Mariah Carey shoots movie at Nashville Honky-Tonk

Singer Mariah Carey has been in Nashville shooting scenes from her latest movie "Tennessee". On Thursday, Carey was at Second Fiddle on Lower Broadway. An extra in the movie said they were at the honky-tonk for 12 hours, but Carey was only there for two.

The extra said they shot the final scene of the film, where Carey's character goes to a writer's night. In the movie the Grammy Award singer takes the stage and blows everybody away. There were about 40 extras at the Second Fiddle on Thursday. News 2's source said Carey seemed friendly, but the extras were told not to talk to her.

Later Thursday night, things almost took a nasty turn when a crew truck backed into a large double lamp post along Broadway, knocking it down. The lamp post hit the Second Fiddle's neon sign and tapestry. The owner of Second Fiddle said the sidewalk was packed when it fell, but everyone scattered out of the way.

Brenda Sanderson said, "We are fortunate there is a little damage toour neon and canopy, but we are just really thankful that no one got hurt." Insurance is covering the damage.
