Mariah Carey gets drunk at awards ceremony
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 8 January 2010
I’m not sure there was ever any speculation over why Mariah Carey appeared to be drunk when she accepted the award for Best Breakthrough Actress for her role in upcoming film ‘Precious’ at the Palm Springs International Film Festival earlier this week. But when she subsequently appeared at the People’s Choice Awards on Wednesday, someone asked her what the deal was anyway. It turns out she was, erm, drunk.
Mariah explained: “We’d been sitting there celebrating this whole time, we had splashes of champagne. I hadn’t eaten. It was fun. If people don’t understand me and think I’m just this girl who stands by a microphone and sings ‘Hero’ then they’re definitely not going to get me. If people knew me they would understand I have a sense of humour and basically that’s what gets me through life”.
