Mariah Carey's 'So Mad' Moment: The Unseen Wardrobe Malfunction at Brighton Pride

Mariah Carey, 56, has revealed she was left 'so mad' after suffering a wardrobe malfunction at Brighton Pride last week, she shared on Heart Breakfast on Wednesday

DIVA DILEMMA: MARIAH CAREY SUFFERS WARDROBE MALFUNCTION AT BRIGHTON PRIDE, BUT WHO ELSE IS GETTING LEFT IN THE SHADOWS?

The drama-filled world of celebrity entertainment just got a whole lot juicier! Global superstar Mariah Carey took to the stage at Brighton Pride last week, but what audiences saw was far from a flawless performance. The 56-year-old singer was left "so mad" after suffering a wardrobe malfunction, and it's safe to say she wasn't exactly thrilled about it.

Mariah, who has been making headlines with her upcoming royal gig at Sandringham's Heritage Live music concerts on August 15, revealed the embarrassing incident on Heart Breakfast this Wednesday. The chat show hosts were left stunned as Mariah shared that despite being "panicking" during the malfunction, she managed to save the day by strategically positioning herself in front of the dancers.

The singer took to the stage in four figure-hugging outfits as she headlined the stage for an impressive two hours

However, what was even more shocking was when Jamie Theakston chimed in with a cheeky remark, "You were? That doesn't sound like you." To which Mariah retorted, "Well, I can get mad!" Zoe Hardman added to the banter by jokingly saying, "You're allowed to get mad," but it's clear that Mariah was still fuming about the mishap.

But what really got our attention was when we dug deeper into Mariah's luxurious stay in the UK. The singer is reportedly shelling out a whopping over £250,000 for her hotel stay during her time in the country! According to sources close to the publication (thescholarlynote.com), Mariah has been staying at one of the top-floor suites at the Corinthia hotel on London's Embankment.

The lavish suite boasts an impressive array of amenities, including a large terrace, wine cellar, private spa, and even a living room lit with a real fire. And yes, you read that right – it costs around £20,000 per night to stay in this opulent abode! A source revealed that Mariah had blocked out two weeks in the best suite, as "only the best is good enough for her royal highness."

While it all seemed great on stage from afar, Mariah was left panicking after something went terribly wrong with her outfit

But wait, there's more! It seems like Mariah isn't the only diva who likes to live large. Beyoncé reportedly had a £25k-a-night London penthouse booked at the Corinthia while performing at London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in June. However, when Mariah touched down to play at Capital's Summertime Ball on Sunday, Queen Bey allegedly packed up her bags and made way for MC.

A source spilled that it was like "Beyoncé was bowing down" to the music legend. We can only imagine what went down behind closed doors! The Single Ladies singer must have had a change of heart after realizing she wasn't the queen bee anymore.

Mariah's stay at the Corinthia has sparked quite the buzz, with many speculating that her royal gig is the real reason why she's splurging on such an expensive hotel suite. But one thing's for sure – only the best will do when it comes to this diva!

To hear more about Mariah Carey's Brighton Pride performance and the latest celebrity gossip, tune in to Heart Breakfast weekdays from 6:30am until 10am across the UK and on Global Player.

Her packed setlist included hits like Vision of Love and Heroes as she gave the long-awaited performance that was initially scheduled for 2020, but was cancelled because of Covid
