US EditionMariah Carey Fans Outraged by Muni Long's 'Disrespectful' Parody Video
Muni Long uses a Mariah Carey impersonator in 'Delulu' promo after a cold March performance reaction, sparking fan backlash and prompting clarification videos.
- Muni Long released two comedy skits featuring a Mariah Carey impersonator to promote `Delulu` on Monday, and Long clarified on her Instagram Story that she meant no offense.
- Earlier this year, Long honored Carey at the 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards, and Mariah Carey’s GQ interview remark `I just don't like people doing my songs` inspired Long’s `Delulu` skit.
- The skits open with the impersonator performing and critiquing Long, including stamping `Delulu` on a mock headshot, giving `notes` about overhead lighting, and pushing Long off a ledge.
- Fans responded by flooding Long’s Instagram comments with criticism, many calling the clips disrespectful and writing lines like `Career too young for this level of disrespect`.
- Long’s prior collaborations with Carey give the episode added context, including their 2024 remix of `Made for Me` and mostly positive rapport, while the promo campaign has run since last month with social-media stars parodying it.
