Home for the holidays with Mariah Carey
Multiple Grammy Award-winning superstar Mariah Carey will headline "A Home For The Holidays With Mariah Carey", a touching new entertainment special to be broadcast on the CBS Television Network. Chart-topping R&B girl group Destiny's Child, successful teen soprano Charlotte Church, young opera sensation Josh Groban, Latin rock and pop star Enrique Iglesias and pop music sweetheart Mandy Moore join Mariah Carey as performers on this third annual special.
Following the success of the past two annual shows, this year's special continues to present inspirational stories about adoption to raise awareness of this social issue. Gold medal figure skater Scott Hamilton, multiple Emmy Award winner Patricia Heaton ("Everybody Loves Raymond") and Academy Award winner Dustin Hoffman ("Rain Man", "Kramer vs. Kramer") present these moving stories.
Four pre-taped story segments will be presented by celebrities who either have had their own adoption experiences or are deeply involved with children's issues. The stories highlight many exceptional American children and families involved in this rewarding process. The inspirational stories of these American families are enhanced by moving performances by some of today's most popular performers. Mariah Carey opens the show with a medley of "Never Too Far" and "Hero" and performs "Reflections" and "I'll Be There". Charlotte Church and Josh Groban perform a duet of "The Prayer". Destiny's Child, returning from last year's special, perform "Emotions" and, from their Christmas album, "D.C. Christmas Medley". Enrique Iglesias sings "Hero". Mandy Moore performs the song "Cry". Many thanks to Mariah Buzz.
