Mariah Carey - “Elle” August 2008

Mariah Carey - “Elle” August 2008

Mariah Carey talks about her new body, new record and hot new man in the August 2008 issue of Elle magazine. Here are some of the key points Mariah drove home:

On her unhappy past: “When I was in an unhappy place in my life, I always wanted to be kidnapped. I just wanted a way out, but didn’t have one.”

On Nick Cannon saving her: “He sort of kidnapped me and took me on a helicopter ride. Then he re-proposed. (His first proposal had taken place on Mariah’s roof in Manhattan a couple of evenings prior and involved the hiding of a 17-carat diamond ring inside a candy ring pop.) They’ve been calling me Cinderella since I first started out, so, of course, being Cinderella… Most people would think, Okay, please! This doesn’t happen in real life.”

On keeping her and Nicks’ romantic involvement on the down low: “We really kept the whole relationship aspect of it quiet. Therefore, we didn’t really ‘date,’ you know what I mean? Because that would have been not quiet or private. I think we didn’t want to give people a chance to be like, ‘What are you doing? What are you talking about? This is so quick… are you sure?”

On her racial ambiguity naturally attracting her to Barack Obama as a presidential candidate: “I can relate a lot to so many of the stories he tells. Clearly I am not the political analyst of the ages, but this is something that hits me on a deeper level than anything I’ve ever experienced growing up… I would be honored if he wanted me to be involved in any way. Right now I’m kind of watching from the sidelines.”

Haters, take a deep breath!!! No reason at all to hate, period.

Loads of blessings to Nick and Mariah!

That is not Mariah’s body. Mimi’s retoucher strikes again!

i like her @ 07/08/2008 at 11:19 pm

I have made fun of Mariah in the past, but now it’s not so funny anymore. She was really hurting and it’s not good to bash people when they are already down.

I luv her music. I luv her new CD. It’s really incrediblly good. That’s all that matters. Oh, and I hope she will be very happy with Nick Cannon too.

I love her.
Haters please leave her alone and I’m sure that you will never get better than Mariah, so don’t jealoussss ya!!!!

I don’t know how many of you *really* work in publishing but I do and I know photoshop. Of course the picture is photoshopped, they ALL are because if they weren’t, people wouldn’t buy. You all included come here to look for perfection. Even Angelina gets airbrushed and believe me, I love her too. To clear this **** up, it IS Mariah’s body, her face isn’t stuck on someone else’s. The body is most likely made thinner but it isn’t a head stuck on someone else. and OH MY GOD get over the hate.

“the more you curse me, the more you’re blessing me…”
