Diva delights for Saturday night. Mariah Carey has picked up a last-minute ducat and saved "Saturday Night Live" by replacing a sick Janet Jackson.
Carey, 37, will fill in for Jackson on the March 15 "SNL" telecast, NBC announced Wednesday.
Jackson, 41, was scheduled to perform live Saturday night in support of her latest album, "Discipline," which was released last month.
The singer's publicist said she dropped out because she has the flu and "needs some time to get better."
Carey's latest CD, EMC2, hits the shelves April 15.
