Mariah Carey's latest revelation has set social media buzzing. During her recent appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, the pop icon revealed that she has a recorded and unreleased duet with Michael Jackson.
According to Mariah Carey, the track was ready to go but was blocked from release because of plans by Jackson's estate. She stated:
"I am so upset it's not coming out on this album, it should be on there. Every time I would play it for somebody, they would [say] 'wow'"
She also added:
"There was an issue with his estate because they are doing something really huge for him [in the future], and this [song] we didn't know would kind of usurp that situation."
Fans reacted to this, saying:
"Hold up… Mariah Carey just casually said she’s ‘so upset’ her collab with Michael Jackson is not coming out? 😭 Like, can you imagine the absolute chaos that song would’ve caused? The charts would have combusted, and we would all be crying and dancing at the same time. Legends only."
Fans' reactions to Mariah Carey's revelation about unreleased Michael Jackson collaboration
Pop Crave took to its official X (formerly Twitter) page to post that,
"Mariah Carey talks to Andy Cohen about her unreleased Michael Jackson collaboration: “I love it. I’m so upset it’s not coming out.”"
Fans were notably quick to weigh in on the comment section of the X post as they penned their remarks. Below are some of their reactions:
"Of course she is upset, it’s all about legacy flexing and clout. Meanwhile, fans wait endlessly while the music industry hoards unreleased tracks for profit. This isn’t artistry; it’s manufactured scarcity to keep names in headlines.", shared a fan.
"Some songs become legends without ever being heard. Mariah revealing an unreleased collaboration with Michael Jackson feels like a treasure locked away from time. Silence never sounded so powerful. 🎶A🌟👍", penned another.
"THIS IS WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS!!! MARIAH X MICHAEL 😭😭😭", declared a third.
Others also chimed in:
"Whoa, Mariah spilling the tea on that MJ collab? The ultimate "what if" in pop history, imagine those voices together. Fingers crossed she dusts it off for the vaults someday. What's your take: should she fight for the release?", commented a netizen.
"imagine having a collab with michael jackson locked away... i'd hack into the vault myself and leak it just for the chaos 😈", wrote another.
"Oh, Mariah, honey, I'm right there with you, gutted! A collab with the King himself? That would've been the ultimate holiday gift we never knew we needed. Please, universe, make it happen someday!", expressed a third.
Mariah Carey explained that she had wanted the duet included on her latest album, Here For It All, which was dropped on September 26, 2025. However, the estate of Michael Jackson reportedly held it back. The singer described the track as "not in the vault, it's right there."
During the Watch What Happens Live interview, Mariah Carey also revisited her infamous "I don't know her" statement about Jennifer Lopez. She also addressed her feud with Eminem and brushed it off as irrelevant.
