Oh, the trials and tribulations of high heels. Mariah Carey almost went face-first into Jay Leno's stage during a taping of his show on Monday night, thanks to some iffy footwork by the crooner. As Carey was making her way onto the stage, she tripped up and nearly fell forward, but somehow managed to stay upright. Like a true professional, Carey laughed off the gaffe and went on with the show -- like all Hollywood entertainers must.
Carey was on 'Leno' to discuss not just her record-shattering music career and love life with Nick Cannon, but mostly her new movie 'Precious,' which is getting serious Oscar buzz.

she didn't trip up like article says. There was a step there and stepped off it too soon without relizing it was there.

That would have been cool if she did fall... them boobs would be all over the place.
Mariah is such a good singer, I dont know why she feels she has to display herself in such a sleazy manner.
I'm glad she didnt get hurt.

I agree 100% with you. She has such talent, but she doesn't know how to dress. Where is her management team? Can't they help? I saw her on TV when she was in New York doing an outdoor concert -- it might have been on Good Morning, America -- not sure -- but she had a simple black dress on that was close fitting, not cut so low, and her hair was curly, the way she used to wear it. She looked so cute and much thinner too. That look is much more flattering -- and classy -- on her.

I was going to say something cruel and mean-spirited. But what is the point. She already knows what I was going to say.

I did just what you did some time ago Mariah. Go girl, you are a winner, little stumbles make you stronger and show your real strength and tenacity

What a cow! Not as good as she thinks she is. What an ego. What an airhead.

That overweight porker seems to be a bit topheavy. It's no wonder her legs can't stand the strain. All that junk in her caboose isn't helping either. Somebody was saying they wanted to see her boobs pop out if she fell. Those sagging udders of hers wouldn't be much of a sight to see. The milkman might mistake her for a dairy cow. It's an insult to the cow because cows are one of my favorite animals.

Why do you have to be so nasty? Is it because you have a teenie peenie and feel inadequate? Or because you look like dried up vomit? It must be something like that. Or maybe you are just a garden variety hater. At any rate, your comments are pathetic and disgusting!

Congratulations to Moron-ah Carey on her 20 #1 hits. Too bad half of them are the same song rewritten 10 different times.

If that's a tumble, I'm a monkey's uncle.

No Michael you're right.. it wasn't a tumble.. a trip.. but not a tumble. Apparently the Leno show needs to make a level area not one w/ a lifted area. Performers are busy looking at the audience.. not the floor.
It would be nice if Jay would walk over and extend a hand and escort the lovely ladies out to be seated.
Could be huge law suit.. if not!
As far as her clothing.. she won't change, its her "signature". Just like Dolly Parton.
Unfortunately it makes her appear heavier than she probably is.. by toning it down a little.. it wouldn't look so "off".
Trust me had she fallen those girls would have come out of hiding totally ! lol
Depends on how much she wishes to admired.. not sold down the river!
She is a pretty lady.. I wish her well. Always seems so kind and comes across as well behaved too ! Love her music !
Needs to have a dif person picking out costumes and changes for her every now and then.. variet is the spice of life!
