Did Mariah Carey Really Trash J-Lo?

Internet rumors circulated this week that singer Mariah Carey may have trashed Jennifer Lopez in an interview. The alleged quote said that Mariah would rather appear on stage with a pig than with J-Lo. As you can imagine, Mimi is working overtime on the damage control.

"This is just some Internet gossip and it's pathetic that people actually entertain the thought that this could be real. This is another sad example of two strong women being pit against each other," the super diva told People.

Personally, I think that Mariah started this silly rumor herself to garner some pathetic publicity. What a coincidence indeed that her new album is scheduled to be released in just a couple of months.
