\n\tIn a message posted to X and Instagram Stories the morning of her slotted performance in New Jersey, Carey wrote, \u201cNewark and Belmont \u2013 I wish I had better news but unfortunately I\u2019m still sick and have to cancel the shows tonight and on Sunday.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI\u2019m really devastated about it and appreciate your support,\u201d she added. \u201cLove, MC \ud83d\udc94\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe \u201cObsessed\u201d musician had been scheduled to take the stage in Newark Friday, two days after which she would\u2019ve performed in Belmont Park, N.Y. She now has just one show left on the lineup: Dec. 17 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., three days after which she\u2019ll star in a pre-taped special <\/a>ahead of the NFL\u2019s Christmas Day doubleheader broadcast on Netflix.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe two scrapped shows add to Carey\u2019s previously canceled<\/a> Dec. 11 performance at PPG Paints Arena, which she pulled out of just hours beforehand. \u201cPittsburgh, I am sorry to say, I\u2019ve come down with the flu,\u201d she wrote at the time. \u201cIt breaks my heart that I unfortunately have to cancel tonight\u2019s show. I love you all so much.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tIt\u2019s undoubtedly difficult news for the Queen of Christmas to share. Mimi had been excitedly planning the trek for months prior, telling Entertainment Tonight <\/em>in early October<\/a>, \u201cIt is going very well. We just finished up working on my setlist, getting the whole stage together, the ensembles, the fits \u2014 all of it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tCarey\u2019s evergreen seasonal hit \u201cAll I Want for Christmas Is You\u201d is also back at the top of the Billboard Hot 100<\/a> dated Dec. 14, marking the song\u2019s 15th collective week at No. 1 on the chart. <\/p>\n
