Mariah Carey still apologizing to Michael Jackson fans
MARIAH CAREY appeared to apologies again for her shaky performance at MICHAEL JACKSON’s memorial service.
The Hero hitmaker was the first singer to take the stage at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Tuesday as the city came to a standstill to officially mourn the King of Pop’s sudden death.
Carey sang classic Jackson 5 hit I’ll Be There at the service, but struggled to hit the notes and looked tearful throughout her set.
The star subsequently took to her Twitter.com page to apologies for the performance, insisting she battled to hold back her sobs after spotting Jackson’s gold coffin below the stage.
And the singer is still wracked with guilt over her efforts – appearing on America’s Today show on Wednesday to explain her disappointment at the way she sang.
She said, "I feel a little bit like I let everybody down, but I really did try and it was difficult."
However, the Carey insists the embattled set showed just how much Jackson’s passing had effected her.
She added, "But you know what I think? It was a true and honest emotional moment."
