Mariah Carey wears heels at home

S
inger Mariah Carey is so obsessed with wearing heels that her casual slippers have height too.

“I wear high heels all the time. Even my slippers. I can’t even walk in flats,” Carey said.

Femalefirst.co.uk reports that her love for heels proved to be problematic while filming her new movie “Precious”, in which she plays Miss Weiss – a world-weary welfare officer who reveals the tragic life story of a teenager abused by both her parents.

“Mariah was born as an embryo in stiletto heels. She walks – even in her home – on her f***ing toenails,” said director Lee Daniels.

Mariah Carey happy without make-up


Singer-actress Mariah Carey thinks playing a dowdy social worker in her new movie “Precious: Based on the Novel ‘Push’ by Sapphire” has boosted her self-confidence because she no longer worries how she looks.

The 40-year-old shed her glamorous image for her role and says having to spend hours in front of a camera with heavy lighting and no make-up has made her feel more comfortable with staying natural at home, reports fametastic.co.uk.

“I think it was crucial to dress down. It was tough because making music videos is so different with the costumes, the angles, the lighting, stuff like that. In ‘Precious’, we sat in a fluorescent dentist’s office and it was the worst-lit scene of the movie. The over-lighting emphasises the dark stuff under your eyes,” she said.

“I guess now I’ll feel better about myself when I’m dressed normally at my house and walk past a mirror and see myself. I’ll be like, well I’ve looked worse,” she added.

Carey says she identified with the story of the movie which follows a sexually abused, overweight teenager.

“The first relationship I was in, without realising it at the time, was abusive emotionally. That is in the past, but that helped me get to a place where I could grow and use that stuff in my work,” she said.

We can’t say for sure whether Mariah Carey is pregnant or not according to some rumors, but what we can definitely say is that she already has one baby in her house. It is her new puppy – Jack Russell terrier. The star together with her husband Nick Cannon chose to call their funny doggy Jackie Lambchops.

During Phoenix House benefit held in Southampton, New York, Cannon shares with PEOPLE that she finds her dog to be really amazing and cute.

This puppy appeared three weeks ago. It was given birth by ChaCha, other Jack Russell terrier belonging to Carey. It is like a mini replica of its mother. The singer announced the birth of the puppy on Twitter and called it “da baby” all the time.

But how did the couple manage to pick up such a name for their doggy?

The name was created by Mariah Carey when they both were watching The Sopranos. She just made a combination of the words that she usually uses.

Nick Cannon confirms that, of course, they will have their own baby one day. According to him, they already have it mind. But then they won’t be able to work so much as to take care of a child means a hard gig, moreover, – a full-time one.
