Mariah Carey celebrated Easter in a very special way on Sunday night (April 13). Taking to the roof deck of her New York apartment, Carey, wearing pink bunny ears and silk floral jammies, joined thousands of other New Yorkers in paying homage to the hard-working first responders who are working long hours taking care of the city’s COVID-19 patients.
Clapping and cheering them at sunset, Carey joined a chorus of fellow Manhattan residents in honoring the workers at 7 p.m. New Yorkers have been taking part in the ritual every evening during a period when social distancing has kept them locked indoors, sometimes banging pots and pans or playing horns to let the nurses, doctors, EMS workers and firemen know they are appreciated.
It was a busy Sunday for Mariah, who also joined Joel Osteen for a virtual Sunday Easter service, singing her classic “Hero” in another tribute to first responders.
