Mariah Carey Considers Herself an Icon for Outcasts
photo courtesy of PR Photos/www.prphotos.comMariah Carey believes she’s an icon for outcasts. She explained:
“I felt very much like an outcast when I was younger. No matter where I went, there was always this sense of not really falling into place or into one category. I moved around a lot when I was growing up, so nobody knew me and I was never one thing or the other. Being biracial, I didn’t really have somebody to look at and say, ‘Okay, this person is exactly the same as me, and they’re out there.’”
She added:
“A lot of kids have said that to me, ‘Until you put your first record out, I didn’t feel like there was anybody that was the same as me.’ People who don’t feel like they fit in can identify with me. I promised myself when I was a little girl that I would never forget what it felt like to be a kid. I never wanted to grow up and be out of touch with what that feels like.”
Well, I’m not sure how many people can identify with her diva attitude. I guess there are a lot of divas out there too. Let’s hope she doesn’t inspire more though.

That’s got to be one of the dumbest f**king thing I’ve heard from one of these airheads. They continue to meet my expectations.
