Mariah Carey Surprisingly Joins Olivia Newton-John For “Hopelessly Devoted To You”

Singers have a unique singing style that is all their own, so I’m sure most people can’t imagine Mariah Carey and Olivia Newton-John sharing a stage together. Well, it happened! The Grease star joined the pop-singing songstress onstage back in 1998 for a little duet. The crowd went nuts as Olivia appeared and the two harmonized the song together.

They embraced as the song continued, adding beautiful harmonies into an otherwise single-melody tune. The final note was magic as Olivia took on the original ending note and Mariah took on a much higher note, as she’s known for her incredible high notes.

The video has been re-circulating on YouTube. It was originally posted online back in 2016. β€œThis moment right here gives me chills!! For some reason, I cry every time I see this performance! Love Olivia and Mariah is my whole world!” one fan writes. Another says, β€œI like how she always lets the original singer let her do her thing and she acts as a back up vocal even though we all know she could slay any song.”

Another fan makes a good point of the video, saying, β€œIt’s ironic how when Olivia Newton-John sings this song it sounds so 50s yet when Mariah sings this song it magically sounds 90s lol. I love them both though. Especially my Olivia!!πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜β€ Many others agreed and also said that Mariah was very respectful to the original singer and has always been with other artists as well.

I have to admit, the two do make a lovely singing pair, especially on this song. Check out the video below to see the whole live performance! Maybe they’ll come back together one day for another rendition…
