Mariah Carey Promises Lambs She’ll Be Back On Stage For Final Christmas Show in Brooklyn After Flu Battle


Mariah Carey promised fans she's returning to the stage in Brooklyn tonight (Dec. 17) for her final Christmas show after missing three with the flu.

“Lambs, thank you for making my #Christmastime so special,” Carey wrote in a post on Monday (Dec. 16) that featured photos and videos from previous stops on the holiday tour. The accompanying photo dump included a dramatic shot from behind of Carey staring out at an arena of fans holding up their phone flashlights, as well as a video of that moment in which she’s singing her beloved 1993 classic “Hero” and her Lambily help her out with group backing vocals. Then, in a message posted on the morning of her planned performance in Newark, New Jersey at the Prudential Center on Friday she told Lambs she was “still sick” and had to call off that show, as well as the one slated for Sunday (Dec. 15) at UBS Arena in Belmont Park, NY.
