Kelly Clarkson (107,403) by Todd from Sydney, Australia
I just saw on KCs insta, she was doing a quick interview on her walk to set. She mentioned that she's excited about some music stuff she's been working on, to which the interviewer asked "Can we get any teasers?" Kelly replied "Ummm. She might like Christmas." Imagine if KC and MC teamed up. That would be incredible.

Brazil concert (107,400) by Robert-Anthony from United States
I am glad that you enjoyed yourself. You know she had to give a special surprise at the end and sing her signature song there. I often wonder why IWTKWLI resonated so with the citizens of Brazil back in 2009-2010. Carlos, do you know why? It had 27 weeks at number #1. It will probably always be the biggest song of her career in Brazil.

Brazil concert (107,399) by Carlos from Brazil
It was absolutly a surreal experience. I felt like I was leaving my body. I've been a fan for 20 years so to see her in person was a life changing moment. I felt like she was like really real. Her voice is so pretty, her songwriting is awesome and she is one of the prettiest women ever. The Brazilian outfit and the butterfly dress is now iconic. I went to the São Paulo concert and it was as amazing as the Rock in Rio show, even better. Her Portuguese is cute. She came back for the IWKWLI without her shoes haha. 50k people singing with her. It was the happiest day of my life.

Opening act (107,398) by Brandon from USA
Although she has used opening acts before, she mostly does not currently and hasn't for a long time. I just think it would be more interesting if she had an opening act that got the party started. Janet just recently had Nelly and Ludacris open for her on tour. It does draw more people to the shows. I'd love to see her do a non-Christmas US arena tour with another well known artist opening for her. I'm a fan of going to shows with multiple artists. But that's just my thoughts. I have come across a couple social media reviews of her shows that complained that she had no opening act, left the stage frequently during the show, and that her show didn't last long.

Opening act (107,395) by Robert-Anthony from United States
MC really has never had an opening act on her tours, but Trey Lorenz when he opened for MC in support of his album Mr. Mista. Mary J. Bilge likes to headline tours with other R&B male artists to draw a huge head count and for the nostaglia of 90's R&B music.

Opening act (107,394) by Brandon from USA
Mary J. Blige just announced a new tour and Mario and Neyo are opening for her. I wonder why MC doesn't tour with an opening act (other than an dj) especially since her shows are often short in duration in comparison to artists. Would [you] like to see her tour with an opening act or just MC? If so, who would [you] recommend? Ashanti? Joe? Brandy?

Mariah at Rock in Rio (107,393) by Malcolm from Asia
I think the reason for Mariah constantly looking at the monitor is because of the new prerecorded vocals with new adlibs and runs which is different from the usual arrangement of what she's been used to in the past years. I hope she'll rehearse it more if this is the new routine moving forward, because from what I observed this is the most lipped era from her starting last year which I can understand given that she's aging. But in all fairness, the general public doesn't seem to notice it anymore so I guess this is better than the past decade.

Mariah at Rock in Rio (107,392) by Mimi L. from Empower Your Highlighter
The monitor watching has been very visible recently. At first I was thinking how is she not confident about knowing the lyrics to her owns songs that she wrote herself and has been performing for years but you might be right, it may be because she is trying to see where she'll sing and where the background track plays. I think she can iron that out by just rehearsing more. I wonder what's stopping her.

Wow Mariah singing barefoot? That's iconic. So happy to hear she's been getting a lot of love. She looked stunning.

That stage monitor (107,390) by Brandon from USA
She's the only person I see do that. We all know Bey, Celine, Britney, Janet all lip but they aren't stuck to the monitors like she is. They all mix lipping with live singing as well like she is currently doing but I don't see them constantly looking down at the screen. She didn't used to do that prior to the pandemic. Is she having trouble remembering the words or where the lipping track goes in and out? It's giving karaoke to me. I wonder if she watches her performances back for criticism and improvement or allows anyone to critique her.

Mariah at Rock in Rio (107,389) by Shezz from Pk
I have to say her China and Brazil outfits have been much better than the Vegas ones. I wasn't crazy about the Rio Butterfly dress though. She has been looking great.

And yes, the monitor watching is extremely annoying. She won't let anyone take them away - she clearly needs them. Is she using it more for covers and songs she doesn't sing often or everything? Maybe the monitor tells her which lines to sing and which to mime? Remembering which line she has to actually sing has to be tricky.
From the looks of it, she's lip syncing as much as Vegas. I'm sure she remembers the words to Always Be My Baby.

That stage monitor (107,387) by Zachariah from Croatia
I am very curious about that as well. It is so annoying and distracting even for me, who isn't on the stage.

Mariah at Rock in Rio (107,386) by Pedro from Brazil
It was an awesome concert, and they say it was her biggest crowd ever. She looked amazing, and her vocals were on point. My only gripe was that it felt short, but I loved how she switched up the setlist a bit and still sang all our favorite songs. In São Paulo, after the show ended and the lights went out, she came back a few minutes later and sang IWKWLI barefoot, catching everyone off guard - even her crew. Some fans had already left and couldn't get back in. I wonder if she planned it or just changed her mind last minute.

That stage monitor (107,385) by Brandon from USA
Can someone please take that monitor that MC seems to stare at the entire show? No one on her team has told her how distracting it is to see her constantly looking down at it?

Rose City Works (107,384) by Robert-Anthony from United States
MC has linked a distribution deal with Rose City Works to sell the Merry Christmas 30th anniversary merchandise. MC has really out done herself this time with the MC30 anniversary celebration. There are 8 new vinyl, CD, and cassette Merry Christmas items available to order at: www.Mariahcarey.rosecityworks.com.

I am sure the industry's wholesaler leader, Alliance Entertainment, will be allowed to sell some items to our local record shops after they sell out on the Rose City Works website. I am just hoping since I want in my hands one of the 3,000 copies produced Original Master Recording Ultra One-Step vinyl record.

Mariah at Rock in Rio (107,383) by Pedro from Brazil
If you're wondering how to watch Mariah at Rock in Rio this Sunday, you can stream it live for free on Globoplay. Just sign up with your Facebook or Google e-mail to create an account. Most of the stuff on there is paid, but the Rock in Rio stream is totally free. I'm really hoping Mariah switches up her setlist, interacts more with the crowd, and doesn't stay so stiff on stage. Cyndi Lauper and Katy Perry killed it last night. Just a heads up, Mariah's concert starts at 10:45 PM Brazil time.

Christmas shows (107,382) by Robert-Anthony from United States
Are you feeling that this year's Christmas shows are going to be huge? MC is going to give her all during the 20-date tour. Her vocals lately are sounding amazing.
