Mariah Carey Announces South American Tour

mariah-tour-carey-thatgrapejuice
With a recent string of impressive live offerings this past year, Mariah Carey has decided to extend her stay out on the road.
Full story below…


The ‘My All’ vocalist has announced that South America will host the third leg of her ‘Sweet Sweet Fantasy Tour,’ which will see dates held in Brazil, Chile and Mexico. Thus far, the trek has already played to audiences in Australia, Europe, and Africa.

Peep the dates…

Lambily I can’t wait to finally join you in South America for the next leg of the Sweet Sweet Fantasy Tour! For more info and to view all the dates, visit mariahcarey.com/tour. #sweetsweetfantasytour #lambily #ontour

With the 33 date run serving as the Grammy winner’s ninth concert tour to date, one would think Ms Carey would give peers like Madonna a run for their touring money. Quite the contrary.

For while the songwriter will undoubtedly go down as one of the best selling female artists of all time, the receipts for her on-road endeavours prove less than impressive.

Indeed, according to Poll Star, the current trek sees Mimi place at #33 on the mid-year list of global tours with a gross of $20 million. Not tragic, but a far cry from the totals of some of today’s most dominant divas.

[It is worth noting that the figure doesn’t account for Mimi’s successful stint in Las Vegas with her ‘#1 To Infinity’ residency.] 

The star’s so-so touring portfolio is undoubtedly impacted by her prior penchant for region specific treks over globe-spanning spectacles. For example, ‘The Adventures of Mimi’ in 2006 [mounted in support of worldwide hit ‘The Emancipation’] oddly only played to US audiences.
In any case, it’s clear Mariah has caught on to the necessity of cashing in on her legacy and racking in the moolah from the most lucrative avenues in today’s climate. Namely touring and endorsements; two areas she’s amplified her presence in over the last year.
With music sales essentially non-existent, it’s a very smart play.
Checkmate. Literally.

    Why does she look like a cartoon character?

    • RihNavy July 27, 2016

      Aka you in real life sis? You could use a face lift and maybe some tightening around the thigh area

      • #JACKIE July 27, 2016

        Your hole could use some tightening, loose booty f***øt. Stop stalking me.

      • RihNavy July 27, 2016

        Bish my hole is tighter than that sorry excuse you call a b****. Worry less about being turned over on your stomach, blindfolded and getting ran through by more than 20 men in a month and maybe you would be so loose sis cause those walls have NO elasticity. Worry about THAT

      • #JACKIE July 27, 2016

        Yaaawn you’re so REDUNDANT. Go hang yourself, then maybe you’ll be able to come for me after being reincarnated B****.

    • LISA LEVINE July 27, 2016

  2. RihNavy July 27, 2016

    This tea is late. I bet y’all forgot to post about Ciara not having any vocals and Keri practicing opening that THROAT with a Popsicle. Smh

    • BEY>RIH July 27, 2016

      STOP!!!! ???

    • BEY>RIH July 27, 2016

      The rihfrog stans got nerve talking about studio vocals… ?

  3. Stephy July 27, 2016

    Mariah’s NEVER been a touring force. Even back when she could blow live, she hated touring. I’m still pissed she only did 6 shows during the best vocal time of her career, Daydream era. That tour should’ve been at-least 30 shows long. Ah well, get money MC.

    • RihNavy July 27, 2016

      She can’t sing, let alone even have the decency to go into the studio and make some new pre recorded tracks, so why go on that many shows?

      Stop guzzling so much k**** on your days off and drink more water and consume more Omega 3-6-9 oils, they’re better for the longevity of your seemingly deteriorating brain cells. Ugly on the inside and outside ass hœ

      • Stephy July 27, 2016

      • Tori July 27, 2016

        A Rihanna fan…talking about singing…SIT YOUR ASS DOWN AND STAY IN YOUR PLACE B****, WE AINT TALKING ABOUT $0.99 SINGLES, WE’RE TALKING ABOUT VOCAL, AIN’T NOBODY LOOKING AT RIH GOAT THROAT TROUT FISH FACE ASS, STOP TROLLING!

