Mariah Carey BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Mariah Carey has been everywhere this week, making waves with both new music and that signature unbothered diva flair. According to RetroPop Magazine and People, she’s just confirmed her much-anticipated sixteenth studio album is officially finished. In a splashy live interview at the new Apple Music Studios with Zane Lowe and Ebro Darden, Mariah teased that the album will feature eleven or twelve tracks, including her trademark ballads and some personal revelations about the past decade of her life—much of it inspired by her journey as a mother to twins Monroe and Moroccan. She dropped a lyric hint, ‘It’s a special occasion, Mimi’s emancipation,’ and emphasized that while she doesn’t want to give away the whole story just yet, fans can expect a summery second single to arrive very soon.

Her lead single Type Dangerous, released earlier this summer, shot straight to number one on the US iTunes chart and marked her triumphant return to the Billboard Hot 100, her first time in over a decade. That track also anchored a show-stopping performance at the 2025 BET Awards, where Mariah was honored with the BET Ultimate Icon Award. On stage, she shared reflections on her storied career and her message for self-belief and owning her fabulousness, drawing headlines for her candid speech.

Social media has been abuzz with Mariah-related chatter, especially after paparazzi caught her in Los Angeles last week. When asked for her take on Jeff Bezos’ $50 million Venice wedding, Entertainment Tonight and The Independent both reported her now-viral three-word response: ‘I wasn’t there.’ When pressed further about whether she was invited, Mariah coolly shut down the speculation with ‘Oh, don’t turn this into that.’ This nonchalant exchange immediately lit up TikTok and X, with fans drawing comparisons to her classic ‘I don’t know her’ line from the early 2000s.

Business-wise, while there’s no major new venture announced this week, Color Asia Live just revealed Mariah’s upcoming ‘The Celebration of Mimi’ concert scheduled for October 4, 2025, at the Sentul International Convention Center in Jakarta. Promoters are calling it an intimate, career-spanning show that promises luxurious staging and all her biggest hits—a hot ticket for the region.

On social feeds, her new album announcement has been trending with fans posting hearts and excitement over what some dub a ‘hearts-only sale,’ according to verified Instagram posts. Overall, these past days have been pure Mariah: headline-grabbing, meme-creating, and keeping the world waiting breathlessly for more.
