Mariah Carey has been mocked for using a teleprompter to phonetically spell out Italian lyrics during her Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony performance. The ceremony was also disturbed by booing for US Vice-President JD Vance, who attended the San Siro opening ceremony to watch Team USA enter. 'Some of the most awful lip syncing by Mariah Carey [facepalm emoji] come on Italy, you have your own singers!!' Another posted, 'Mariah Carey is lip syncing at the f***ing Olympics.' 'I'm very confused why American Mariah Carey is lip syncing at the Opening Ceremony in Milan,' one user wondered.