      • OMG Logic!!! July 27, 2016

        The f*cking hypocrisy of a Navy coming for anyone in the vocal department. Your fave spends her free time smoking as much weed as she does d***.

        If you must know, Queen Mariah had plenty of variation in the backtrack department for the Sweet Sweet Fantasy tour.

      • #JACKIE July 27, 2016

        RihTroll isn’t even a GAŸvy. He stans Beyonce.

      • F****** July 27, 2016

        Rihslavey is a flip flopper she once shaded Bey and accused her of coping Rihanna lol you want that tea just go to the formation video post. B**** gives molly a run for her money

  4. UMo July 27, 2016

    Hasbeen. Mariah should realize that the milk is so spoiled now that it’s beginning to curdle. Nobody is trying to see see this dusty carebear on stage, struggling to sing what she cant anymore. Retire you washed up, homewreaking Whitney Houston/Taylor Dayne knockoff.

    • Stephy July 27, 2016

      Mariah’s more successful than the crackhead & the unknown flop, so fall back h**. No one around her generation is relavant today, period. And, she’s the only one besides Celine & Granny still on Forbes from the 90’s solo diva’s. So, hush.

      • UMo July 27, 2016

        LOL@you. Mariah is over and done and has been for a while. This rusty wheel gets dropped by labels, fired from network TV, cant sell an album or score any hits and is now playing Vegas and starring in low access basic cable realty shows. Nobody cares about this hasbeen nutcase except ugly a** idiot b****** like u w/no life. This tragic comedy tour along with that stupid reality show, just like your life.

      • Stephy July 27, 2016

        No, LOL @ you comparing her to a death pathetic washed up (before she committed s******) crackhead addicted ass excuse for a mother, whom didn’t even write nor produce a single song in her catalog & thru away all her talents for a quick fix. Oh, then was too weak & pathetic to fight her “demons” while using GODS name in vain while still getting high sucking on Ray J’s D*** using that boy she “adopted” as a minor DRUG RUNNER & smoking the drugs in the house with her own damn daughter! And, then some unknown flop ugly faced white basic b**** with the corniest music of the corniest time of the 80’s that don’t nobody know outside of 40 year old housewives! That’s what’s funny!

        Carey has her demons just like all of those other diva’s. But, you sitting up here shaming her like she’s the only washed up legend out here. But, everybody struggling, hell half them b****** from that era is either DEAD or literally UNKNOWN. Carey STILL can tour, STILL can sing, STILL can make headlines & STILL bringing in more money than all her pears from that era aside from Madonna & Celine, while banking on a catalog which she OWNS the masters & publishing’s rights too. Not to mention, co-wrote/co-produced EVERYTHING aside from that one song with the dead crackhead & her legendary covers. Let’s not throw stones from a glass house, sweetheart.

        Carey is still ALIVE, BREATHING & MAKING MILLIONS, period. BYE Now, LOL on THAT, B****!

      • OMG Logic!!! July 27, 2016

        Damn b1tch, even I felt 2nd degree burns after that scathing reply.

      • F****** July 27, 2016

        Lmaoooo what a read!!

      • Mr.StLaurent July 28, 2016

        Why shade someone like Whitney Houston for just making your point. ?

  5. Coastal July 27, 2016

    Mariah need to sit her old wack ass down and ask the doctors give her a stronger prescription of Prozac that might compel this new guy she’s with to stand being around her longer than Tommy and Nick could.

  6. Music July 27, 2016

    A icon A living legend

  7. ???????Chile, take this “Itty Bitty Piggy” to the market and make sure you hold her hand while crossing the street!??????? July 27, 2016

    She’ll slay those arenas and stadiums there too. Come to the U.S., mama lamb!

  8. LB July 27, 2016

    Slay a bit with the sweet sweet photoshop tour.

    • RihNavy July 27, 2016

      Get your fave out of the top 1500 on iTunes first

    • Tori July 27, 2016

      Nobody’s looking to take photos of Tinashe lame ass either, that’s why she’s impersonating other artists, STOP.

  9. RihNavy July 27, 2016

    NOT my username being changed to What Now’s! Kiii. Y’all are so pressed and bothered by me. I see what Jackie was going through now.

