Mariah Carey Celebrates New Year's Eve
MARIAH CAREY, who was just nominated for 8 Grammy's, will kick off 2006 with a live performance in Times Square as part of "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve 2006," it was revealed today by the special's new co-host Ryan Seacrest. "This is the first time in the history of DICK Clark's show that they have done a live performance in Times Square leading up to the ball drop," the "American Idol" host adds. "She is the biggest artist of the year, and she will be right there in the middle of all the action.  More than a year after Dick Clark suffered a stroke that caused him to miss the ABC New Year's Eve celebration he's been presiding over for more than 30 years, the legendary TV host has yet to make a full recovery. But Clark, 76, will be in Times Square this year to count down the last hours of 2005 with co-host Ryan Seacrest. And the fact that he has not appeared publicly since his illness does not mean he is not ready to return to the annual event that has become synonymous with his famous name.  We are glad to see him back to business.  We are hoping that he will be in the show, maybe not like usual but it would be nice.  Even though he was digitally put in this pic, he will be ready NY Eve.
