Mariah To Guest Judge American Idol
Mariah’s “AI” appearance is part 2 of her well-constructed campaign to promote her new CD, “E=MC2” which hits stores on April 15th. Remember? I gave you a preview of the CD a few weeks ago. Last night on “Saturday Night Live,”
Carey—a quick substitute for the fluish Janet Jackson—performed her current single, “Touch My Body” and her next one, “Migrate,” featuring T Pain with aplomb. The album is loaded with singles possibilities, so two before the album’s release date is no prob.
I visited with Mariah backstage after “SNL” last night, and here are some tidbits I picked up. For one thing, as you could see on the show, she looks amazing. She told us she’s lost 20 pounds after a rigorous diet and exercise plan. Last night, she cheated a little bit on the limo ride up to NBC, though. “Don’t tell anyone, but I had two bits of a piece of Sicilian pizza. I had to have sustenance!” Her trainer, I hope, will forgive her.
In addition to “American Idol,” Mariah is back in Los Angeles this week to finish the all important song sequencing of “E=MC2” and to polish up one or two tracks that are just, almost, not quite finished. “There are three songs you didn’t hear, I think,” Carey said of my early listening session. “You’re going to love one of them especially. It’s very old school R&B.”
