Spanish becoming Mariah's language of love
The things Mariah Carey does for love. The pop superstar is getting a crash course in Spanish for the sake of her boyfriend, Mexican singer Luis Miguel.
"Mariah wants to understand Luis' language, as well as his culture," says Carey's rep, Cindi Berger. "They're together a lot in Acapulco, and that's why she wants to learn Spanish."
Music journalist Anne Raso tipped me off that Carey needed to become better versed in Spanish because she wanted to record a duet with Miguel. Berger says a Carey-Miguel recording could happen, but there are no specific plans for it.
"They enjoy singing together," Berger says. "But for now it's only when they're alone, in private."
Carey is about to get very public. Her worldwide tour begins Valentine's Day in Antwerp, Belgium. Her first U.S. stop will be in Los Angeles on March 16. Carey's New York date, if you want to pencil it in, will be April 11, at Madison Square Garden.
Berger is unsure whether Carey's Spanish instructor from the Berlitz school will accompany her on the road, but it's a possibility. And a good idea, too, especially if she wants to say, "Call the limo," in Spanish. (New York Daily News)
