Mariah Carey was rushed to the hospital in New York City Sunday night after dislocating her shoulder during a music video shoot.
Carey
was shooting the music video for a remix of her single "#Beautiful,"
which is being directed by her husband Nick Cannon. The New York Post
reports that she was taken from the shoot, which occurred at Avenue and
Artichoke Pizza in Chelsea, but she is recovering quickly.
"She
was taken to hospital late last night, where doctors reset her
shoulder," Carey's rep Cindi Berger said. "She is fine and is recovering
at home."
Carey originally recorded "#Beautiful" with Miguel.
The music video was for a version she recorded with rapper Young Jeezy.
The single is her first from the forthcoming album The Art of Letting
Go.
All jokes aside, Carey has made a few graceful moves lately,
including her departure from "American Idol" after just one season, and
her exit from the roster of manager Randy Jackson, her fellow "Idol"
judge. She also made an appearance in Lee Daniels' upcoming film,
formerly "The Butler," about a black man who worked at the White House
for more than three decades. She plays the man's mother when he was a
boy.
Carey is set to perform on July 13 at a free concert in
Central Park's Great Lawn in partnership with Major League Baseball. She
evidently will still be performing at the event, which is being held to
raise funds for Hurricane Sandy Relief. According to a source who spoke
to the Post, "She will perform, but it is likely she will have her arm
in a sling."
