Mariah Carey Shows Off Her Firefighting Skills

Singer tweets about putting out a small electrical fire just as she was about to perform in Egypt Monday night

The next time Mariah Carey sings the song "Hero," we wouldn't be surprised if she ends up dedicating it to herself.

After all, Mimi did face down a few flames on Monday night and lived to—what else?—tweet about it.

Here's the play-by-play…

"In Egypt gettting ready to go on stage and suddenly there was a surge of power and an electrical fire started under my feet! Wtf?!"

"Naturally, my emergency instincts kicked in and I put out the flames w/a towel. Lol (yet true).

"The funny thing about this ish is an ol'skool radio station in the other room started playing "aww freak out!" @that exact moment!"

Looks like hubby Nick Cannon may have just found a fiery new America's Got Talent act.
