How did we not know about this?

Oh yeah, because we stopped paying attention after Mariah Carey morphed into a cartoon of herself. Blaming the failure of Glitter on September 11th. Getting spray-on tans made of real gold. Posing in evening gowns with homeless guys.

That Mariah is making another movie and, frankly, we’re shocked that we weren’t aware of this celluloid threat looming on the horizon before it reached post-production. Guess it’s too late now to gather the villagers and pitchforks.

Her character’s name in this one? Krystal. That’s right! With a "K."

Mariah making movies is like every fantasy role-playing game we played as bored and precocious 8-year-olds, except nobody filmed it, we didn’t have that "aspiring-stripper" bent, and we had to be home before the streetlights came on.

But, wait! Page Six says that early reviews are good.

Word from the set is she’s "really, really good" in it – "It might be the cinema equivalent to the Red Sox winning the World Series," we’re told.

Nice try, anonymous producer-type who stands to make at least a little money if we’re dumb enough to fork over $8 opening weekend.

Now our dander is up. We know the Red Sox, Ms. Carey, and you’re no Boston Red Sox.

Actress and singer Jennifer Lopez is sick and tired of her stage name J.Lo, now she is going to ditch it since it brought on a negative image of her as diva.

The 37-year-old star has a reputation of being demanding and prima donna-like such as throwing little tantrum at times, but Lopez insists it’s just an alter-ego that was meant to be fun but “got out of control and really crazy”.

She told The Sun, “That’s all gone with the ridiculous stories about me throwing tantrums and insisting on Egyptian sheets. That’s all firmly in my past.”

The diva oops I mean Mrs. Marc Anthony wants to take on more serious roles and music projects. But in my opinion, should she learn how to act and sing first before delving into such ‘serious projects’?

Jennifer earned millions from romantic comedies like Maid in Manhattan and The Wedding Planner.

But she added: “If you focus on the money you’re not going to get anywhere. If money is your motivation you’re going to be such an empty shallow person.”
