Mariah Carey ambushed on stage by Crazed Fan In Monaco. [Watch]

mariah carey attacked by crazed fan.


The title pretty much says it all! Mariah Carey was performing in Monaco and had just finished singing Hero, the closing song on her setlist, when out of nowhere an "eager" fan jumps onto the stage and charges at the singer!

Clearly annoyed the singer is heard to say sarcastically, "My security is impeccable", as the fan gets an uncomfortable hugs from the star. Eventually the fan was removed from Mariah while she was quickly ushered off of the stage, no doubt getting ready to fire some people.

What's incredible- other than this being a 100% live vocal- is that the security were pretty sloppy in responding to the intruder who ran on to the stage at 4.28. They're only lucky the fan was carrying a camera and not something more sinister.

All I can say is Mariah handled it like a true Diva: calm and with sarcastic wit.

  1. LOL I loved that last shot. Her body language as she walks away, like she just dropped a poopy diaper in a trashcan.

  3. HAHAHa. If that were me, I'd have grabbed the mic, pushed Mariah out the way, and started doing my best Jennifer Holiday impression!! My moneys on Stuey! Haven't seen him in a while!!

  4. She was not happy! But to be fair, that is pretty much every performers worse nightmare!

  5. Wow, DD, you'd take the mic from a diva like Mariah??? You'd probably damage yourself trying to do a Jennifer Holliday impression!

  6. HAHAHAHA, so true! I watched it again because of your comment that was just hilarious. I think she handled it well though.

  7. To be honest I don't really know what goes on through these peoples heads when they do crazy things like this because I can be starstruck (Waiting for the day Cher comes through my neighborhood on a Motorcycle with a leather gang) but I would never get up on a stage during a show just to hug them!

  8. I thought she handled it very well. Stayed pretty cool and looked like she was paying mind to how the security guys treated the fan. Had the impression she was making sure they would not treat him roughly. I liked that.

  9. Ha ha ha! Zing!

  10. LOL! I also love the way the guy was like a foot smaller than her, he's just staring up at her bless him!

  11. When is Mariah gonna do some live large venue gigs for the people? I'm glad that she's doing all these small paid private gigs, but let's face it, you can't get to be there unless you're rich. I'd love to see her do something where the public can go see her again - like when she did Live 8 a few years ago for example.

  12. Oh, my Gosh! My Mimi could be dead now!!!

    Mariah always treats the lambs very well - I think she's the only pop singer who gets close to the fans. The problem here is the surprise.

  13. Lol we all know I woulda bundled her in a bag and made her sing to me on command at home....

    ReplyDelete
  14. Lol I am touched you all think I have this sinister side (Clearly know me too well)

    ReplyDelete
  15. Lol that was the most random thing I have read all day.....

    ReplyDelete
  16. I agree but then I think the smaller venues bring out the best in her, she seems more relaxed and vocally on point. I dunno if her nerves are so much of an issue these days but yeh its almost a slap in the face to her fans that she doesn't do bigger gigs, I guess we will have to just enjoy the youtubing lol

  17. Oh and can I point out how healthy her voice sounds just now....

    ReplyDelete
  18. I agree, she coulda been a total biatch about it but acted with great humility, its to be admired!

  19. Does anyone remember a similar thing happened to Britney a couple of years ago? I just remember her shaking and freaking out! Mariah is pretty cool about it actually.

  20. Only pop singer who would get close to the fans? Not true. Both Lady Gaga and Beyonce have gone crowd surfing, which is far more dangerous than hugging a fan who ran up on stage (not to take anything away from Mariah though).

  21. I don't remember that, but a while back Keri Hilson was attacked by a fan onstage. And it seemed like an actual attack, not just a fan running up to hug her.

  22. Just watched a similar video with Miley Cyrus and she started screaming "Oh my God" and ran off stage with security. Wow, Mariah really did handle this well...

    ReplyDelete
  23. Wow, that vid was actually quite scary...

    ReplyDelete
  24. The only one ? Not at all.

  25. Looking at it I think he was trying to kiss her lol.
    Because you can see him hug her and then somewhat lean in towards her face , but when security (doing there job a bit late, but doing it none the less) pulled him he had just wrapped his arms around her so he tugged her with him.
    She handled it well though.

  26. These pop stars are not made of very stern stuff are they? A dude ran unto the stage naked during a Robert Plant-Alison Krauss concert and they just were amused. Of course, seems the security WAS better as the guy didn't get at them.

  27. I'm not sure which was the scariest part, the fan or the security.

  28. Every time Mariah came to Brazil she ALWAYS left the places by the front door (always smiling, always taking pictures and talking to the fans). Madonna, Beyonce, Britney and many others left by the back door. I only have good impressions on Mariah.

  29. Did Mariah had surgery on her cords? Her voice sounds really good, even speaking.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Whatever. I'm not saying Mariah doesn't get up close with her fans. I'm just saying it's not fair to say that others don't. And maybe those other singers you mentioned had other things to do. You don't know. I'm not sure about Madonna and Britney, but Beyonce gets up close and personal with her fans for sure. How's this for getting close with fans?

  31. Her voices conditions depend on two major things. One if she gets enough rest. And two if she lays off the alcohol. Both have a major effect on her vocal chords making them very raspy.

  32. Beyoce went on a very famous touristic monument here in Brasil, but when she was discovered she ran like a cat. Mariah left a very famous restaurant by the front door.
    Everybody knows that jumping up over the crowd is a staged thing, it is rehearsed before the show. That's what a heard about it.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I know, but her voice sounds really, really, really GOOD.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Oh wow, Beyonce left after one event in Brazil so she doesn't give a shit about her fans? Again she might have had something else to do. But she gets very up close in personal in many concerts. She even gives a fan her towel at each one of her concerts (which is kinda weird, haha). My point is not really about Beyonce but about how there plenty pop singers (and others of course) who really engage with their fans other than Mariah.


    And for the Lady Gaga crowd surfing video I posted, that was not staged or rehearsed. It wasn't even her concert, it was Semi Precious Weapons concert , and she dropped by unexpectedly. Even if it was rehearsed, it's still braver than hugging a fan who ran onstage (not saying Mariah wasn't brave because she sure as hell was). At one point someone even tried to steal Gaga's necklace and she still jumped back into the crowd (which I think is disgusting, by the way).

  35. yeah lady gaga is way closer to her fans - just go look up videos

    and beyonce has a good relationship with her fans too
    and britney spears let fans on stage during her last tour

    ReplyDelete
  36. And it usually does when she gets enough sleep just like any other singer.

  37. I thought she was funny and gracious. She said "Well hello! My security is impeccable!" She didn't seem mad at all, she even walked around the stage with the fan.
