Deadline reports what each guest will be doing for the service. Carey will be performing her song “Hero”, honoring the first medical professionals and first responders working in the COVID-19 pandemic.
“I have known Mariah from years past, and we’d talked about doing some things,” Osteen said. “They actually contacted us because she wanted to show some support and honor to the first responder[s]… and do her part to bring hope and uplift the nation.”
