Kate Garraway forced to apologise over "diva" joke
GMTV's Kate Garraway has been given a dressing down by bosses after claiming Mariah Carey
"acted like a diva" by having a huge entourage when she appeared on the show. Kate upset
the singer, who was promoting her new single in a pre-recorded chat with Lorraine Kelly,
after writing in her New! column last week: "I've heard a lot of rumours about her being
a diva over the years and guess what? It's all true! While Mariah was very nice, the
amount of people she had in her entourage was hilarious. They outnumbered the entire GMTV
crew!"
Now Kate has been forced to issue a grovelling apology in this week's column. She writes:
"I am really sorry about the furore I caused last week after I wrote in this column about
Mariah Carey's appearance on GMTV. Especially because I am told it has upset the star
herself, which is the last thing I intended. You will remember I said how nice Mariah was.
Everyone at GMTV loved having her on and her performance, typically, blew us all away. But
it was wrong for me to add some jokes and gossip about her being a diva."
"Her management have now told me that I got hold of the wrong end of the stick completely
and I am still reeling from the massive ticking off my bosses gave me for fuelling the
rumours that Mariah is unreasonably demanding. Of course a star of Mariah's magnitude is
bound to have a lot of people around her when she appears on a show like GMTV, especially
as in this instance she also had a group of backing singers as well - no one would expect
anything less. Let's face it - the world would be a much duller place without people like
Mariah and it's only because they are such stars that we all love to gossip about them.
I am so sorry, Mariah, and I really hope that you come back to the UK soon."
