Mariah Carey, 56, continues to show off her jaw-dropping weight loss... as she hits Disneyland as the eternal diva enlists an umbrella-carrying aide to protect her from the sun
And Mariah Carey made no exception as she headed to Disneyland on Monday, during which she donned a skin-tight look to help showcase her frame.
The Always Be My Baby hitmaker, 56, wore a bardot black top with a pair of black and white patterned trousers and $1075 (£790) Christian Dior wedges.
In a nod to her surroundings, she wore a pair of Minnie Mouse ears with oversized sunglasses as she shielded herself from the sun.
Known for her diva ways, Mariah was assisted by an aide who held an umbrella over her head to prevent the sun beating down.
Mariah looked incredible in the ensemble, which made the most of her tiny waist and eye-popping bust following her recent weight loss.
Earlier this month, the hitmaker then sat down with DJs Ebro Darden and Zane Lowe to chat in LA, where she teased her upcoming sixteenth studio album.
It marks her first LP in eight years and first since partnering with new music company Gamma for her comeback, after leaving label Epic Records, who released her last album Caution in 2018.
Last month, Mariah released the lead single, Type Dangerous, which debuted at number 95 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Chatting to Zane and Ebro, she teased: 'What is next? Well it's the album coming out! I don't want tell too much about it because I just don't want to reveal the whole thing.'
However, the All I Want For Christmas star confirmed that the album was finished and would be made up of '11 or 12 songs', before adding: 'We got some Mariah ballads' to cheers from the crowd.
She continued: 'Second single is coming soon, I've very excited about it. It's very summery, I like the beat as well'.
According to Forbes, the songstress, who has 19 number one singles, is aiming to get her 20th chart topper with Type Dangerous.
'She's fighting to stay contemporary,' her longtime producer LA Reid told the publication.
And it appears her name still carries much weight in the music industry, after it was reported that fellow superstar Beyoncé 'bowed down' to Mariah and moved out a £25k-a-night penthouse for her.
The singer, 43, had booked a 12-night stay at the Corinthia while performing at London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last month.
However, she reportedly moved out when self-confessed diva Mariah touched down in London, to play at Capital's Summertime Ball.
A source told The Sun: 'Superstars as big as Beyoncé and Mariah want to stay in only the best hotels. Beyoncé had been staying in Corinthia's penthouses.
'But when Mariah flew in, Beyoncé packed up so Mariah could take over her suites. It was like Beyoncé was bowing down to another music queen.'

Jazz legend Chuck Mangione, known for 'Feels So Good,' dies at 84
Two-time Grammy Award-winning musician Chuck Mangione, who achieved international success in 1977 with his jazz-flavored single 'Feels So Good' and later became a voice actor on the animated TV comedy 'King of the Hill,' has died. He was 84. Mangione died at his home in Rochester, New York, on Tuesday in his sleep, said his attorney, Peter S. Matorin of Beldock Levine & Hoffman LLP. The musician had been retired since 2015. Perhaps his biggest hit — 'Feels So Good' — is a staple on most smooth-jazz radio stations and has been called one of the most recognized melodies since 'Michelle' by the Beatles. It hit No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and the top of the Billboard adult contemporary chart. 'It identified for a lot of people a song with an artist, even though I had a pretty strong base audience that kept us out there touring as often as we wanted to, that song just topped out there and took it to a whole other level,' Mangione told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in 2008. He followed that hit with 'Give It All You Got,' commissioned for the 1980 Winter Olympics at Lake Placid, and he performed it at the closing ceremony. Mangione, a flugelhorn and trumpet player and jazz composer, released more than 30 albums during a career in which he built a sizable following after recording several albums, doing all the writing. He won his first Grammy Award in 1977 for his album 'Bellavia,' which was named in honor of his mother. Another album, 'Friends and Love,' was also Grammy-nominated, and he earned a best original score Golden Globe nomination and a second Grammy for the movie 'The Children of Sanchez.' Mangione introduced himself to a new audience when he appeared on the first several seasons of 'King of the Hill,' appearing as a commercial spokesman for Mega Lo Mart, where 'shopping feels so good.' Mangione, brother of jazz pianist Gap Mangione, with whom he partnered in The Jazz Brothers, started his career as a bebop jazz musician heavily inspired by Dizzy Gillespie. 'He also was one of the first musicians I saw who had a rapport with the audience by just telling the audience what he was going to play and who was in his band,' Mangione told the Post-Gazette. Mangione earned a bachelor's degree from the Eastman School of Music — where he would eventually return as director of the school's jazz ensemble — and left home to play with Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. He donated his signature brown felt hat and the score of his Grammy-winning single 'Feels So Good,' as well as albums, songbooks and other ephemera from his long and illustrious career to the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History in 2009.
