KUALA LUMPUR: A Malaysian concert promoter has won the price-bidding war to get American pop diva Mariah Carey (pic) to perform here first, ahead of her world tour series in Singapore and the Philippines.

According to an industry source, who declined to be named due to the sensitivity of the matter, the newcomer in the Malaysian concert circuit has secured a mega deal amid cut-throat competition to have Carey kicking off the Southeast Asian leg of her world tour in Kuala Lumpur on Oct 22 in Stadium Merdeka.
