			Alexandra Burke has criticised Mariah Carey, labelling her "stiff" and "reserved". 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	The X Factor winner claimed that Carey was a disappointment when she came to mentor contestants on the ITV1 competition. Speaking to Metro, the 'Hallelujah' singer said: "I was a bit upset about Mariah, as I expected her to be full of energy and she wasn't. She was very reserved and stiff posed." Burke previously expressed concern that she would sound like a "karaoke" singer when she attempted to sing a Mariah Carey track during the live shows. http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/xfactor/...iah-carey.html  |

			Hardly slagging her off, if you read what she said, she just thought Mariah would be full of energy but it turns out she wasn't.

			Singers aren't meant to dance and go crazy on stage, singers SING. "Singers" like Beyonce, for example, only dance in order to make up for the vocal ability they lack.
