Mariah Carey BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Mariah Carey has ignited the summer of 2025 with a series of headlines and public moments that perfectly blend her legendary musical prowess and her unmistakable diva energy. The biggest news this week is that Carey just confirmed her highly anticipated sixteenth studio album is finished, telling Apple Music’s Zane Lowe and Ebro Darden that the new project captures who she is today—including reflections on the last fourteen years raising her twins Monroe and Moroccan. The album will feature eleven or twelve tracks and, as she coyly teased, more of those beloved Mariah ballads. She’s holding back the specifics, but did suggest fans will relate to the lyric "It’s a special occasion... Mimi’s emancipation," a nod to her emancipation era. Before the album arrives, fans are set to get a summery second single and, coming off her latest single "Type Dangerous"—which debuted on the Billboard Hot 100—she appears fully reenergized since her last album in 2018. Her album news follows last month’s show-stopping appearance at the 2025 BET Awards, where she was honored with the BET Ultimate Icon Award and treated the audience to her new song in a performance that earned rave reviews. During her acceptance, Carey delivered one of her signature empowering speeches, emphasizing her newfound freedom and urging everyone to “be iconic while you’re doing it,” underscoring her ongoing influence beyond just music.
Meanwhile, Mariah is keeping her live performance credentials sharp, recently announced among the headliners for the 2025 iHeartRadio Music Festival, where she’ll share the stage with Maroon 5 and Tate McRae among others. Internationally, she’s building excitement with upcoming dates like "The Celebration of Mimi" concert set for Bangkok in October, highlighted in her global press run and social media.
On the media circuit, Carey’s wit remains as sharp as ever. When paparazzi asked about her absence from Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s high-profile Venice wedding, Mariah’s three-word response—“I wasn’t there”—went instantly viral. Social media exploded with memes and callbacks to her timeless “I don’t know her” remark about Jennifer Lopez, cementing Carey as not just the queen of pop but also the undisputed queen of shade. Fans and commentators point to these moments as evidence of her staying power and her unique brand of celebrity, in which she commands attention but refuses to play by anyone else’s rules.
Adding a glimpse into her lavish lifestyle, recent features have detailed her $75,000-a-month Connecticut rental home, which is up for sale at $12.4 million, complete with luxury trappings befitting her superstar status. As for speculation, some fans buzz about surprise collaborations on the new record and potential festival guest appearances, but Carey is purposely keeping details under wraps for now.
In short, whether it’s reaffirming her legend with a new album, serving memes to the masses, or headlining international festivals, Mariah Carey has made this July a reminder of why her reign endures—iconic, unbothered, and ready for her next era.
