Mariah Carey is having a hard time rebounding after her epic lip sync fail during a New Years Eve performance in Times Square.
The diva blamed her bad performance on "a production team with technical issues who chose to capitalize on circumstances beyond our control," she said on Instagram. "They foiled me, thus it turned into an opportunity to humiliate me."

Ticketmaster is trying to help her out by offering tickets for her upcoming “All the Hits” tour with Lionel Richie as part of a “buy one, get one free” promotion. “This Valentine’s Day, grab a ticket for you and your special someone … all for the price of one,” reads one of the promos.

The NYE performance isn't the only thing hurting Carey's career. Her latest single "I Don't" was a major flop. It's currently No. 55 on iTunes.

Carey hasn't toured in North America in six years, and will now open for Richie in 35 cities. “Mariah is working enthusiastically with Live Nation and Lionel’s team to put together an outstanding tour,” Carey's rep told Page Six. “Ticket sales are beyond great — fans are in for a real treat.”