    • What Now July 27, 2016

      Chill RihNavy. U know that we’re the same person.

  10. TheOne July 27, 2016

    Mariah has made 500 millions plus off her music alone, while some artist pack-out stadiums over and over again, but still don’t have her coins!!!

    Mariah is singing for the love of music at this point. Records and hits mean nothing at this stage to her. I know I wouldn’t be bothered.

  11. #JACKIE July 27, 2016

    Not Stephy coming for THE VOICE and THE STANDARD for female singers. That drunk delusional cow could NEVER compare to G.O.A.T.ney Houston.

    • Stephy July 27, 2016

      Tell her fans to zip it then! The Voice WAS cute 25 years ago, vocally ONLY

      • RihNavy July 27, 2016

        KIII! Drag each other!

      • #JACKIE July 27, 2016

        No one cares about her writing or producing her music. Her voice was and STILL is a national treasure. Her voice and stage presence alone >>>> MOO.

      • Stephy July 27, 2016

        I agree, crackhead’s voice was incredible & THE BEST. But, that doesn’t make her better than Mariah as an overall ARTIST or PERSON! Y’all love bashing MC but acting like Crack was a saint. please…

      • #JACKIE July 27, 2016

        And Mariah is a lunatic who drinks like a fish and dresses like a trailer park hooker. Don’t come for QUEENeys struggles when Moo IS the struggle b****.

      • OMG Logic!!! July 27, 2016

        She dresses in gowns that cost more than monthly income b1tch, and her drinking every once in a while is fine. After 26 years she can still perform unlike Whitney who was a disaster by this point.

  12. Rihboy July 27, 2016

    I think Rih needs to do one. Especially with the rock in rio converts! She pulled major numbers! Plus they are practically begging her to come there. Especially chile! I won’t be surprised if she adds another leg.

    • ???????Chile, take this “Itty Bitty Piggy” to the market and make sure you hold her hand while crossing the street!??????? July 27, 2016

      Yes! Did you see the Australian and South American leg dates being added and then taken away? I was pissed. But would she have enough time to sell enough tickets there this far along in the tour?

  13. Travon Austin July 27, 2016

    Everytime Mariah does well these raggs are pressed, excuse me I mean Rihanna fans. Mariah Carey is the artist to beat when it comes to records for singles. Rihanna is a singles artist and her fans are pressed. They know Mariah gets more press and she does way less. They imagine that Mariah is about to catch fiah at the right time. They are bothered and Mariah will not stop like they want her to. The funny thing is Slutihanna can never sing her songs at 46, like Mariah can. Mariah is coming to extend her lead on Whorianna. Too bad for the n**-sack bags that Rihanna fans enjoy to collect from her dumpsite.

    • Blue Ivy Rod July 27, 2016

      Rihanna has multi platinum singles and albums, just because she isn’t doing Adele or Taylor numbers (NOW) doesn’t make her a ‘singles artist’. People need to use their brains and stop acting like they don’t have common sense, if Rihanna is a singles artist then what would make Ariana or Katy Perry? Hush please

      • JOHNVIDAL July 27, 2016

        All of those are basic and singles artists compared to Mariah Carey hun 🙂

    • Ayyseify July 27, 2016

      But he’s not a Rihanna Stan lol I hope Mariah songs to her cd tho. Cause her lives aren’t it anymore lol 1998 say hello

      • Ayyseify July 27, 2016

        Sings*

  14. OMG Logic!!! July 27, 2016

    Ah s***, isn’t this her first time in Mexico, EVER??? (Well apart from that one song lip sync performance in the Luis Miguel era…)

    Mexicans will finally experience the presence of true greatness. They’ve finally had all 3 legendary living divas grace their stage.

  15. JOHNVIDAL July 27, 2016

    Mariah has neevr even cared about touring. So the fact that she is doing this well around the world and in Vegas for two years now at this point when she is out of her peak and never built an audience around touring is just a proof that true greats never die. She´s doing so well.

