Mariah Carey on ‘Idol’ Contestants and Anniversary Plans
“Extra’s” Terri Seymour caught up with “American Idol” judges Mariah Carey and Randy Jackson in Las Vegas, where the top 40 will be narrowed down to 20 in the show’s first-ever sudden death battle.
Jackson explained, “What it means is that 10 people sing and five people have to go that night.” Carey added, “What they're up against is incredibly difficult, and I don't envy them because I like had to learn how to perform on TV, you know, on ‘Arsenio Hall.’”
The superstar will soon be celebrating her fifth wedding anniversary with hubby Nick Cannon… at Disneyland? Mariah smiled, “That might be correct! Well, last year, we celebrated by renewing our vows on the top of the Eiffel Tower and that was like pretty amazing.”
