Superstar Mariah Carey made an appearance in the annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on Thursday, and Twitter followers had a field day with the singer as she appeared to lip-sync her performance.

In video posted on YouTube, the 52-year-old singer was decked out wearing an off-the-shoulder hot pink floor-length dress while holding a sparkling umbrella in one hand and a microphone in the other. She wore a tiara as she stood on a giant star.

Carey tried to make it look like she was singing her monster hit song “All I Want For Christmas Is You,” but it appeared from the footage that the music was just playing in the background, with many Twitter users accused her of lip-syncing, the New York Post noted. Other noticed that the “One Sweet Day” hitmaker was flanked on all sides by dozens of energetic dancers as she basically just stood.

WATCH:

“Mariah Carey is getting millions right now to just stand there with her umbrella and honestly I’m not mad. Mad respect,” sports journalist Ian Hest tweeted.

“I love the lack of energy Mariah Carey gives in her performances,” another person wrote. “It’s the one thing we can all count on.”

While another shared, “Mariah Carey getting paid to just stand there at the Thanksgiving Parade and not even pretend to be actually singing to the backing track lmfao queen behavior.”

Carey supporters came to her defense as they noted that no one in the parade was performing live.

“There’s no way that not one single artist performs live at this parade, yet people are mad at Mariah for it. Are you all ok?” one person wrote.

Others joked that the pop singer had been thawed out or had come out of hibernation in time to celebrate the holiday.

“This is not a drill,” one person wrote. “Mariah Carey has been thawed out. Christmas has begun.”

The “Hero” hitmaker recently lost her bid to trademark “Queen of Christmas,” a moniker she’s been referred to as for years, after the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office decided that wasn’t possible, as The Daily Wire previously reported.

A New Mexico mother used her children to allegedly traffic a fatal dose of fentanyl to their father, according to the Department of Justice.

Authorities arrested and charged Magdalena Silva Banuelos, 46, with distribution of a controlled substance resulting in death, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Texas announced on Tuesday. Silva Banuelos’ boyfriend and father of her two sons died in an airport bathroom in May after overdosing on fentanyl.

“I feel for these children. To lose one parent due to the actions of the other is a calamity for a child,” U.S. Attorney Chad Meacham said in a statement. “This defendant allegedly concealed fentanyl – a synthetic opioid 50 times more potent than heroin – in her own minor sons’ luggage. This drug has stolen too many futures and ruined too many lives. The Justice Department remains determined to hold accountable those who spread it.”

Silva Banuelos faces up to life in prison if convicted. The charge carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 20 years.

The defendant placed her two sons, ages 8 and 10, on a flight from Albuquerque to Dallas on May 31 to visit her on-again, off-again boyfriend — the boys’ father. Surveillance video shows the father meeting his sons at the gate, going through their luggage, and entering a nearby airport bathroom at 10:26 p.m., according to authorities. The man died a short time later after overdosing on fentanyl.

At a November 17 detention hearing in New Mexico, prosecutors said the defendant “used her minor children to mule drugs.”

Investigators recovered a makeup container holding more than a gram of fentanyl from inside the bathroom stall the man died in. Investigators also recovered a series of text messages between the defendant and the deceased that, according to authorities, suggest she knew about the fentanyl and trafficked it to him using their children. According to the DOJ, the messages said:

“Hey you need to be careful,” she wrote a few hours before he died.

“Yes ma’am. Very slow and easy,” he replied.

“Just one and then wait you’ll see,” she said. “Just one.”

“Ok cool. Thank you. Will do,” he said.

“No passing out on the kitchen floor,” she responded. “Seriously you could od. No dying on the kitchen floor … It’s going to f*** you up!!!”

“This arrest and detention is yet another example of the devastation that fentanyl continues to reap on families throughout the country. The actions of Ms. Banuelos risked the lives of her minor children by concealing a highly potent drug in their luggage during a flight from Albuquerque to Dallas,” Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) acting Special Agent in Charge W. Guy Baker said. “The DEA will continue to work side-by-side with our state and local partners in investigating drug related poisonings and overdose deaths to hold those accountable for their actions.”