    And please to the two saying such horrible things about these two legendary talents (Mariah and Whitney): please stop. There´s absolutely no reason to do that. You have Mylie Cyrus, Rihanna, Taylor Swift or Katy Perry for that.

    • Travon Austin July 27, 2016

      SHADE 101 !!!!! Preach

    • Blue Ivy Rod July 27, 2016

      Rihanna isn’t and shouldn’t be included with those other females because unlike them Rihanna has and will continue to show vocal/musicality. I don’t know how you could stan for vocals and call Madonna talented in the same sentence. You are nothing more than a troll that likes to stir the pot for no reason.

      I do agree that people shouldn’t come for Mariah nor Whitney

      • JOHNVIDAL July 27, 2016

        Blue
        LMAO What vocals has Rihanna been showing? Please!

      • Ayyseify July 27, 2016

        WHAT VOCALS DOES GRANDONNA HAVE?! LMAO RIH WOULD SLAY HER VOCALLY! STOP

      • JOHNVIDAL July 27, 2016

        Madonna? None. But she has other things. And she wasn´t the topic here. Real question is: what does Rihanna have regarding talent???? LMAO Cause everybody else is at least semi good at one thing. I don´t know, even JLo can at least dance hun. Rihanna is a joke.

    • Mr.StLaurent July 28, 2016

      Thanks JOHNVIDAL
      Finally someone who can speak like a adult.
      And you speak the truth ??

      • JOHNVIDAL July 29, 2016

        Aww thank you! These kids are the only ones (almost) leaving comments in this blog taht they really think Rihanna is phenomenal while the true greats are a joke. They truly live in a bubble. Please you need to leave comments more often 🙂

  16. DTG July 27, 2016

    Mariah is a fvcking joke at this point. The older she get the stupider she looks. This tour will flip just like her last handful of albums did and just like her next one will. She has become totally irrelevant and needs to have a seat in her drunk tank.

  17. Greg July 27, 2016

    I can’t believe I just saw someone come for Whitney “The Queen, the voice” Houston. Whitney’s voice, stage presence, and beauty>>>> Mariah the studio singer.

    • Mr.StLaurent July 28, 2016

      Agreed until the Mariah shade. No need for it.

      Eminem DESTROYED Mariah!

      • Truth July 27, 2016

        I still chuckle at that. He reduced her to the size of a gnat. Mariah’s valley girl shade is no match for Em’s hardcore insults. To this day she hadn’t been able to clap back at that.

    • Avi July 27, 2016

      Marshall damn near dared her to say something back after that brutal smackdown and she didn’t.

    • Daimler July 27, 2016

      Wait, is somebody actually trying to say Mariah won that battle? ? Eminem roasted her like a p** and her career has been over ever since.

      • LOL July 27, 2016

        LOL I DON’T EVEN LIKE EMINEM, BUT I WAS HIS BIGGEST FAN AFTER THAT P** ROAST LMAO!!

  19. RihNavy July 27, 2016

    ???

  20. Stephy July 27, 2016

    These n****’s bragging over FEMinem “dragging” females (as usual) & pop stars. His corny trailer park white b**** woman beating ass would NEVER try that with a real n**** like NAS, ICE CUBE, Jay Z or Method Man etc… FEM’s only battles are with weak ass n****’s/wigga’s, POP stars or FEMALES. That’s ain’t nothing. And, Carey actually won that battle. His pill poppin’ ass kept phone calls & n*** pics of Mariah 8+ years after their SMALL lil drive by fling was over. If that’s not OBSESSED, I don’t know what is…
    =====
    And, NO ONE would’ve known about FEMs & Carey’s relations if FEM would’ve never kept going around running his mouth like a lil b****, just getting some p**** for the first time ever. He kept on nagging her, making songs about her & even mocked her at one of his pip poppin white trash concerts. She was minding her damn business. The last straw was on his album OVERDOSED (relapse) in 2008, where he kept on diggin & talking about MC after 7 damn years. The white boy was definitely, OBSESSED.

    • LOL July 27, 2016

      LOL SAVE YOUR SEETHING ESSAYS, EM COOKED THAT P** AND HER CAREER STILL HASN’T RECOVERED LOL.

