US EditionMariah Carey and Michael Jackson Did a Duet, She Says, but the World Has to Wait to Hear to It
Mariah Carey says Michael Jackson's estate is blocking the release of their duet due to plans tied to his delayed biopic, with the song finished but withheld.
- On Wednesday, Mariah Carey confirmed an unreleased duet with Michael Jackson exists but remains withheld by his estate while promoting Here For It All, released last month.
- Carey said the estate is timing the release because Jackson's estate plans a major project and releasing the duet now would interfere with the late singer's larger planned project.
- Built around one of Jackson's classics, Carey sang alongside him on the finished track and added new background vocals, and listeners reacted with amazement.
- Urging action, Carey asked fans to petition management and call Jackson's team to push for the song's release, while Jackson's estate did not immediately respond to Entertainment Weekly on Thursday.
- Now slated for April 24, 2026, the biopic directed by Antoine Fuqua and starring Jaafar Jackson has been delayed three times, citing sensitive references to Jordan Chandler and a global IMAX release.
