Mariah Carey dresses for her ex
Mariah Carey is still having fun with ex-husband Tommy Mottola. It's not enough that she made a video, "Honey", in which she's saved from an older gangster-type by a young stud riding a jet ski. In her new video, "We Belong Together", Carey wears the Vera Wang wedding dress she sported during her 1993 wedding to Mottola.
As in "Honey", Carey is attached in the video to an older man who only wants to go ballroom dancing and partake in activities preferred by older people. She's rescued by another young stud who wants to show her the good life. The title, "We Belong Together", is a reference to the young man... not the old one. Ouch.
Mottola may not be amused when he's shown the finished product. Ironically, he and Carey are both at the same record company again (Island/Def Jam) after leaving Sony Music separately in the last couple of years. "We Belong Together", by the way, is one of a half dozen very strong tracks on Carey's upcoming album, "The Emancipation of Mimi".
The whole CD is excellent, especially a track produced by the Neptunes and featuring Snoop Dogg. Called "Say Anything", I predict this single will help re-launch Carey and catapult her back onto the charts. More on "Emancipation" tomorrow. (Fox 411)
