The 56-year-old diva took the stage at San Siro Stadium enveloped in the sparkle of over 300 carats of diamonds. Her jewelry from LEVUMA High Jewelry — a necklace, bracelet, and earrings set in platinum with emerald-cut diamonds — totaled 306 carats of pure brilliance. Each stone was meticulously selected, and hundreds of hours went into crafting the exquisite pieces.
Her jewelry was perfectly matched by an equally show-stopping outfit. Carey wore a stunning white Roberto Cavalli gown adorned with shimmering embellishments, radiating classic Hollywood drama. A plunging neckline, feathered boa, and voluminous retro waves completed the fairy-tale ensemble.
And while the visuals were pure glamour, Carey’s vocals were equally mesmerizing. She opened with the iconic Italian classic “Volare (Nel Blu Dipinto Di Blu)”, before transitioning into her empowering anthem “Nothing Is Impossible” — a fitting musical manifesto to kick off the Olympic Games in style.
