Mariah Sings for "McBeal"
So it only makes sense producers would need their own Charo. Enter Mariah Carey, who in the latest round of stunt casting has signed on for a guest appearance on Fox's quirky legal series.
Despite getting slammed for her acting chops in the box-office dud Glitter, the recovering songbird will join Calista Flockhart and company when production begins this month on the episode, titled "Playing With Matches," scheduled to air January 7.
The installment will feature Carey, along with the introduction of Jon Bon Jovi's recurring character and the return of Jami Gertz's Kimmy Bishop, who files a lawsuit against a dating service after it refunds her money and declares her "unmatchable." Carey will somehow figure into the lawsuit plot, and she'll be belting out her new single "Lead the Way," from the Glitter soundtrack.
It is one of many appearances Carey has booked since her recent mental breakdown and hospitalization. Carey performed Friday at the VH1 Vogue Fashion Awards, and on Sunday, Carey struggled somewhat during her performance at the United We Stand benefit concert in Washington, D.C.
The good news is that Ally McBeal has become the unofficial 13th step for recovering celebrities. Carey joins a handful of other troubled stars who have sought refuge in the law offices of Cage & Fish, including Robert Downey Jr. and Anne Heche.
Already this season, the Fox series has enlisted the celebrity assistance of Elton John, Bon Jovi, Jacqueline Bisset and Dame Edna Everage.
Carey also joins a long list of musician-types to have lent their services to the David E. Kelley show, including Macy Gray, Gloria Gaynor, Chubby Checker, Barry Manilow and Sting.
