About this listen
Mariah Carey has been front and center in headlines over the past several days thanks to a whirlwind of high-profile appearances, intriguing interviews, and some buzzworthy social media moments. She electrified fans at Wembley Stadium during Capital's Summertime Ball on June 15, 2025, delivering a standout live performance of her classic hit Emotions. This appearance, part of a star-studded event featuring the likes of Will Smith and Tate McRae, reaffirmed her legendary vocal prowess and stage presence, delighting fans and media alike as attendees and viewers shared clips and rave reactions across platforms like Instagram and Twitter.
Just a few days prior, Carey was honored in a major way at the 2025 BET Awards in Los Angeles. On June 9, she accepted the BET Ultimate Icon Award, joining the ranks of Jamie Foxx, Snoop Dogg, and Kirk Franklin. Carey delivered a show-stopping performance of her latest single Type Dangerous, making headlines not only for her voice but for interpolating Rakim’s Eric B. Is President live onstage. In her acceptance speech, she encouraged fans to embrace their inner diva, and her remarks and outfit both became talking points in entertainment columns. The BET tribute is significant, marking another milestone in Carey’s career as she continues to be recognized for her immense impact on music and culture, with media outlets like People calling her the best-selling female singer of all time.
The past week also saw Mariah once again making waves with her unique take on aging and time. In an interview with People published June 16, Carey explained her well-known refusal to acknowledge birthdays or even the passage of time, insisting she is “eternally 12.” Her comments, echoed on her Instagram reel and picked up by NBC and Parade, playfully fed the ongoing public fascination with her views—stories that consistently go viral and underscore her brand of glamor and agelessness.
Business-wise, Carey is building anticipation for her sixteenth studio album, teasing fans on social media that the record is due later in 2025. She continues her lucrative Las Vegas residency, The Celebration of Mimi Live at Park MGM, with eight new shows added for early next year, extending a residency that has become both a commercial and critical highlight of her post-Emancipation of Mimi era.
On social media, Carey has remained highly visible, recently posting a viral reel declaring, “I don’t acknowledge time,” and fanning conversation and memes about her persona. At this time, there have been no new legal stories or AI rumors—those trended previously—but her focus lately is on the new album, ongoing shows, and her well-established role as an industry icon. The sheer volume of high-profile honors, fresh music, and headline-grabbing performances in recent days suggest Mariah Carey is not only reflecting on her storied past but making new history as the summer of 2025 unfolds.
