Mariah Carey's
has got the
looks and the vocal
talent, pretty rare when
sex appeal means
everything
in today's MTV generation.
This hottie's talented
voice and stunning looks
have made her the most
successful female singer
of the 90's in terms of
record sales.
While
talent
has propelled the singer
to these levels, a bit of
luck helped to
get herself initially
discovered. By innocently
dropping a demo tape with
Sony Entertainment
President Tommy Mottola,
she obtained both a highly
influential record
executive's musical and
sexual interest. Carey
later
went on to marry the
cradle robber in
June of 1993, in a
marriage
that ended in March of
1998. After that, somehow
the Hugh Hefner of the
record business landed
Jennifer Lopez.
The first
Carey album after
Tommy's discovery was in
1990 where her self
titled CD sold over 6
million
copies and got her a
bunch of Grammy Award.
Then she came out with Emotions
in 1991 and MTV
Unplugged in 1992
before her marriage to
the man
twice her age. After her
unfortunate marriage,
Carey released Music
Box in 1993 and Merry
Christmas in 1994,
keeping busy while
single with yearly
releases again with Daydream
in 1995. Daydream
brought several more
Grammy nominations and
got her career sales
figure
to 80 million (damn,
after that kind of
success we're suspecting
she'll
be
the one cradle robbing
in the future!). Carey
finally took a year off
and
released Butterfly
in 1997, which was a
musical turn from her
past
work.
Carey shared
her talents
with an legends in her
music genre in the
release of Divas
Live,
a VH-1 special which
later was released as an
album featuring Celine
Dion,
Gloria Estefan, Aretha
Franklin, and Shania
Twain. Carey later did a
much
anticipated duet with
the other vocal charm
Whitney Houston with the
single
When
You Believe, which
was the theme song for
DreamWorks The
Prince
of Egypt. In 1998,
Mariah wrapped all her
hits together in the
album
#1's,
a compilation of Carey's
numerous chart topping
singles. The final year
of the millennium has
brought her newest album
Rainbow which has
blazed the charts and
includes the most
successful selling
single with
Heartbreaker,
and it continues a
string of #1 hits for
Carey for every year of
the 90's
which hasn't been done
since Paul Whiteman
& His Orchestra in
the 1920s!
Her latest video even
has her getting in a
fight with herself! Now
abstracts.net
is sure us and a million
other men are thinkin'
when they see this video
'why can't she be
getting naked with
herself instead'?
So what's the
latest gossip
on Mariah? Well she
almost had a cat fight
in a New York restaurant
with
none other than Cameron
Diaz, who had insulted
her music in an earlier
interview. While Carey
may have been slightly
drunk which helped give
her
courage to confront the
Something About Mary
star, it shows this
sexy songstress is more
than a fluffy pop
artist, in fact she
claims to
have been a bully in
school! Mariah's also
getting sued by an ex
bodyguard
which appears to be
nothing more than an
attempt by a nobody
loser to win
fame and fortune,
unfortunately for
Mariah, even after the
case was thrown
out and Christopher
Selletti was fined 5
grand, because the bozo
didn't
have the money, some
district judge is
ordering the judge who
threw out
the case to hear
it!
So who's the
latest in Mariah's
love life? She's no
longer an item with
Derek Jeter of the
Yankee's, as
apparently she is hooked
up with the Latin
heartthrob Luis Miguel.
The
two have been sharing
time on Miguel's boat in
Europe, in fact she was
photographed in the nude
by photographers of the
tabloids thinking the
two were secluded. So
far the pictures haven't
surfaced. It should be
added
that Mariah has been
having trouble finding a
home to call her own
because
of her reported 'wild'
lifestyle, being turned
down twice for New York
condos, one being owned
by Barbara Streisand,
nonetheless.
