Mariah Carey Shares Sling Pic, Also Cracked Rib In Accident

Mariah Carey has posted a snap of herself in hospital after she dissociated her shoulder, with hubby Nick Cannon revealing Mimi also cracked a rib during the incident.

As we previously reported, the singer was hospitalised after injuring her shoulder on the video set for the remix of #Beautiful - directed by Cannon.

She has since taken to Twitter to share a black and white photo of herself with her arm in a sling, accompanied with the caption: "Dislocated my shoulder on the remix video with Jeezy, sporting a very fashionable sling for the next couple of weeks!"

Cannon has since shed some further light on Mariah's accident during an interview with CNN's The Today Show, revealing: "I was going to rush to the hospital with her, [but she said,] 'You get back in there and finish that video!'" 

"Then, after they put [her] shoulder back in place, bandaged her all up, she came back to the video early in the morning and finished out everything."

He added: "She was in this nice, beautiful gown, heels on and everything, and was kind of on this platform and reached and slipped and fell on her whole side.

"It was pretty serious. Not only did she dislocate her shoulder, she actually cracked a rib and chipped her shoulder bone."

Despite her injury, Carey is still expected to perform at a Hurricane Sandy Relief benefit show in Central Park, New York on Saturday (July 13).
