Mariah Carey is a double delight
There may be only one other diva who can give Beyonce's rendition of the National Anthem a run for its money. And for this upcoming Fourth of July, Mariah Carey might be preparing to show that she's up for the job. The 43-year-old songstress pre-taped a segment in New York on Thursday for an upcoming NBC special, Macy's Fourth of July Fireworks Spectacular. Though the show - hosted by husband Nick Cannon - is set to air at 8pm EST, the pop star got to work a bit early in Liberty State Park.
Fitting for the American holiday, Mariah donned a vibrant red gown for the taping. Its train added an extra layer of glamour that the singer threw in the air with a flourish as she sang. Side cut-outs accentuated Mariah's enviable curves, while a diamond cuff boosted her sparkle factor.
As she exercised her five-octave vocal range, her long locks blew in the wind - only making her performance that much more Mariah. The songstress also changed into a sexy black dress and and a country girl outfit, sitting on a bale of hay at one point.
The esteemed singer recently pushed back the release of her upcoming album. She shared on Monday that she's holding off on releasing The Art Of Letting Go for artistic reasons. "While making this album, I got so immersed in the creative process that I just don't feel I would be doing it justice to release it on 7/23," she wrote on her Twitter page.
She went on to say: "I'd rather not exclude meaningful songs. I want to give you this album as it's meant to be heard. When I'm ready, you'll be the first to know!" The whole album will feature her Billboard hit #Beautiful, featuring Miguel. (Mail Online)
