Mariah Carey extinguishes electrical fire on stage with towel in Egypt before concert

Fans know Mariah Carey as a heartbreaker. But a firefighter?

Carey revealed on Twitter Monday that she stopped an electrical fire with a towel just before taking the stage in Egypt.

“In Egypt getting ready to go on stage and suddenly there was a surge of power and an electrical fire started under my feet!” she tweeted. “Wtf?!”

Carey added that her “emergency instincts” told her to suffocate the fire with a towel.

According to the songstress, a local radio station seemed to be in tune with the crisis and played the appropriate soundtrack.

“The funny thing about this ish [sic] is an ol’skool radio station in the other room started playing ‘aww freak out!’ @that exact moment!”

Carey is currently on tour in the Middle East. She recently performed against a backdrop of the Giza Pyramids.
