Mariah tapes 4th of July special


Fans and friends gathered at Chelsea Piers (located at 23rd Street & the Hudson River) in New York last night for a one of a kind Mariah experience. After gathering at the location, all the guests boarded a luxurious yacht by 8:30 PM. Around 9:00 PM, Mariah arrived with her crew and with her friend Da Brat. The yacht stopped at various places in New York City in which Mariah performed.
Mariah performed "America The Beautiful" in a long blue sequenced gown in front of the Statue of Liberty. She then did "We Belong Together" in a short red mini dress in front of what used to be the World Trade Center. Then, in front of a backdrop of the bridges, she performed "It's Like That" with a special intro, wearing a white skirt and top with diamond buttons. It was sailor suit inspired. "America The Beautiful" and "It's Like That" were each recorded twice whereas "We Belong Together" was shot 4 times: once with dancers, twice without them and once for the helicopter shots.
All the songs were pre-recorded a couple of nights ago so that Mariah could sing to those versions on the yacht. The director of the event insisted Mariah performed the songs to backing tracks instead of singing them live. The performances will be aired as a part of a 1 hour NBC special on 4th of July at 9:00 PM EST.
