Mariah Carey and Lionel Richie kick off epic tour together

They have 25 number one singles between them. And fans got to enjoy one after another in San Francisco as Mariah Carey and Lionel Richie kicked off their epic All The Hits tour on Friday night. The dual legends played the first of their 22 planned shows together to a packed crowd at the Oracle Arena in Oakland.

Looking sprightly after shaking off the knee surgery that delayed the start of the tour, 68-year old Lionel rocked through his amazing solo catalog, as well as some favorites from his Commodores years. Fans were on their feet for Penny Lover, Dancing On The Ceiling, All Night Long, Brick House, and of course, Hello.

Mariah meanwhile, who is responsible for 18 of those number ones, smashed it out of the park with her own three-decade spanning hit list. The diva soared through Hero, Touch My Body, Vision Of Love, Always Be My Baby, Heartbreaker, It's Like That, Shake It Off and many more.

Mariah also treated fans to a number of sexy outfits during the show, including an elegant floor-length scarlet gown, and a figure-hugging short leather dress. Mariah's biggest fan - boyfriend Bryan Tanaka, got up close and personal with her in an Instagram selfie she posted after the show. "Had a wonderful first show. Bay Area love you so much," she captioned the romantic shot in front of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Lionel and Mariah are set to cross the United States over the next two months, hitting San Diego, LA, Dallas, New Orleans, Houston, Philadelphia, New York, Boston, and Chicago, dipping into Canada for three shows. The final show takes place on September 5 in Seattle.
