Mariah Carey Cancels Hawaii Show Over Coronavirus
While the coronavirus rages on, like many others catching flights, Mariah Carey was set to catch one to Hawaii for a show in Honolulu, but is now canceling over concerns of contracting the virus.
While she scheduled to appear next Tuesday, March 10, the legendary songstress took to social to make an official announcement. She states, “Aloha Hawaii!! I’m so so sad to have to announce that I’m postponing my show to November. I was so excited to come back to Hawaii on my “anniversary month” but evolving international travel restrictions force us to consider everyone’s safety and well being.”

She adds, “With that said, I am SUPER excited to be coming to Honolulu in November and perform my special All I Want for Christmas Is You & Hits extravaganza for the first time ever in Hawaii! I can’t wait to see you! Stay safe!! ❤️❤️”
Furthermore, although there aren’t any confirmed cases on the island, it’s reported that economists are anticipating that the coronavirus’ economic impact will be greater than that of SARS.
Economic expert Paul Brewbaker told Hawaii News, “SARS was a $350 million or $400 million cost to Hawaii tourism in today’s dollars. This is probably going to be larger.”
