Why Does Mariah Carey Need Eight Bodyguards?

Tuesday September 25, 2007
Why in the world does super diva Mariah Carey need to be protected by an entire crew of bodyguards? Were they trying to protect her latest plastic surgery purchase? Miss Mariah, 38, was seen attending the Save the Music event at Lincoln Center last week in the company of eight, that's right, eight huge bodyguards, according to spies for Page Six.

As she entered the tent to join Jon Bon Jovi, John Mayer, and others, her guards blocked the path by yelling "Get out of the way! Mariah's coming!" Oh, and she also forced them to temporarily shut down the bathroom while she powdered her nose. Heaven forbid that she should be forced to make small talk with another human being.

Does she think this is 1985 (or when was it she was “famous”)? Even then she wasn’t that great. I used to like her but now it seems she has a bigger head than she deserves! OH well, Mariah… remember, it’s not what anyone thinks of you but yourself.
