The residency began on December 15, 2014, and continued through to December 15, 2019, after completing eight legs and fifty-six shows. Her first residency began in 2014 and was entitled All I Want for Christmas Is You: A Night of Joy and Festivity. This included Live at the Pearl which was a four-evening promotional concert residency in 2009. Īmong tours, Carey has had and performed at four concert residencies. To kick off promotion for Caution, Carey embarked on an tour through Asia with the intent to also tour Oceania but was later cancelled due to scheduling conflicts. During the summer of the following year, Carey went on a joint tour with Lionel Richie. In 2016, she went on The Sweet Sweet Fantasy Tour in Europe which was featured heavily in her reality show, Mariah's World. Outside of promoting her albums, Carey has undergone an Australian Tour in 2013 to promote her single, " Triumphant (Get 'Em)". She cancelled the tour but suffered a miscarriage two months later. She failed to tour for her eleventh studio album, E=MC², due to being pregnant at the time. After the release of her ninth studio album Charmbracelet, Carey embarked another tour which targeted "arenas that typically house between 10,000 and 20,000 fans." She eventually toured for The Emancipation of Mimi, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, Me. Her first performance after her 'breakdown' was a performance of " Hero" at America: A Tribute to Heroes. In 2001, Carey did not tour for the soundtrack to her film Glitter due to being hospitalized for "extreme exhaustion". From 1993 to 2000, Carey toured for her albums: Music Box, Daydream, Butterfly and Rainbow. One of her first significant performances was at MTV Unplugged, which received positive reception as Carey silenced critics saying her vocals were studio-made. Despite this she still made appearances and performed at the 33rd Annual Grammy Awards and on Saturday Night Live. Carey did not do a significant amount of public performing in her early years in the music industry, partially due to stage fright.
