Mariah Carey has recently made rare comment on ageing ahead of the release of her latest album, Here For It All.
The American singer has explained how she deals with getting older in a new interview with Harper’s Bazaar UK.
“I don’t allow it – it just doesn’t happen. I don’t know time,” said the 56-year-old.
Emotions crooner revealed she doesn’t know numbers and she can never acknowledge time, saying, “I have a new song that starts with that line.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Mariah talked about embracing her diva persona and reputation.
“It’s part of my job. What’s the point of a disguise? Just get up, get dressed, go out. If I don’t want to be seen, I’ll stay home,” pointed out the Obsessed singer.
Meanwhile, Mariah also opened up about writing her 2020 memoir The Meaning of Mariah Carey, with journalist Michaela Angela Davis.
“Working on it together was challenging, but it was also therapeutic. We stayed up late figuring out how we were going to put the story forth,” mentioned It’s A Wrap hit-maker.
Mariah already knew that it was going to bring up “bad memories I didn’t want to relive,” while writing her memoir.
“It was a tough situation to go to sleep listening to it; I’d wake up and be kind of freaked out. Because this is me and I went through that,” she noted.
Interestingly, Mariah also offered insight into her relationship with her mother, adding, “We didn’t always have the world’s greatest relationship but certain things she said or did resonate with me as a kid.”
