WATCH: NBA mascot spoofs Mariah Carey’s ‘failed’ performance

/ 02:28 PM January 06, 2017

Following her lip-sync snafu last New Year’s Eve, Mariah Carey has been trolled again, this time by the San Antonio Spurs.

During Wednesday’s match against the Toronto Raptors, the Spurs’ bubbly mascot, Coyote, trolled the chanteuse in a half-time show by mimicking her lip-sync performance. Clad in a sparkling suit similar to that worn by Carey, the Coyote sang her 1991 hit “Emotions” but failed to finish due to a technical problem. Out of frustration, the mascot stormed off the court.

Spurs was not the first NBA team to throw shade at the singer. The Indiana Pacers organized a “lip-sync cam” by filming fans chanting her song.
