Mariah Carey stunned in a sheer black floral corset gown at a pre-Grammy gala in Los Angeles ahead of Sunday’s awards. The 56-year-old singer, honored as Person of the Year at Friday’s MusiCares event, wore the intricate design featuring lace detailing and a small train. She paired the transparent dress with a black off-the-shoulder crop top, matching briefs, and dazzling diamond jewelry, including a necklace, earrings, and bracelets. Her blonde hair cascaded in soft waves as she posed on the red carpet.
During her acceptance speech, Carey expressed gratitude, calling the moment “overwhelming in the best possible way.” She reflected on being surrounded by collaborators and admirers, adding, “Never in my wildest dreams did I think I’d be here with all these magnificent artists singing my songs back to me.” Performers at the gala included Jennifer Hudson, Billy Porter, Foo Fighters, and Taylor Momsen, with attendees like Charlie Puth, Rita Wilson, and Kesha in the audience.
Fans celebrated Carey’s impact online, praising her “legendary career” and “timeless influence.” One supporter noted the event finally gave her the recognition she deserves. The singer previously showcased a similar daring style in February 2024, wearing a sheer Schiaparelli ensemble to the Recording Academy Honors.
