Mariah honoured at MTV Asia Awards
On Friday February 13th, entertainment reports suggested that Mariah Carey would be coming to Singapore as a special guest for the February 14th taping of the 3rd annual MTV Asia Music Awards. After all, she was in the area for a concert performance in Busan, Korea. However, there was no official announcement and everything was purely speculation - until Carey showed up on the red carpet.
While Vanness Wu admitted to being star-struck when he met Yeoh, British boyband Blue could not believe the news when they were chosen to present the Lifetime Achievement Award to Mariah Carey, who personally received the award - much to the surprise and joy of the 8,000-strong crowd.
Mariah collected the award wearing the pink dress seen in the photo's. She did not perform at the show and appeared only to collect her award and give a small speech thanking everyone at MTV Asia, especially all her fans out there in Asia.
"How you feeling? Thank you so much, thank you so much everybody at MTV Asia. Thank you so much to all the fans out there everywhere in Asia. I love you and I can't thank you enough."
Carey later attended an after party at the Equinox Bar. The songstress didn't stick around for long, however, as she has a performance to prepare for tomorrow in Jakarta, Indonesia. Carey is currently in the middle of her Charmbracelet World Tour, which has upcoming stops in Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Beirut and Dubai. (Mariah Connection and Mariah Daily)
