Mariah Carey is getting bombarded by concerned fans who are begging the Grammy winner for updates on Nick Cannon. His followers grew worried after "The Masked Singer" host shared a message on Friday, July 17, tagging himself in "Heaven" and "Enjoy Earth." He accused the black community of turning their backs on him when he needed them post after he apologized for anti-Semitic comments he made about Jewish people. Despite his apology, the comments caused a downward spiral effect, including ViacomCBS severing ties with the star and axing him as host of "Wild 'n Out."

Nick Cannon caused chaos after he shared the troubling post, tagging his location "Heaven" and reading, "I hurt an entire community and it pained me to my core. I thought it couldn't get any worse. Then I watched my own community turn on me and call me a sell-out for apologizing. Goodnight. Enjoy Earth."
Hours later, Mariah Carey shared a cryptic throwback showing her singing her 1990 hit, "Vanishing," which many thought she was sharing about Nick Cannon's situation. Now, fans have questions and are looking to his ex-wife for answers.

The "Hero" singer even attempted to take the attention away from Nick Cannon by tweeting out prayers to Tamar Braxton, who hours before Cannon's post was rushed to the hospital after a possible suicide attempt.
While some followers added their own prayers to Mariah Carey's tweet, others demanded an update on her twins' dad. "We are all praying for Tamar but what about Nick? We need to know if he's okay," one person tweeted. "Give us an update on Nick please," added another.
Your praying for Tamar but what about Nick, I think he may need a few prayers right about now👀

Others took this as an opportunity to put Mariah Carey on blast, claiming she doesn't care about Nick Cannon's wellbeing.
When one follower wrote, "Your praying for Tamar but what about Nick, I think he may need a few prayers right about now," it caused a firestorm in the comments. "If she doesn’t post it, it didn’t happen???!! Nick’s her kids dad. You know she’s concerned," a person fired back. "Pretty sure she has his number to call him personally. Upside-down face," added another.
Nick Cannon has not shared anything since the scary "Heaven" post, which made fans question his mental state. Many showed their support, while others like Waka Flocka Flame critiqued the star for his apology.
