While other artists were busy partying and enjoying the festivities of the 2012 Grammy Awards, a certain diva was focusing on her craft. Mariah Carey visited a voice and ear specialist in New York City last evening for a routine checkup.
Struggling to avoid the photographers, Carey was “heartbroken” by the recent passing of her friend and onetime collaborator Whitney Houston. The two singers were regularly compared to each other because of their massive vocal ranges and incredible control but maintained a private friendship away from the media spotlight.
Carey has been busy recording her new studio album with the help of Jermaine Dupri, Da Brat, Big Jim Wright, Randy Jackson and several others. Yet, many wonder if she still has the vocal chops to dominate the music scene in the manner that she did during her early career.
If you have any doubts regarding Carey’s vocal talent then watch the clip below where she playfully yet expertly belted ‘We Are Lambily’ in the bathroom for her fans:
Tune in to BET this evening at 9pm ET to watch Carey’s tribute at the BET Honors. Artists who delivered dedications to the diva included Patti LaBelle and Kelly Rowland.
