NEW YORK (AP) - Mariah Carey found a way to make her career sparkle after "Glitter." But can the comeback queen find similar success when she returns to "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest" after last year's debacle?
She is set to perform Sunday a year after her problematic performance went viral. Carey blamed dick clark productions for technical glitches. They said she didn't show up to rehearsals.
Host Ryan Seacrest and co-host Jenny McCarthy both say they're sure she'll be at the scheduled rehearsal this year.
During her performance last year, Carey was visibly upset and at times stopped singing, despite a pre-recorded track playing in the background.
