Mariah calls in to the Wendy Williams Show

	Wendy Williams

Mariah: We always do, and I'm always festive with you, you know it. Am I not always festive?

Wendy: Yes you are, and I was just talking about you the other day, how you bring the Tiffany glasses and I keep them. And, there's so much to talk with you about, I'll just give you a little teaser, O.K.?

Mariah: Okay, how are you doing though, good?

Wendy: Yes, Mariah, everything is going really well.

Mariah: I'm just stressing that I'm being a polite person, see most artists don't care, they just go on and talk about their own selves.

Wendy: Well, we don't mind that, because we know that to be as creative as you all are, you have got to have yourselves as the center of the universe. Is that kind of true or not?

Mariah: Well, I don't know, I mean, it doesn't seem like it to me. I feel like, you know, you gotta give out what you wanna get back.

Wendy: Well, yeah. Well, look, are you dating Rick Fox?

Mariah: [laughs]

Wendy: Ooohhh.

Mariah: No. I just love that that's your first question about the fragrance, we've got all this stuff, you did give me a nice build up, I heard you, I heard you.

Wendy: That's why I gave you the build up, I was coming back around to the fragrance, has Rick Fox ever smelled the fragrance on you? Like at Winston's in Hollywood at one o'clock in the morning when your song "Fantasy" came on, they said you guys were dancing.

Mariah: What? Okay, I am not dating Rick Fox, no. That is not true.

Wendy: Have you ever kissed him?

Mariah: No, I have not kissed him. [laughs] Wendy, why are you acting like we're in third grade and you're passing me a note? "Have you kissed him..."

Wendy: Because we are. We're both very very much able to embrace our 12 year old. I can't wait till you to come in.

Mariah: Yes we are.

Wendy: Can I ask you one thing?

Mariah: About this?

Wendy: No, about the morsel diet.

Mariah: Oh, about the morsel diet.

Wendy: Cause your body's like...

Mariah: I can't even believe people voted that as the number one diet.

Wendy: I know, I saw it too.

Mariah: I heard about it, I didn't see it.

Wendy: You know what I call that? I call that the suddenly diet. That's where you eat just enough and then before you finish swallowing you throw your food away.

Mariah: Yeah, like you definitely can't keep it there or you will eat it. You have to just take like the tiny bit of the morsel of what you want and then get it out of there.

Wendy: Yeah, I totally understand. I've invented some of these diets myself. But look, alright so, this is what we're gonna do. Let's promote your appearance at Macy's and then when you do come to the studio and then I get you under the spell of the truth serum, we will talk about men, bodies, movies, music, people that you love and people that you don't like.

Mariah: People that I don't like. We have to talk about that? We love everybody.

Wendy: By the way, I saw "Mean Girls" finally.

Mariah: You did? Okay, do you understand why I like it or you don't?

Wendy: Yeah, I do.

Mariah: You see? I told you.

Wendy: My thing is, is that I think that you and your squad of girls, you're the mean girls.

Mariah: Yeah, I'm the mean one, but it's only a cover, it's only a cover. Anybody that mean isn't really mean, they just cover up their own insecurities.

Wendy: I like the cover by the way of your representation of your own fragrance and I also really like the commercial, because of course with your angelic voice - nobody does it like you.

Mariah: Aw, thank you, that's very nice. I was like, you know, you never know how this stuff's gonna turn out, but we shot that cover in St. Maarten so I was actually in that pool for like hours, and it looks really nice and serene and whatever, but it was a lot of dudes walking around in there with lights and what not. I thought I was gonna get electrocuted.

Wendy: Alright, so come soon, let's talk about Macy's. You're gonna be at Macy's tomorrow?

Mariah: Yes, 5:00pm, Herald Square, Macy's, very very excited about it. Have to thank the fans in case they're listening for coming out early early early and waiting and I'm sorry that I'm not there to feed you with pizza and give you cocoa and stuff like I usually do, 'cause that's like you know, they've been waiting, they told me that this was like a record breaking thing. I don't know. What is it? Melissa has to say it, I can't say it, go ahead.

Melissa: More than any other person Macy's never had a line like that.

Mariah: That's a nice thing.

Wendy: That is a nice thing.

Mariah: I'm just thankful to them, so I'm just thanking them.

Wendy: What kind of look are you gonna be giving them?

Mariah: I don't know, tomorrow is too far away to know.

Wendy: But whatever it is, it's going to be short and tight.

Mariah: Maybe, it could be a long. No, it's not gonna be long. You would like these boots that I'm rocking today.

Wendy: Just one more thing, and then I'm gonna go. When you hooked up with Karl Lagerfeld, and I know you love those people dearly and that's all great, but Mariah, I so thought that they were trying to make you into something that you enjoy being.

Mariah: But you know what? The problem is, is that dress was shiny. If it had been a matte material that wasn't gonna give you like 85 different like shimmers, like I'm the one who should have known better than to try to wear that on the red carpet, because on the red carpet you can't control anything. Honestly? In person, looking in regular light, it actually looked good, and people were telling me "Oooh, this is the best I've ever seen you", blah blah blah. And then it was like "Oh she's fat, she's huge!" You know, it was like a total drama, so I was like "Okay, whatever."

Wendy: I like the Mariah in the short and tight. And P.S. and I love the purple dress on US.

Mariah: You do? The purple dress on US?

Wendy: Yes. Are you kidding me? I love it.

Mariah: Thank you, that was made by this wonderful lady named Nile, and she hooked it up for me because it matches the bottle of the perfume, that was the whole point. So that was the whole thing.

Wendy: Alright, so look, so have fun everybody, New York City, New Jersey, Connecticut, people from out of town, be at Macy's Herald Square, it's the biggest Macy's in the world, and at 5 o'clock tomorrow, Mariah Carey is going to be there to meet and greet with her new perfume "M" and it's just in time for the holidays.

Mariah: Yes it is, and thank you for that, for reminding me of that, and I hope to see you soon.

Wendy: Oh here we go, here's the 1-2 step.

Mariah: What? Whatchu mean? I'm saying I hope to see you soon, I'll see you. I'm gonna bring a festive package like I always do.

Wendy: Love it. Alright, so have a great day Mariah and I'll see you soon.

Mariah: Thank you Wendy.

Wendy: Alright, take care, bye bye.

Mariah: Bye.

Wendy: See, I may not be friendly with everyone, but Mariah and I, for better or for worse, have been pretty consistent. In my career. In terms of our dealings. We've been pretty consistent. You know why? 'Cause Mariah, Mariah's not scared to face an issue, she's also not scared to not let you just continue to talk and run over. Oh, she's a delightful talker. She'll just let you paint her into a corner and tell you what she's been doing, she'll tell you, or she'll be coy about it, but her body language will twist. You know what I mean? And she always brings the foods and the drinks. I like Mariah. A lot.
