Mariah Carey Serves Festive Fierce At New York Christmas Concert

Published: Wednesday 9th Dec 2015 by Sam

Well, hello Mimi!

Mariah Carey cut a killer figure as she performed at the first of several Christmas shows at New York’s Beacon Theater.

After cleaning house and enlisting an entirely new team earlier this year, a revitalised Mariah has spent much of 2015 embracing new ventures (see: Vegas and MAC), while building on the strength of established mainstays – Christmas being one of them.

Beyond the NYC concerts, the 45-year-old is gearing up for the December 19th premiere of her Hallmark Holiday movie ‘A Christmas Melody’ (which she both stars in and co-produced). She’s also set to perform as part of a one-hour special that will air immediately following.

As for last night’s showing, jury’s out on whether she matched her glowing look with glowing vocals, but – based on new clips – things are sounding promising.

      What kind of longevity?! The true Queen of Christmas and she looks gorgeous too.

    • maurice December 9, 2015

      And to think that that a Beyhive was just trying to clown me on stanning for Mariah. She is a living legend, who also wrote that song… just like her many diamond selling songs.

      SHE LOOKS AMAZING??? How did she lose all that weight in two-three months?? She looks beautiful; sidenote: why didn’t she switch up songs for this show…she is giving last years show??? SING FLY LIKE A BIRD and send the lambs home happy or faded?

      They paid good money for the same show

    Undisputed Queen. Often imitated, never duplicated. #Music royalty

    Regardless of the up and downs of her voice, ill stand behind her, after giving us 25 years of hits
    Watching her voice return to form makes me feel so proud

    She just has an imprint in my heart for the legendary vocals she had.

    I really wanna know what she was taking that spoilt the ease she used to sing with.
    U can here parts still got it but Mariah is not an effortless Sanger.

    • Darren December 9, 2015

      ‘Had’ Tsk Tsk… i caught that.

    • Lambily❤️ December 9, 2015

      Monica could never with her 1 octave?

      • cocobutta December 9, 2015

        Monica is not a struggling live vocalist and reciepts I can serve. Mariah will always be legend to me but she is on a struggle mill of non smooth vocals.
        She sounds like a nutri bullet blender trying to crush those flat & sharp notes.

      • cocobutta December 10, 2015

        Anyway we do not need this back and forth like we playing “The Boy is mine”

        I love Mariah and got so many songs of hers in my playlist.
        I was just saying we know what it was live and what it is now.
        Still a LEGEND PERIOD!

    MUSIC ROYALTY.

    The undisputed QUEEN OF POP/R&B aka. THE SONGBIRD SUPREME.

    She is one of the last “modern” legends left and I only wish that EMPRESS WHITNEY was here to share that with her; I miss her so much. 🙁

    BUT… We have Mariah!

    QUEEN.

    Wow! I love the positivity in this post, God knows Legendriah deserves no less.

    • King Stephy December 9, 2015

      Honey, the trolls will be here soon…

  7. JOHNVIDAL December 9, 2015

    Fantastic.
    And she´s looking amazing.
    What a career and an artist. One of the last true greats. I mean, the real true greats.

  8. Lambily❤️ December 9, 2015

    The queen of music and Christmas. Her receipts speak for themselves.

  9. Danny Bey December 9, 2015

    Gawd. I love me some Mimi. The last of a dying breed!

  10. IG: @mixedboy December 9, 2015

    Mimi just makes my heart melt.

    The queen of studio magic.

    • Cough Cough December 9, 2015

      The irony as both your favs are studio dynasty

    • OMG Logic!!! December 9, 2015

      Does that make Rihanna a goddess of studio magic? I mean, she somehow makes her voice sound palatable in studio recordings. Then she walks on a stage and you can hear the dead goat in her throat struggling to find eternal rest.

    • Dana Haughton December 9, 2015

      Rihanna couldn’t hit a note if she tried

  12. Chile, leave my weave at the door and don’t steal it like those broke ass barb stans December 9, 2015

    The Queen of Christmas! Who the hell else can have a song chart EVERY F****** SINGLE YEAR after its debut on the Hot 100? She’s such a legend and those h*** that choose to hate her WILL SEETHE!

  13. Flydeez December 9, 2015

    Leave it to Sam to say things like “cut figure” basically downplaying her body figure. And things like “jury’s out”
    You praise everybody else but when it’s a Mariah post that’s when the “shade” and “slick” comments come in.

  14. Theman December 10, 2015

    She is a superb talent. Her voice sounds stunning here. This woman is a phenomenal talent! She also looks beautiful. The tone of her voice is otherworldly!

  15. Indie December 10, 2015

    Sounding and looking amazing like the true Queen she is!!! Come through Mariah as you have been for 25 years will do every christmas till the end of time!!!
