In Morning For Ave Mariah Carey
MARIAH Carey is “not a morning person”.
So says the Mirror, which spots the chanteuse “boozing it up” in London’s San Lorenzo eatery at 3am, a time newspapers used to call the wee small hours of the morning.
But bigger morning hours are also out. So Carey had to cancel yesterday’s interview on Capital Radio and reschedule for this morning.
But the Mirror says Carey is not much of a mid-morning person either and had to cancel once more because there “was a logistical problem getting her four-car entourage” to the station from her hotel.
It all adds to the Carey myth if her being a diva. The Mirror is happy to indulge the brand.
Carey has just beaten Elvis Presley’s record for the most Number One singles on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart with her 18th Number One hit, Touch My Body. She is now second only to The Beatles, who have 20 No.1 hits.
Big pop news. But the Mirror wants to say that Carey only drinks fruit juice through straws and during her stay in the UK is “eating only olives and nuts”, facts the Mirror swallows whole.
We have yet to hear from Mariah’s father George Carey, the former Archbishop of Canterbury, nor his thoughts on how the church should pay royalties for Ave Mariah, the tune her wrote in her honour.
But we surely will…
