Time-travelling Mariah Carey keeps ahead of the pack

Being a diva, it's only natural Mariah Carey wants to get in on the act first. And indeed that was the case as the U.S. star saw in 2013 in Australia - one of the first places to have celebrated the New Year due to time difference.
 Mariah, who just enjoyed a winter break in Aspen, tweeted a snap of herself with husband Nick Cannon, who had a glass of champagne in hand, with the accompanying tweet: "Happy New Year from Australia!" The American Idol judge was clad in a red dress with a silver headband as she partied away.
 Carey is believed to have celebrated in Queensland, where she was spotted just days before with Nick and their 20-month-old twins Moroccan and Monroe. The foursome enjoyed a trip around the Great Barrier Reef, with Mariah spotted tottering around in high heels as she walked the plank to the yacht.
 Other celebs tweeting from Down Under included Keith Urban, who celebrated 2013 an hour earlier in Sydney, New South Wales, which is an hour ahead of Queensland. Keith was there with wife Nicole Kidman while former Spice Girl also enjoyed partying with her family in Oz, sharing a snap from Sydney. She wrote the accompanying messsage: "Happy new year yippee Sydney fireworks da bomb. Love our family and goodbye 2012 hello 2013."
 Carey's family flew by private jet from their winter vacation getaway in Aspen, Colorado to sunny Queensland on Friday. They plan on remaining at this wondrous spot through the New Year before Mariah performs the first show of the Australia leg of her tour at the Gold Coast on January 1.
 They will then head to Sydney for a concert on January 3 before wrapping things up in Melbourne on January 5. Nick will have something to do besides minding the children, as he will be performing DJ sets before each of Mariah's performances.
