Mariah Carey replies to rumours

Mariah Carey insists she sips her soda just like the rest of us, according to a published report. The singer told the New York Post she takes exception to rumours that one of the members of her entourage has the job of tasting her food and wipes down her cans of soda with disinfectant before they're opened up. A stern "Please", was Carey's reaction to the rumour. She said although she is careful among germs to protect her voice, she doesn't "care that much". Carey said she opens her own soda and drinks it with a straw.

Meanwhile, the singer hints she's looking for love. At a listening party for her new album "Charmbracelet", Carey mentioned to reporters that while she's solo these days, she is definitely looking for a man. But that man probably won't be rapper Eminem. One of the songs on the new album seems to be directed at the rapper. In June, Eminem told Rolling Stone magazine that he and Carey had dated briefly and that he didn't care for the experience. "Don't believe the hype," he told the magazine. He also added that Carey "doesn't really have it all together".

But Carey gets back at Eminem in the song "Clown". The lyrics read in part: "You should have never intimated we were lovers. I gotta break it to you delicately - who's gonna love you when it's over? Who's gonna care?" Carey doesn't acknowledge she wrote the song as a response to Eminem. She only says she "wrote all the songs except for one or two."
