Fresh off her appearance at the Grammy Awards, where she presented an award to Miley Cyrus, Mariah Carey has made a significant announcement about her next project. The legendary singer-songwriter will be headlining The Celebration of Mimi Live, an exclusive residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM in Las Vegas. The highly-anticipated performances are scheduled to take place from April 12 to April 27.
Although the official statement announcing the residency mentioned that it is in celebration of the anniversary of Carey's chart-topping album 'The Emancipation of Mimi,' it should be noted that this April marks 19 years since its release. Nevertheless, Carey's decision to toast this occasion in advance is well-founded. 'The Emancipation of Mimi,' with its 14 tracks, is widely regarded as a comeback album that propelled Carey back to the top of the charts.
'The Emancipation of Mimi' truly resonated with audiences, thanks in large part to its smash hit single, 'We Belong Together.' The album debuted at number one and went on to sell over 10 million copies worldwide. Its success firmly reestablished Carey as a dominant force in the music industry.
Fans eagerly anticipating The Celebration of Mimi Live can expect to hear beloved tracks from 'The Emancipation of Mimi' alongside other chart-topping hits from Carey's impressive career. The Las Vegas shows, presented by Live Nation, promise to deliver an unforgettable experience.
This residency marks Carey's third venture of this nature, following her successful stints at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace with '#1 to Infinity' and 'The Butterfly Returns' shows. Known not only for her vocal prowess but also for her literary talents, Carey is a New York Times bestselling author, thanks to her memoir 'The Meaning of Mariah Carey.'
In a heartwarming gesture, Mariah Carey and Live Nation Las Vegas have pledged to donate $1 from every ticket purchased to the Fresh Air Fund's Camp Mariah. This organization provides educational and career development opportunities for underprivileged children, something that Carey holds dear to her heart.
For those eager to secure their seats at The Celebration of Mimi Live, tickets will go on sale to the public on February 10 at 10 a.m. PT. This is a chance for fans to witness Mariah Carey's incredible talent and enjoy a live performance by a true icon of the industry.
