THE 
May 17, 2009 Mariah & Nick At Roberto Cavalli’s Dinner!
Mariah Carey (rocking Roberto Cavalli Spring 2009) and hubby Nick Cannon attended Roberto Cavalli’s dinner held on his yacht during the 62nd International Cannes Film Festival Saturday night in Cannes. Mariah recently spoke on her reasoning for her role as a social worker in her new film Precious with UK’s ITN:
“I had to kind of completely lose everything that is me – the celebrity or the singer or however you want to describe me. That was number one like that had to go out the window immediately and that wasn’t an issue really. Aside from that, it was like shedding layers of a mask or just skin, just really like becoming somebody completely new. Even more than just like, ‘Okay, there’s no make-up in this, we’re gonna do a prosthetic nose.’ They tried to do prosthetic nose. My face broke out from that. We had to take it off but it still… then it just enlarged my nose. It was like everything that could go wrong, you know, Lee wanted me to look as unglamorous as I could because you really didn’t want people to be taken out of the film but he believed that I could do this role of the social worker.”ITN
I’m so excited about seeing Precious – there’s already Oscar-buzz surrounding Mo’Nique and Mariah!
Thoughts?

LOL @ Sppicey Goddess. She just want us to know. This movie does look so amazing. Oscars for Monique and supporting for Gabby or even MC!
They all looked fabulous on the red carpet at Cannes. Lenny is so fine, lazy right eye and all.
