Chris Applebaum to direct new video
In the press conference for E=MC2 at The Peninsula Tokyo Monday, June 2nd, Mariah confirmed that her next single will be "I'll Be Lovin' U Long Time". "What do I know about the video? I know that it's gonna utilize a lot of the beautiful nature obviously that you get when you go to Hawaii. It's a gorgeous place. And I don't wanna be talking about some... to my idea before I put it out there but there's another element to it that's really fun that I don't think anyone else has done yet. So I'm kind of looking forward to that. Chris Applebaum is the director. I've never worked with him, but I really like his work."
Chris Applebaum's most recent work includes directing music videos for Rihanna ("Umbrella"), Mary J. Blige ("Just Fine") and Jonas Brothers ("SOS"); and television commercials for Old Spice, Carl's Jr., Cover Girl, Hugo Boss. He received MTV's 2007 Video of the Year Award for Rihanna's "Umbrella".
In more news from the Chinese press, according to reports from Apple Daily Hong Kong and Apple Daily Taiwan, Mariah was late for 7 hours to the press conference at The Peninsula Tokyo. She was scheduled to be there at 5:00pm but didn't show up until midnight. The photo call only lasted for 20 seconds and each journalist could only ask one question. Mariah said she will go to Hawaii to shoot the music video to "I'll Be Lovin' U Long Time" but Nick won't be going with her but will meet her there a few days later. Mariah said originally she wanted to invite Nick Cannon to be in the "Touch My Body" video but couldn't make it in the end. She plans on having kids but not now because she is planning to tour.
