Curvy Mariah Carey fuels baby talk

Mariah Carey was her usual fabulous diva self backstage at the Film Independent Spirit Awards - tottering around on skyscraper heels so high she couldn't walk and having security prop her up all night. The star, upstaging other actresses in a tight black dress showing off her famous curves, was celebrating her cast mates from "Precious", which swept the board at Friday night's awards at the LA Live arena - seen as a more relaxed precursor to the Oscars.

Carey - who famously once said, "I don't do stairs" - had personal security to help her totter onstage. And she further fuelled baby rumors by telling Page Six that she had "something special" on the way. A source said, "Mariah came out as a presenter but she was having trouble in her heels, which were eight inches high and so spiky, she accidentally stabbed herself in one foot before she was helped onstage. "

"She seemed to be the only star hanging onto personal security. Outside the press area she seemed really giddy and was overheard saying jokingly, 'I don't know if I can do this!' And she didn't arrive and leave through an elevator like the other stars. She had a BMW limo pull right up to the stage."

Celebrating without husband Nick Cannon backstage, Carey did nothing to stop rumors that she's pregnant or ready to adopt, telling us, "I have a lot of new acting projects coming up. I am talking to ["Precious" director Lee Daniels] about at least three movies. But there's also something else very special on the way. I can't say any more."

"Precious" dominated the Spirits, winning Best Feature, Best Director, Best First Screenplay for Geoffrey Fletcher, Best Female Lead for Gabourey Sidibe and Best Supporting Female for Mo'Nique. An overjoyed Jeff Bridges took the Best Actor gong for "Crazy Heart". Also there: Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Dave Grohl, Ben Stiller, Robert Duvall, Tom Ford, Lenny Kravitz, Rosario Dawson, Jodie Foster, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Matt Dillon.
