Mariah Carey sent fans wild by sharing a TikTok duet with Ryan Reynolds of her classic hit Fantasy.
The singer turned into the actor’s biggest fan in recent weeks as she admitted to watching his latest movie ‘Free Guy’ “nine times in a row”.
In the blockbuster, Ryan plays a bank teller who discovers he’s actually a background player in an open-world video game and decides to become the hero of his own story.

Featured on the soundtrack is Fantasy, the lead single from Mariah’s fifth album ‘Daydream’ and her ninth US No. 1 single and, after Ryan shared a clip of himself performing a rendition of the track, she too got in on the action.
“Go see Free Guy this weekend so I can stop doing this,” penned Ryan alongside his video, which showed him sitting still before busting out dance moves and lip-syncing to the chorus.
Meanwhile, Mariah’s post featured her belting out the early part of the track before throwing some major side eye to Ryan when his performance began
“#duet with @vancityreynolds. That wasn’t part of the plan! #FreeGuy #Fantasy,” she penned.
In his response, the ‘Deadpool’ actor joked about his wife Blake Lively’s August 25 birthday, quipping: “My favorite thing that’s ever happened on August 25.”
Mariah, who recently released the radio hit Somewhat Loved (There You Go Breakin’ My Heart) with Jam & Lewis, is in the midst of recording a new album and working on her 2021 Apple TV+ holiday special.
Speaking about the new music, she recently told fans during an online discussion: “Oh my gosh, you guys! I’m like obsessed with what I’m doing right now. But I can’t reveal it yet. It’s exciting!
“I’m really with this music. I haven’t made [music in this way] in years. During the pandemic, I was able to rest my voice and get it back to where it needs to be. So here we are!”
