History
Carey had released her ninth album
Rainbow in November 1999 and decided to go on tour to promote it. Unlike her previous outing, the
Butterfly World Tour, marked Carey's first tour in the U.S. in 7 years since her 1993
Music Box Tour garnered a flurry of bad initial reviews. In addition to visiting more European countries, Carey also visited
Singapore for the first time.

"Rainbow Tour Live Las Vegas" |
The tour grossed $17 million from the North American dates alone, according to
Billboard. Critical reaction was mixed at best, especially in the United States. A lot of people reproached her of having a tired and hoarse voice during this tour. Of the debut American performance at the
Staples Center in
Los Angeles,
Variety said: "Mariah Carey's show begs for either simplicity or coherency."
Of the
United Center performance, and reflecting that this was the first time Mariah was scantily clad touring, The
Chicago Sun-Times said that Carey had "been transformed from a wannabe
Whitney to a wannabe
Britney," and called her approach to concert performance "difficult to fathom."
The final three dates of the tour were pushed back a bit (Boston from April 4 to April 13, for example) after Carey got
food poisoning from eating raw
oysters after the concert in
Atlanta.
