Mariah Carey suffered a festive fail on New Year's Eve when she attempted to ring in 2021 with a rendition of
Auld Lang Syne and forgot the words. The 50-year-old superstar took to her social media accounts to share a clip of her belting out the famed tune a cappella.
But it seems Mariah was slightly out of practice as she suffered a memory blank mid-performance. "Should auld acquaintance be forgot /And never brought to mind? /Should auld acquaintance be forgot," Mariah sang before saying, "I don’t know how it goes. And days of auld lang syne?" She questioned before admitting: "Never could pronounce it properly."
