Mariah plans to celebrate Thursday (April 21) at her official record release party in New York City. Invited guests include P. Diddy, Lindsay Lohan, Denzel Washington, Jay-Z and Kanye West.
In other news, Mariah Carey says that unexpectedly being seated next to her record mogul ex-husband Tommy Mottola and his new wife Thalia at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame gala was "just weird." Mariah tells the Associated Press, "He was a gentleman. He was, nice, but I wasn't about the photo op -- I felt kind of bamboozled."
Mariah has said her husband and former mentor was controlling during their marriage. Mariah says, "That period of my life was so damaging, that it's like, if I even connect with who I was during that period of my life, it's a very physically...I can feel it."
