Mariah Carey was so impressed with Amber Holcomb’s performance on Wednesday’s “American Idol” that she may have let an F-bomb slip out during her critique.
The contestant had just received a standing ovation from all four judges for Stevie Wonder‘s “Lately” when Carey gushed about the “tour de force” performance.
“It was [bleeping bleep],” said the music icon, prompting speculation that she might have actually said a curse word.
Other viewers, however, thought the “Idol” censors might’ve been just a little trigger happy.
In any case, Carey’s colleagues were enthusiastic as well, with Randy Jackson calling Holcomb’s rendition “the best vocal of the night.”
Noted Keith Urban, “You picked the right song. You sang it beautifully. You felt it beautifully.”
Nicki Minaj told Holcomb, “That was just out of this world,” and encouraged her to forget she was in the Bottom Three last week.
“I want you to know you are loved by millions of people,” said the rapper.
