Mariah Carey Shuns Boycott Calls and Performs in Saudi Arabia
Despite the calls for Mariah Carey to not perform in Saudi Arabia, Mariah Carey became the first female international artist to perform in Saudi Arabia.
Prior to her performance, Mariah had been facing heat for accepting the offer to perform after an activist asked her to not perform and shine a light on the plight of women in the country.
Social media video of the performance showed Mariah in her signature dress and her hair uncovered.
