Her outing in London comes after Mariah announced she is returning to Australia this year to headline Fridayz Live, marking her first tour Down Under in over a decade.
Daily Mail Australia exclusively revealed that the pop star will play shows in Sydney and Melbourne later this year.
And this October, Fridayz Live hits the road for a massive Australian tour after a year off, bringing a string of major artists to Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth.
Five-time Grammy winner Mariah, who was recently on tour in Asia for the 20th anniversary of her album The Emancipation of Mimi, will perform alongside US rapper Wiz Khalifa and Pitbull.
'I missed you terribly, certainly the fans and the people, the beautiful land and the animals, you know, it's Australia, c'mon!' she said.
Mariah is bringing her dazzling glamour and a setlist stacked with chart-topping tracks to Fridayz Live including Fantasy, Always Be My Baby and We Belong Together.
The pop favourite is also set to bring her Celebration of Mimi tour, commemorating the 20th anniversary of her acclaimed 2005 album The Emancipation of Mimi, to international audiences, with Australian dates expected to be announced soon.
'Mariah has been eager to reconnect with her Australian fans,' an entertainment promoter told Daily Mail Australia.
'The Celebration of Mimi tour is the perfect opportunity to do so, and plans are underway to include Australia in the tour itinerary later this year.'
Mariah recently teased fans with an Instagram video featuring an Australian flag and kangaroos marked on a calendar, hinting at upcoming tour dates in the country.
This follows the cancellation of her planned 2018 Australian tour due to a 'scheduling conflict'.
While official dates and venues are yet to be confirmed, fans are encouraged to stay tuned for announcements.
Tickets are expected to sell quickly once released, given the singer's enduring popularity and the anticipation surrounding her return to Australian stages.

Gregg Wallace apologises to anyone he has hurt - but insists: 'I'm not a groper'
Gregg Wallace has spoken about his sacking from MasterChef after inappropriate behaviour while working for the BBC - but insisted he is "not a groper, a sex pest or a flasher". Wallace, 60, has apologised after a report, commissioned by the cooking show's production company Banijay UK, found 45 out of 83 allegations were substantiated. In an interview with The Sun, he said: "I know I have said things that offended people... I understand that now - and to anyone I have hurt, I am so sorry. "I don't expect anyone to have any sympathy with me but I don't think I am a wrong 'un." 1:34 MasterChef co-host John Torode also had an allegation that he used an "extremely offensive racist term" upheld, as part of the same investigation. Torode, who insisted he had "absolutely no recollection" of the alleged incident, has not had his contract for the show renewed. Wallace has now defended Torode, saying: "I've known John for 30 years and he is not a racist. "There is no way that man is a racist. No way. And my sympathies go out to John because I don't want anybody to go through what I've been through." At one point, Wallace became tearful during the interview when describing the impact of the investigation on his family. "I have seen myself written about in the same sentence as Jimmy Savile and Huw Edwards, paedophiles and sex offenders. That is just so, so horrific." In respect to the specific allegation of unwanted touching, Wallace denied groping a woman and said that, while he was attempting to flirt with her, he did believe the contact it was consensual. "She gave me her phone number. I considered that to be intimacy. It was 15 years ago. Me, drunk, at a party, with my hand on a girl's bum," he said. He also accepted he had briefly appeared with a sock on his private parts in front of four colleagues in MasterChef studio. But he said his is not a flasher, and people were either "amused or bemused" but not distressed. On the broader allegations about using inappropriate language, Wallace accepted the criticism and suggested that some of his conduct could be explained by his autism and his background. "I know I am odd. I know I struggle to read people. I know people find me weird. Autism is a... registered disability. Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not real." He also blamed his former career: "I'm a greengrocer from Peckham. I thrived in Covent Garden's fruit and veg market. In that environment that is jovial and crude. It is learned behaviour." Wallace told the newspaper he is now scared to appear in public: "I go out now in a disguise - a baseball cap and sunglasses, I don't want people to see me. I'm scared."

