celinefanonline Posted August 8, 2014 at 11:33 PM Posted August 8, 2014 at 11:33 PM Taipei, Aug. 8 (CNA) Mariah Carey has heart-breaking news for Taiwanese fans looking forward to a tentatively announced Taipei concert in October: the hit singer won't "Make It Happen" after all because the venue has been claimed by Celine Dion. "After great efforts to work with and negotiate with other parties, we are sorry to announce that we did not get Taipei Arena's approval but are first on the waiting list," Yu Kuang Music, the hypothetical organizer of any Carey concert in Taipei, said on its Facebook page. "I got the official document from Taipei Arena early this morning," said Amy Ko, a promoter at Yu Kuang Music. "We're so sad to learn the bad news." Carey and Dion had been competing for the venue for Oct. 27-30. Now that Dion is all by herself, the October performance will be her first in Taiwan. Ko speculated that Taipei Arena chose Dion over Carey because the Canadian singer will be able to give two concerts as opposed to Carey's one. Yu Kuang Music has notified Carey's team upon learning the news, she added. It is a pity for Taiwanese fans who almost had a chance at seeing the two best-selling artists perform in Taiwan in the same week. Carey released her 14th album, "Me. I Am Mariah... The Elusive Chanteuse" in May. Dion released a three-disc set titled "Celine une seule fois / Live 2013," which reached the top ten on the album charts in France, Canada and Wallonia, Belgium. Dion has given over 1,500 concerts worldwide but has never performed in Taiwan, while Carey came to Taiwan in 1998 as part of her Butterfly World Tour. Even though she will not be here this year, Carey will perhaps still be able to shake it off and hold another Taipei concert one sweet day.source: Focus Taiwan News Channelbtw the link has already posted in the news topic!! 1 Quote Courage don't you dare fail me now!

It's also his first time in Manila. Currently, he booked his accommodation at the Tune Hotels Aseana.. It's very near the Arena and Mall of Asia. You may want to consider this one or the Microtel. Both hotels are just walking distance to the Arena. http://tunehotels.com/my/en/our-hotels/aseana-city/#http://www.microtel-manila.com/ Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with any of the hotels.

Chula Posted August 10, 2014 at 02:57 AM Posted August 10, 2014 at 02:57 AM Why don't Shakeel and Gafsa discuss the Manila show in the Philipines thread?????? Quote
jeremyv Posted August 10, 2014 at 04:44 AM Posted August 10, 2014 at 04:44 AM Woah there. The thread title actually says concerts in Japan and the Philippines. I see nothing wrong with discussing it here. Now if it's an issue of redundancy, then someone should actually rename the thread to something else. Quote
