Do-Me Meter: Mariah Time Travels to 1990
Did we jump into a DeLorean and fly back to 1990? Mariah Carey stepped out after dinner at Mr. Chow's in Bev Hills looking like she stepped off the cover of her first album. Love the curly hair au naturel and the simplicity of Mar's dress—no sequined centipedes, such a welcome change. This fashion throwback to Carey's beginning days in the Biz is eons more apt for a 39-year-old woman who's famous for being fond of superskanky hoochie-mama wear.
This is how Mariah should always do cleavage: in a classic li'l black dress, not squeezing her overgrown lovelies into Hello Kitty schoolgirl outfits and desperate-for-attention couture. Funny enough, when M.C. dresses her age, she ends up looking a whole lot younger. In fact, she almost looks age appropriate to the babe-hub. Now, if M.C. could only do something about that horrendous stuck-in-teenyland music of hers.
Mariah Carey, Confirmed Drama Queen
Watch out, world—Mariah Carey's acting again. This time, Mimi's slumming it in a supporting role in li'l indie flick Push, premiering at Sundance this week. Don't fret, those high-maintenance mannerisms are far from dunzo. "She is that diva," says director Lee Daniels. Like we had any doubt.
"People were like 'Ugh, Mariah, what about Glitter?' says M.C.'s costar Gabourey Sidibe. "Well, I say, 'What about Glitter? It's one of my favorite movies!' "
Oh, dear. Someone's obviously under contract from Mariah's people. But this ain't Glitter—Mar ain't the star of this movie. In fact, Mimi filled in for a well-known actress who dropped out of the project.
And you'll never guess who.
Mariah Milks It
Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have found even more ways to embarrass themselves while out together in public. Mimi and her man, at their Halloween bash at Marquee, donned themselves up as milk 'n' cookies. Supersweet and tasty for a li'l bit, but after a while it makes you wanna throw up. Kinda the same way we feel about this couple.
Wearing a cookie costume is Mariah's way of being domestic, since it's doubtful this honey's ever made one baked good herself. Think Nicky knew that dressing up in a giant milk container and posing for humiliating photo ops were likely events when he proposed to Mar a millisecond after they met?
Not sure he would've still popped the question if he'd foreseen the not-so-distant future. And if M.C.'s this gung ho for Halloween, just imagine what the dude's gonna have to do for Valentine's Day to appease her. Now that's frightening.
