she feels it’s okay to be tipsy under such circumstances then she really does have a problem. And all of you who think it’s okay do too.
She was not that drunk, in fact the woman was more coherent then most sober people. Must people in general be so critical when it comes to petty things? Seriously that is not healthy I would suggest that people be more reflective on their actions. People blow up the most trivial things but the things that are of importance they don’t even bat an eye at. You all would say she was a stuck up witch if she were all prim and proper. When you constantly find fault in others you should ask yourself what that says about you and your charecter.
judah hit it right on ! soon as i heard the trigger word kitten i knew it was not about her being drunk it’s much deeper as the sheep are not aware.
That’s me after a couple of glasses of Bacardi
Anyways, considering she has been trying to be taken seriously as an actress for a long time, she should have waited to get her drink on post show.
That is the director Lee Daniels?? As horrible of a movie that was now I know why. Look at this dude. Wow. A mess, just like his directing job.
She is straight up lunchin’ in the video…her mind is out on holiday. Why? IDK.
why does lee daniels look like tyler perry’s brother.
i googled his images and why was he all cozied up with lenny kravitz with a perm?
Cosign@51. And Judah please please do us all a favor and choke on a cock. Maybe then you’ll disappear and stop spewing dumb ass shit.
Sorry Mariah but being tipsy/drunk on the job is not diva behavior. Get it together girl.
Mariah has been Honest about her Imperfections & endurance of Abuse therefore her need for a crutch is seeable.
Substance Abuse is prevalant in the Entertainment Industry & sholuld be addressed with intervention from those who care.
She has been a bit off in many recent interviews – Larry King, The View, now this.
She sings from her Heart….In Her Life there has been Heart ache & Pain – She Wants to Know What Love Is, We Have Shown It.
Be Well.
@ Judah—have u seen her Shake It Off video before? In the first :45 a kitten appears walking across the screen and while she’s in the tub, her hairsticks have images similar to a baphomet.
Awww that is sooo embarassing. Damn, you know music has truly gone downhill…first whitney to lauryn hill and now Mariah..smh. sad indeed…she too grown for that…lol..it was funny though because at some point she was tryin to tell on herself…like duh mc..we know mama
I can say that’s not cute at all ,,,come on girl .
I feel that if this was someone else you ppl would be all over them , like Rih or Beyonce …….that’s very interesting .
LOL! MARIAH,
WHAT -THE-HELL???
Mariah needed to go up to that stage real quick, Say her QUICK thank yous & carry her drunk ass back to her seat! & sit to hell DOWN.
That long assed acceptance speech was “NOT CUTE”.
@ # 9
NO we all have NOT had “THESE” moments, & for you to imply that a person HAS NOT “LIVED” unless they have had a “DRUNK MOMENT” like this says alot about you. People can LIVE without having moments like this.
If a person chooses to DRINK especially at an awards event such as this, know your LIMIT. Know your limit regardless, because a FEMALE being drunk as hell is NEVER CUTE (especially if she is tripping all over herself, & cant hold her liquior) .
Be a LADY & RESPECT yourself and your body. Mariah looked plain silly. Im sure she feels silly now that she sees herself.
LOL thats right celebrate have a good time …. love ya girl
I love her as an artists , but Eminem seems like he was right about her drinking issue , in some ways .
@110 , Thank You . i was so embarrassed for her as a female and a new wife . that says a lot , about her relationship with herself , and her respect for her NEW HUSBAND , Shameful Embarrassing .
lol i knew she was alcoholic just like eminem said on the warning lolololololol
Alright Mariah, I ain’t mad at cha
hi
