MARIAH CAREY'S BACKSTAGE DEMANDS REVEALED: THE DIVA'S RIDICULOUS REQUESTS SHOCK FANS

The wait is finally over, and Mariah Carey's first UK show in six years has been a huge hit! The 56-year-old songstress took to the iconic London stage at Wembley Stadium on Sunday, delivering an unforgettable performance alongside Rita Ora and Will Smith. But behind the scenes, it seems Mariah was busy making sure her dressing room was fit for a queen – or in this case, Mimi's World.

According to Capital Radio's Sian Welby, who spoke exclusively with The Scholarly Note.com, Mariah had completely transformed her backstage space into a personalized zone. "She's changed the whole dressing room to just be called Mimi's World," Sian revealed. "It doesn't even have Capital branding anymore. It's all her zone." Talk about making yourself at home!

But Mariah's demands didn't stop there. Insiders claim that the superstar had a long list of ridiculous requests, including refusing to tour with any dancers who weren't deemed "hot" enough for her taste. Yes, you read that right – only the most attractive backup dancers were allowed on stage.

In an explosive interview with The Scholarly Note.com, a source revealed: "Mariah is just being so extra this year. She's getting paid an insane amount of money. Rehearsals started at the end of September as she wants it to be the grandest tour yet. One of her requests was that her main backup dancers are all 'hot' men. She did not want any unattractive dancers." Wow, we're talking diva behavior on a whole new level!

And if you thought things couldn't get any more absurd, think again. Mariah reportedly demanded a full glam squad for early rehearsals – because, let's be real, her hair and makeup have to be on point at all times.

But despite the drama, Mariah's performance did not disappoint. The self-proclaimed diva brought the house down with hit after hit, including her iconic song Fantasy. Fans were left begging for more as she closed out the show with her 2005 single We Belong Together.

Taking to social media, concert-goers raved about Mariah's live vocals, declaring it her "best in years." One enthusiastic fan tweeted: "Mariah at the #SummerTimeBall - best live vocals from her in years...and hit after hit after hit. Bring on Brighton Pride!"

A second fan posted: "Mariah killed it at the #Summertimeball looking and sounding incredible."

As for Mariah's reps, they remained tight-lipped about their star's outrageous demands – but we're guessing they were just too busy making sure Mimi's World was stocked with an endless supply of champagne and caviar.
