Mariah Carey hit the stage at the infamous Nikki Beach in Saint Barth on New Years Eve with a glass of champagne in hand to belt out her hits for revellers.

With the dance floor filled, the 48-year-old grabbed the mic and sang for over an hour serenading guests who danced and sang along with hits including Hero, Always Be My Baby and We Belong Together.

It was a night Ill remember for a long, long time. I feel so fortunate to have hosted New Years Eve in the middle of paradise at Nikki Beach Saint Barth, she told Metro.co.uk.

In classic Mariah fashion, a source close to the performer also told Metro.co.uk that she took to the stage with a glass of Perrier-Jouët champagne in hand.

She later told revellers that she was thrilled to be back in Saint Barth.

The island was left in ruin after Hurricane Irma tore through the Caribbean in August and September 2017.

Mariah was hosting the evening, and was joined by pals including boyfriend Bryan Tanaka.

They stayed for four hours, also enjoying a sit-down dinner.

The exclusive event, one of the islands first major events since the hurricane, saw fireworks light up the night sky overlooking Saint Jean Bay when the clock rang 12.
