Live at the Pearl, also known as Mariah Carey: Live in Las Vegas was a four-evening promotional concert by American singer-songwriter, Mariah Carey. The concerts were showcased at the Pearl Concert Theater in Las Vegas.

Background

It was rumored in early July, 2009 that Carey would perform a mini-residency The Palms Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.

Carey announced the end of July on her official website that she was going to do four concerts (September 11 and 12 and October 9 and 10, 2009) at The Palms Resort & Casino in Las Vegas in the intimate 2,500 seat Pearl Concert Theatre.

For the September shows, Carey performed her debut single Obsessed from her current album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel as well as the sophomore single "I Want to Know What Love Is". Carey also debuted two other songs from Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, which were "Angels Cry" and "Up Out My Face". Carey and back-in singer/friend Trey Lorenz sang Michael Jackson's song "Rock With You" as a tribute to him.

For the October shows, Carey changed the setlist slightly. The first five after songs stayed the same, however Always Be My Baby was removed and an acapella snippet of the Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel song, "The Impossible", was sung instead. The rest of the songs after stayed the same, apart from "H.A.T.E.U." was sung after "Up Out My Face" and Hero replaced I Want to Know What Love Is as the outro.

On the second night of the October shows, Carey made a further two changes to the setlist. This time she switched Fly Like A Bird for I Want to Know What Love Is and sung an acapella snippet of a Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel song, "It's A Wrap" after Touch My Body. Also on the second night (October 10, 2009) Mariah brought two fans on stage, for the first gay proposal during a concert - causing world wide coverage and excitment that Mariah did this. watch the proposal here:this also had world wide media coverage seen here:
