This week, Mariah Carey sat down with Matt Lauer for a new primetime special called 'Mariah Carey At Home In Concert With Matt Lauer.' The special, which aired last night on NBC, saw MC revealing details about her home life with husband Nick Cannon and their twins, Moroccan and Monroe. Plus, she hosted an intimate concert at her LA house featuring songs from her new album, 'Me. I Am Mariah...The Elusive Chanteuse.'

Performances included a special guest appearance from Fabolous. I liked the idea of a home concert. I just wasn't here for Mariah's lip-synced performances. Does she not care about giving us live vocals anymore? I also felt that the special was bootleg. If this was actually a real concert, you would not expect the artist to play a music video like she did with 'You're Mine' OR play a previous performance like she did with 'You Don't Know What To Do.' People would be demanding a refund but luckily, viewers had the option to switch off. 

Saying that I did enjoy the interview portions despite her usual ramblings. I've posted a stream of the entire special below. Buffering might be a bit slow so you may have to pause it and wait a little so that the stream can flow more smoothly.

1. We Belong Together (new performance)
2. Money (new performance)
3. You Don't Know What To Do (previous performance)
4. Your Mine (music video)
5. Heavenly (new performance)
