Mariah Carey was conducting an interview on live television promoting her new Christmas music when the news broke of the mass shooting in Las Vegas.
Carey had been scheduled for an interview on “Good Morning Britain” live from her Beverly Hills home when the news broke in the middle of the broadcast.

Carey learned of the attack at the same time the news broke, meaning she had to react to what was happening live in the middle of her interview. The interview was then cut short to turn the news broadcast to the breaking story.
However, some people who didn’t know the interview had been shot before the news broke criticized Carey’s interview for not being compassionate enough.
