Rihanna’s Funny Response When Asked to Sit Down at Mariah Carey’s Concert
Rihanna’s Enthusiastic Reaction at Mariah Carey’s Holiday Show
Rihanna made headlines during Mariah Carey’s holiday concert at Dolby Live at Park MGM in Las Vegas on December 13, drawing attention to her enthusiastic fan experience. A moment captured in a recently shared video reveals that her excitement was shared by those seated behind her.
In the clip, Rihanna, caught up in the moment while waving her arms and blowing kisses, reacted humorously when a fellow attendee urged her to sit down so that those behind could see. As Carey’s “We Belong Together” played, the Barbados native turned around, visibly surprised, and exclaimed, “Oh, s–t!” before continuing to dance. The video’s caption pointed out the irony of someone asking Rihanna to sit during her apparent fangirl moment.
Billboard has reached out to representatives for both artists for comment.
Rihanna’s admiration for Mariah Carey is well-known; this year marked her second consecutive attendance at Carey’s annual Christmas concert. Last December, Rihanna attracted media attention when she had Carey autograph her cleavage during a performance in Brooklyn, New York.
Additional videos from the Las Vegas concert show Rihanna enjoying Carey’s classic holiday hit “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” which is currently enjoying a record 20th week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Rihanna was also seen meeting Carey backstage during the event.
“It’s a tradition,” Rihanna remarked in a backstage clip, to which Carey enthusiastically replied, “It’s a tradition!”
