Even though Cheryl Cole’s name has been linked to the US version of X Factor for months now, sources say that Fox has their eyes on someone else. A source said “The Fox executives are totally against Cheryl joining the panel. They’re saying that together with her accent being difficult to understand, and nobody knowing who she is, she doesn’t have the star qualities to draw in an audience.” So who do they want to be part of the panel? None other than pop diva extraordinaire Mariah Carey! Insiders say that the singer is currently in negotiations to join the panel alongside Simon Cowell and Pussycat Dolls front woman Nicole Scherzinger. A source said “Mariah Carey’s people say she’s fully behind the idea and they’re very interested in taking talks further. Mariah has already had the initial meeting with Fox, so she will more than likely take the spot Simon wanted for Cheryl. While Simon may want Cheryl, he understands Fox’s insistence that he delivers a strong panel to bring viewers, and therefore advertising, in and make as much money as they can.”

Mariah Carey – Oh Santa – New Song
And this can only mean double the good news for Nick Cannon. It looks like Mariah Carey is expecting twins, or so “The enquirer” is reporting. This is what a source had to say about Mariah Carey’s radiant happiness: “Mariah is gushing that she’s going to have twins.” Her husband is probably getting all tripsey-toe about all of this. It means double the happiness and double the fun for him now that Mariah Carey is expecting twins. And he won’t even be able to find peace once the little ones finally leave the womb. Fun, fun, fun, what else could you expect.
Mariah and Nick are seen here leaving Mr. Chow last night in Beverly Hills. Not sure why she is taking her shades half on and half off, maybe she’s going to hold them in position and pose for the paparazzi?
I’m a wee bit disappointed though, her dark roots could use a touch up. Her makeup looks decent which is a nice change for her, although the lack of b**b support is a disappointment. In most every picture of these two, I always see devoted Nick holding her upright in every photo taken over these last several months, sort of like a boy scout helping an old lady cross the street!
An ex of mine tried to walk me like that when we first started dating until I was like… hon, I’m not a baby, I can walk all by myself. You can hold my hand though!

Beyonce will be singing the song to Barack and Michelle Obama’s first dance on inauguration night even though a Presidential Inaugural Committee spokeswoman had said:
“It is our hope that we can keep the song secret until the moment,”
Umm not anymore! Thanks to Beyonce we all now know what she’s going to be singing. She let the cat out of the bag, did someone forget to tell her it was supposed to be kept hush?
In a new statement, Beyonce reveals:
“I am so honored that I will be performing for President Obama and the First Lady. To sing At Last while they have their first dance is a dream come true.”
She adds:
“I could not be more honored and excited that they have asked me to be part of this moment in history.”
She’ll also be performing at the Neighborhood Ball airing on ABC along with her husband Jay-Z, along with, Alicia Keyes, Faith Hill, Mariah Carey, Maroon 5, Mary J. Blige, Shakira, Stevie Wonder, Sting, and will.i.am.
Ever the diva, Mariah flaunts her assets, even in snowy cold weather! She’s been seen around Aspen in her red Dior boots and matching jacket with her devoted hubby Nick dressed in color coordinated outfits. He at least is bundled up!
The two have been checking out the ritzy Aspen designer boutiques but so far, I haven’t been able to find any pictures of them skiing. I have to say that he at least looks dressed and ready to hit the slopes, he’s even wearing goggles.
She looks like Nick’s mama in this photo, and he looks like her pouting child. For some reason, those boots remind me of feather dusters!
Mariah Carey was asked about the rumour that she is pregnant with hubby Nick Cannon’s baby when she guested on the Ellen Degeneres show today.
Very quickly into the sit down interview Ellen said point blank :“People are saying that you’re pregnant.”
Mariah responded by saying, “No, that’s ok.”
Bringing out a bottle of champagne, she offered Mariah a glass and she quickly refused. Ellen, still trying to get to the truth, then tried pouring Mariah a glass of champagne suggesting they could have a toast to celebrate her not being pregnant.
“Oh my goodness,” Carey replied. “I can’t believe her. Why would we toast to that? How about to the future?”
Mariah then pretended to drink the champagne, (not fooling anyone, least of all Ellen) and said it was “too early” for her to drink.
“I only drink after 3 p.m.,” she said.
If she is pregnant and in the early stages, it’s understandable that they may want to keep that information amongst themselves. It’ll become obvious fairly soon if she is. The paps will be on baby bump watch and if there is any sign of a growing belly, they’ll get a photo ASAP.
The World Music Awards organizers awarded Mariah with a Special Achievement honor and it cost them mega bucks to ensure she would show up for 15 minutes of camera time.
The ceremony was held in Monte Carlo, Monaco, and the UK’s Daily Mail is reporting that she demanded a private jet which cost $156k, a penthouse suite at the Hotel de Paris (tres exclusive) at $15.6k per night for two nights.
She apparently had the cheek to ask for similar VIP treatment at the hotel for her 15 member entourage of stylists and personal assistants.
It is also reported that the kitchen at the five-star hotel was not up to her standards for dinner so she had some other famous chef named Alain Ducasse summoned to cook her meals and he impressed her so much she had him stay on so that he could teach her how to make a romantic meal for her husband. No tab on what he charged, but think… expensive fee.
The paper went on to say that she insisted on all this extravagance despite being told by organizers that there is a current financial crises going on in the world and their finances were limited.
Diva to the max. Someone needs to put her in her place and say no to her. Her over-inflated sense of self-entitlement is out of control and she needs an attitude adjustment.
Just when I think I’ve seen it all when it comes DIVAS and their antics, Mimi shows me how life as a Diva is done! Here she is on a private yacht in Capri yesterday getting towel dried by people I can only assume are members of her staff entourage.
Here is her diva list:
* She has 11 bodyguards surround her table in restaurants, so people can’t see her eat
* She insists her dogs travel by private plane or private car only
* She booked every penthouse in Claridge’s hotel, so she can have ultimate privacy
* She insists they install a $20,000 gym next to her penthouse suite
* She will never use public transportation again, “I’ve already been on the bus I don’t need to go back on the bus.”
* She keeps 20 humidifiers around her bed
* She likes being carried around, because wearing high heels all the time hurts her feet
* She doesn’t have a Birthday, “Honestly, I don’t even have birthdays. I call them anniversaries.”
* She won’t wear flat shoes ever! She said, “My feet repel them.”
She herself has personally said:
“I guess I am a diva in many ways. I can be difficult and a little bit rigid about what I want”
But then she added: “I don’t think I’m demanding enough.”
A diva must be properly taken care of which is why I have to admit, I’d like to be one someday!
Look at Mariah’s ear piece, it looks as though it is diamond encrusted. Somehow I doubt it is diamonds, but more likely crystals or cubic zirconia. Mariah really likes her accesories shiny. Her microphone, eacpeice, earings, and sunglasses all have some sort of bling on them!
