Carey appeared on the program to promote her upcoming Christmas shows in London and Paris, but the fact that Halloween is still weeks away and she already has her tree up really baffled Twitter.

@GMB just watched the interview with miss @MariahCarey and 3 words popped into my head "October" and "Christmas tree" 😂

Calm down @digitalspy. She's Mariah, Queen of Christmas. If @MariahCarey wants a Christmas tree all year round, that's what she'll get. https://t.co/rtI1thYIrB

During the interview, Carey learned the news of the mass shooting in Las Vegas and reacted during the live taping.
“Wow, that’s awful. Again, I pray for the victims and hope all these can stop as soon as possible.You know I have spent a lot of time in Vegas, and this type of thing … happening anywhere is a huge tragedy,” Carey said. “I continue to pray for the victims. I hope we have an end to this as soon as possible.”
“It’s terrible, because people just going out to listen to music. Really they’re out for the night, and something like this happens; it’s shocking,” Carey continued.
Twitter fans were quick to respond to the news and Carey’s reaction in a flurry of tweets shared following the breaking news.
Give Mariah Carey a break. She was on GMB to discuss a Christmas tour not the Las Vegas shooting. It's not her fault she was blind-sided.

Mariah was booked to do an interview about her UK Christmas tour. Obviously news events in Vegas have now taken precedence. https://t.co/3SxHKPXYen

We told Mariah's people before the interview.
Her reaction seemed very relevant given she's a performer who often has residence in Vegas. https://t.co/6sVMSUMvHK— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) October 2, 2017
Carey also posted her prayers for the victims on Twitter.
Horrified to hear about the shooting in #LasVegas. My thoughts are with the victims and their families. Praying for everyone's safety 🙏💔