      • Stephy July 28, 2016

        He ain’t roasting s*** but them thin ass lips with blister chap-stick & h***** shots for them big ass bumps that plants on his flat weak bone structured face every month, BYE

      • Stephy July 28, 2016

        And by the way… Carey’s sales maybe down but she still is killing FEM in the money department. So, no… Her ain’t kill s*** career wise.

  21. HailLegendBeysus July 27, 2016

        Lol scalped where??? Beys got the best selling 2016 release. She’s picking up accolade left and right. She has a MASSIVE SOLD OUT STADIUM TOUR! IN EUROPE AND USA (Frih AND Caca will never). Lmao $54m is LITERALLY Bey’s average income on Forbes. She’ll be moping the floor with fRih and Caca next year! #BOOKMARKME

  22. Theman July 27, 2016

    Mariah is the greatest technical women’s singer ever/artist ever! She’s been sounding amazing recently. When you’ve sold a ton of albums touring isn’t a must. You know she’s doing her thing because they’re hating lol. This didn’t even include her Vegas stint. Sam’s hating a** wrote this article & tried to pass it off as a staffer..

  23. Theman July 27, 2016

    Rihanna & Ciara stans are laughable.

  24. GODRIAH July 27, 2016

    Some people have some balls fo coming at Mariah. Will they have her success, nope. Will they have her talent, nope. Will they have her impact, absolutely not. So y’all haters can shut the f*** up and go crawl under a hole. Mariah is also far more richer than y’all will ever dream of. Over 500 million dollars ALL BY HERSELF! Btw Eminem ended no one. All he does is repeat nasty trash over and over again and talks about how he is the greatest. Now that’s egotistical and selfish. No matter what y’all say, Mariah will FOREVER remain a legend.

    LOOK AT STEPCHILD UP THERE MAKING UP REASON TO TAKE OUT HIS FRUSTRATIONS, INSTEAD OF DEALING WITH HIS OWN DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY AT HOME. THESE LAMES ARE SO INSECURE, YA’LL CONSTANTLY DOING WORD VOMIT ON EVERY OTHER POST WHERE WOMEN ARE WINNING. IT’S NOT OUR FAULT THAT PORKCHOP CAN’T GET A NUMBER ONE THIS DECADE. IF SHE’S SUPPOSEDLY STILL ON TOP LIKE MADONNA, WHY CAN’T SHE EARN A NUMBER ALBUM THIS DECADE. HELL, EVEN JANET &SADE DID. CASPER IS WASHED. SHE WISH SHE HAD CELINE’S GOOD VOICE & DIDN’T LOOK LIKE JENNY FROM THE BLOCK’S CONSERVATIVE MOM. HOW IS IT SHE CAME OUT LAST OUT OF ALL BIG FEMALE ARTIST, BUT WAS THE FIRST TO FLOP? NOT EVEN 10 YEARS IN & BY 2000, SHE STRUGGLED WITH GLITTER. SHE WAS THE FIRST TO NEED A COMEBACK TOO. ALL THE OTHER WOMEN CAME OUT A DECADE BEFORE HER & STILL WAS IN THEIR PRIME. YA’LL SHADING WHITNEY, BUT WHITNEY ACTUALLY EARNED A NUMBER ONE ALBUM LAST & BEEN DEAD FOR YEARS. MATTER OF FACT, LUSHRIAH HAD TO RECORD 250 MORE ALBUMS THAN WHITNEY JUST TO BE AHEAD OF HER BY 15-20 MILLION IN TOTAL RECORD SALES. IF P** IS SO MUCH MORE LEGENDARY THAN EVERYONE, WHY ARE YA;LL HOUNDING EVERY FEMALE POST. RIGHT NOW, ARIANA HAS A STRONGER VOICE & SHE EVEN HAVE MORE STAGE PRESENCE THAN MARIAH DID IN HER PRIME. YA’LL LAMES NEED TO GET OVER IT! RIHANNA’S ABOUT TO HAVE MORE NUMBER SONGS THAN MOO & BEY ABOUT TO HAVE MORE NUMBER ALBUMS TOO! CHOKE ON THAT!
