Mariah Carey has revealed she is as prudish as Mary Poppins.

The 'Touch My Body' singer, who is famous for her provocative music videos
and songs, says she couldn't be more different from her on-stage persona.

She said: "It's a dichotomy, I understand. I understand that people think
I'm a ditzy moron. But I'm more like a prude! I'm Mary Poppins. I'm what the
buttoned-up girls are supposed to be."

Mariah - who replaced Janet Jackson on 'Saturday Night Live' this weekend
(03.15.08) after Janet was hospitalized with flu - also revealed she needs
to have a number of personal assistants to ensure she arrives everywhere on
time and on schedule.

She added to Allure magazine: "I have three personal assistants just to keep
up with my schedule."

Mariah's new single 'Touch My Body' looks set to reach number one in the US

Adam Sandler sent Mariah Carey a pink "leaning board" to thank her for
starring in his new film.

The 'Touch My Body' singer, who stars as herself in 'You Don't Mess with the
Zohan', was thrilled when she received the unusual gift.

She said: "When actresses of the day like Marilyn Monroe and Doris Day had
to be sewn into costumes for their films they had to use a leaning board.
They leant back on the board as they were sewn in.

"Anyway, Adam had one of these leaning boards from one of his old films and
I really liked it. So he had one made for me in pink and sent it to me.

Isn't that just the nicest thing? I called him to thank him but he was busy
filming at the time."

Mariah - who stars as an aspiring singer in 'Tennessee', due out next year -
also said she was amazed by the camaraderie on the set of 'You Don't Mess
with the Zohan'.

This is her style. Love it or hate it.

Mariah Carey's body is looking pretty toned. She never goes anywhere without her dog Jack.

JJs Dirt:

A very prominent lawyer in NYC, that shares residence with one of Mariah Carey's producers, claims MC does a bit of cocaine.

The lawyer said one night Mariah was upstairs, and in front of her was "a bowl of coke." He continued by stating, "she uses it on the regular."

I was shocked to find out from several of those who have at one point been in Mariah's circle, that she indeed has used cocaine at different points in her career.

This of course is all alleged as I have no picture proof, but it comes from very prominent sources.

Mariah Carey Flashback: November 2005

Who knows. I know she cares intensely about her throat. She has a "humidifier bedroom" that has mist-jets set into the ceiling which is pitched to collect the condensation.
