Mariah Carey stumbled onto stage at the Palm Springs Film Festival Gala Dinner to accept the award for Breakthrough Actress of the Year for her role in “Precious.”

After a long, awkward pause onstage, Mariah apologized, saying “Please forgive me, because I’m a little bit, ummm…” An audience member finished her sentence, screaming out “Drunk!” to which Carey responded “Yeah,” followed by a laugh.

I’m sure Eminem is eating this up.
