Mariah Carey Announces Australian, NZ Tour
Mariah Carey is coming to Australia and New Zealand in November. The music icon has announced she will be bringing her “The Elusive Chanteuse” world tour to the Oceania nations.
Carey already has Asian shows lined up, and she’s just adding a few dates in Australia and New Zealand to add to her tour.
She will have six dates for Australia, and one for NZ. Tickets will be available from September 26.
Here are the dates for her “The Elusive Chanteuse” tour:
November 2 – Sandalford Estate Swan Valley Winery (Perth)
November 5 – Adelaide Entertainment Centre (Adelaide)
November 7 – Rod Laver Arena (Melbourne)
November 8 – Rochford Wines Yarra Valley (Victoria)
November 10 – Qantas Credit Union Arena (Sydney)
November 14 – Vector Arena (Auckland, NZ)
November 17 – Sirromet Wines (Queensland)
As if to entice fans to attend her shows, the 44-year-old diva has hinted on debuting new songs at her concerts.
“I want to experience the spontaneity and emotion that I put into this album on stage with my fans,” the mother of two said. “I can’t stop writing songs so don’t be surprised if you hear a brand new song that I just wrote the night before the show in your city!”
Her last national tour in Australia is in 1998, although she was in the country in 2013 for a few concerts.
Meanwhile, Carey’s marriage with Nick Cannon is reportedly in trouble. According to E! News, the Grammy winner has “started divorce process.” Cannon wanted to save their marriage by going to a counsellor, but the songstress was having none of it.
“She won’t be caught off-guard again,” a source told the gossip site, referring to Cannon’s alleged comments about their marriage. “She was devastated when he spoke out about their issues. She’s started the proceedings to make sure the ball is in her court from now on.”
Carey and Cannon wed in 2008. They have two kids together, fraternal twins Monroe and Moroccan, who were born in April 2011.