Larry Emdur set to make SHOCK purchase after 'outrageously stupid' video goes viral
Larry Emdur has revealed his next high-end purchase after going viral on social media. The beloved Channel Seven star took to Instagram last week to share a hilarious clip off the back of a rumoured romance with the Sunrise Cash Cow. The video showed Larry holding up a piece of paper that read: 'Just because I got kicked out of high school doesn't mean I'm stupid.' The Morning Show host had more to say with subsequent cards; however as he picked up each one, Larry neglected to bring it to the front of the pile, leaving only his first card visible. 'To all the haters and frootloopy fruitbats who looked at my last few posts and actually really truly thought I had an affair with the @sunriseon7 Cash Cow. How stupid do you think I am?? Here's my response,' he captioned the cheeky clip. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The post certainly resonated with friends and followers, racking up more than 28,000 likes. Responding to the reaction on Saturday, Larry revealed just how viral the post had gone, joking he may be about to swap the Seven studio for a swashbuckling life on the high seas. He shared a photo that showed a 30-foot-long pontoon boat that had been designed to look like a pirate ship. The unique item is currently for sale on Facebook Marketplace with the seller, who is based in Michigan, asking a princely AU$36,000 for it. Captioning the image, Larry revealed that his previous video had clocked up almost one million views since he posted on Monday. 'When my last post (that was outrageously stupid) hit 100k views I said to [my wife] Sylvie: "If that s*** post reaches 1 million views I'm going to buy this pirate ship",' Larry wrote. 'Ummmmm, better get my eye patch and hook ready.' Larry again proved his on-point social media game, with followers flooding the comments to praise his giggle-worthy posts. The post certainly resonated with friends and followers, racking up more than 28,000 likes. Responding to the reaction on Saturday, Larry revealed just how viral the post had gone, while revealing that he may be about to swap the Seven studio for a swashbuckling life on the high seas 'This is the best thing I've seen on the internet today,' one fan wrote. '@larryemdur pictures of you on your ship please and thanks. Eye patch optional.' Summing up the sentiment of many, another offered: 'You are so funny. Keep it coming.' The post comes after Larry shocked fans by revealing an unexpected romance with a Channel Seven co-star. The Gold Logie winner took to Instagram last Saturday to share a photo that showed him getting up close and personal with one of his colleagues. It was all in good fun, though, as Larry was merely recreating the viral footage of billionaire tech CEO Andrew Byron who was caught canoodling with his company's HR chief Kristin Cabot at a Coldplay concert in Boston. The affable TV veteran shared a side-by-side photo that showed the viral moment next to Larry looking very comfortable with the Sunrise Cash Cow. Larry, playing the part of the HR exec with aplomb, looked chuffed to be in the company of his bovine belle, who lovingly wrapped her hooves around the presenter's chest. He captioned the hilarious photo with a sincere apology to his wife of 30 years, writing: 'Sorry, Sylvie x.' The post was met with a flurry of laughing face emojis, with many praising the former Price Is Right host's sense of comic timing. Meanwhile, Larry is still very much happily married to Sylvie, with the couple celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary in December.

Gurnaik Johal: ‘I had no idea Zadie Smith was such a big deal!'
My earliest reading memory I used to regularly reread my bright green copy of the Guinness Book of Records. I can still clearly picture the woman with the longest fingernails in the world. My favourite book growing up I loved the world-building in Michelle Paver's Wolf Brother series. Its stone age setting was different to anything I knew, but so easy to imagine being a part of. The book that changed me as a teenager I bought NW by Zadie Smith because its cover design was so striking. I had no idea she was such a big deal! Once I finished it, I sought out the books that she recommended. That's how I ended up reading Elizabeth Strout, George Saunders and Gustave Flaubert – which was a very good place to start. The writer who changed my mind I didn't read biographies until I stumbled upon Dana Stevens's book about Buster Keaton, Camera Man. She changed my mind about the genre, and now I can't watch Keaton's films without thinking about scenes from the book. The book that made me want to be a writer Reading short stories at university made me want to become a writer. Extra by Yiyun Li, A Temporary Matter by Jhumpa Lahiri and Recitatif by Toni Morrison stand out as early examples that got me to think differently about reading and writing. The book or author I came back to I didn't get Heart of Darkness at all when I first read it, and was too quick to judge it. Thankfully, I revisited it and now count Joseph Conrad as one of my favourite writers. I love his prose style and the scale of ambition in his novels. The book I reread Teaching courses on the short story allowed me to regularly revisit some favourites. Two stories that never left my syllabus were Pet Milk and Paper Lantern by Stuart Dybek. After dozens of rereads, Dybek's writing always feels new – I get swept along every time. The book I could never read again I listened to Karl Ove Knausgård's My Struggle while training for a marathon. I think if I read it again, it would invoke some kind of Pavlovian response. The book I discovered later in life I have myself to blame for reading Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe later than I should have – it was on my university course but I missed the lecture. Since reading it, I struggle to get on with novels that don't have any oomph to them. To hold my wavering attention, there's got to be a sense of adventure and play either at the level of the plot or the sentence – Robinson Crusoe has both. The book I am currently reading I'm slowly making my way through Larry McMurtry's epic western Lonesome Dove, which is a comedy of manners set on a cattle drive from Texas to Montana. The free indirect style is very Jane Austen and the dialogue very John Wayne. My comfort read I sometimes take Sheila Heti's Alphabetical Diaries on the tube to work. Dipping in and out of it at random is as close as I can get to meditation during rush hour. Saraswati by Gurnaik Johal is published by Serpent's Tail.
