NEW NEWS ON MARIAH CAREY & BEST FRIEND DA BRAT

I will be the first to say, that I DO NOT always believe what I read. So when reading this next story, please by all means do not consider it in any way, shape or form, a reflection or personal opinion of Mariah Carey by Inside Industry Talk. Everyone knows that I am a gigantic fan of Mariah Carey and I support her in every way possible, even her sexuality. eh-hem. Yup, you heard it here first. Mariah Carey's sexuality may be questionable.

Now remember people, I only report the news, I do not make this stuff up!

My very, very, very, very reliable source have put the word out to me last night that our little miss princess, Mariah Carey may love to dip and doodle if you know what I mean, and ALLEGEDLY with longtime girl friend (eh-hem), hip hop recording artist & Jermaine Dupri protegee, Da Brat, aka Shawnte Harris of ATL, (p.s. we all know clearly what Da Brat's sexuality is....allegedly). Keep up with me now people

Newlyweds, Mariah & Nick Cannon

So word has it that, Mariah and Da Brat have been more than just friends over the past years, ALLEGEDLY. My jaw went crashing to the floor when I received this juicy earful. I had to literally stop what I was doing and take a moment to contain my composure. Apparently, and I hope this is all so false, Mariah Carey and 2nd husband, Nick Cannon's marriage is artificial, staged and untrue. Oh the insanity!! Sources are saying the marriage is simply to cover up the true fact that Mariah and Da Brat may just be more than really, close best friends. Although I do agree that her sudden marriage to Nick Cannon was a total shock I am very happy for her. I could care less what she does in her personal life.

Mariah Carey & Da Brat. Rumor of being more than just friends

So far, I truly do not believe this story is true, but as I get more information I will for sure, of course, keep you posted.

Again, for the record, I am an ultimate fan of Mariah Carey and please please please go get her new album E=MC2. It's a prelude to The Amancipation of Mimi, which is also a classic in it's own right.

Mariah Carey is truly a musical genius, very intelligent and derserves her props, no matter what her sexual preference is.
