A lip sync fail turned Mariah's 2016 appearance on Dick Clark's New Years Rockin' Eve into an excruciatingly awkward disaster of epic proportions. But, things were looking up for Mariah one year on, performance-wise at least.

After singing her iconic 1990 song "Vision of Love," Mariah was getting ready to sing "Hero." But, before she got started, she had one demand. A demand that was not met.

She needed a cup of hot steaming tea, dammit. But, could she get it? No, she could not.

"I just want to take a sip of tea if they'll let me. They told me there would be tea," said Mariah.

"Ah, it's a disaster. OK, well we'll just have to rough it. I'm gonna be just like everybody else with no hot tea," she continued.

Ain't nothin' wrong with being like everybody else, Mariah. Although to be fair, there is no one quite like Mariah.

She got her way in the end, of course. And, Mariah tweeted out a photo of herself sipping on that much-needed tea once she'd finished her performance.

Good things come to those who wait!
