Spike Lee's Mini Film For Mariah

this shit is so funny, titled Lovers & Haters

http://www.youtube.com/wa...fR0UkPMnyA

on the film:

In mid-July of 2006, Mariah, with the help of Director Spike Lee, filmed tongue-in-cheek vignettes for The Adventures of Mimi tour. The vignettes are about Mariah's tight dresses, her breasts, her nervous breakdown. Mariah explains the concept, "I want all that stuff in. Basically, it's NOT taking yourself too seriously." Filmed in two scenes: in a club and in a Ladies' room, the video skits premiered at the July 29th Pepsi Smash Live concert in Los Angeles, and later played in early tour shows.

..

P.S. I read that the whole 15-minute film is going to be released on DVD, though nothing's confirmed yet.

more details on the project:

Mariah Carey aims to spoof herself and her life in the upcoming film short, Lovers & Haters.

The Spike Lee directed flick, to be produced by 40 Acres & A Mule Filmworks, is a spoof of the life of Carey, with the 'lovers and haters' that she encounters along the way, and how she overcomes those obstacles to still be one of the most talented and loved musical sensations in history.

Lee also directed similar vignettes that became video features during Carey's 2006 tour The Adventures of Mimi.

Carey worked alongside Benny Medina as executive producer on the 15 minute, $5 million film short.

According to IMDb.com (Internet Movie Database), Lovers & Haters is slated for release on September 16 of this year.

As previously reported by SOHH, in additional to filming the feature length film Tennessee due out later this year, Carey is also in the studio collaborating with super producer Jermaine Dupri on the follow-up to her hit CD The Emancipation of Mimi.
