Mariah Carey displayed her slender physique as she attended a Tiffany & Co. event in New York on Thursday, sharing the spotlight with glamorous stars Diane Kruger and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. The singer, aged 56, wore a fitted white off-the-shoulder gown for the luxury brand's celebration of the Blue Book 2026: Hidden Garden launch at Park Avenue, which included a special performance.
Glamorous Fashion Statements
Mariah paired her chic gown with a gold belt to accentuate her small waist and styled her hair in her signature voluminous waves. Diane Kruger looked stunning in a heavily beaded strapless dress featuring a fringed skirt, complemented by heels and an elegant updo hairstyle. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley wowed in a strapless white dress at the evening event, adding to the star-studded atmosphere.
Additional Celebrity Appearances
The event also saw appearances from other notable figures, including Gabrielle Union, who posed for photos with Rosie, and Amanda Seyfried, who stunned in a beaded mini dress. Mariah later changed into a black strapless gown with a cropped leather jacket for her performance. Other attendees included Teyana Taylor in a quirky knitted gown, Valentina Ferrer in a brown dress with a thigh-high slit, Caroline Daur in a black mini dress with a puff ball train, Naomi Watts in a sequinned skirt, and Lauren Santo Domingo in a green patterned slip dress.
Mariah's Recent Grocery Store Adventure
This outing follows a recent TikTok video where Mariah Carey sent fans into a frenzy by sharing footage of herself shopping at a grocery store. The renowned diva, known for being carried on stage and famously misunderstanding electricity costs, was seen pushing a trolley and picking up items like wine and cereal at a Pavilions store.
In the video, Mariah giggled while selecting Captain Crunch and savoury snacks, appearing confused and asking if she really had to pay for her purchases. Fans commented humorously, noting her unfamiliarity with the mundane task, with remarks such as "This is foreign to her and it shows" and references to her dislike of fluorescent lighting.
Mariah's Critique of Overhead Lighting
Mariah previously expressed her disdain for overhead lighting on the Las Culturistas podcast, hosted by Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang. During the "I Don't Think So Honey" segment, she ranted about the "agonising" lighting in places like elevators and gyms, stating, "I can’t with the overhead lighting. Why do they do it to us?" She emphasized her preference for natural light, saying, "The sun is okay if it’s sunset," but criticized artificial lighting as "hideous" and making her "sick."
Past Diva Moments
Mariah's grocery store confusion aligns with her history of diva-like moments, including a 2009 interview where she seemed unaware of paying for electricity. When asked about bills, she responded, "Bill who?" and upon clarification, questioned, "Oh you have to pay for that?" mistakenly believing electricity was free in America. This has contributed to her reputation for being out of touch with everyday tasks, despite her iconic status in the entertainment industry.
