It’s only April, but Mariah Carey is already getting in the holiday spirit. The pop diva recently shot the packaging for her new Christmas album with famed photographer David LaChapelle.

U.K. newspaper The Times interviewed LaChapelle while he was prepping for his festive shoot with the singer at his Los Angeles studio. He photographed Carey for her 1999 album Rainbow and directed her “Loverboy” music video.

The seasonal visuals called for a graffitied city backdrop, fake snow, a “hideous” silver tree, and wooden cutout reindeers. “Mariah wanted real ones,” said LaChapelle. “Flown from Nebraska. Can you imagine, real reindeer?”

Despite her request for real reindeer, he insisted the songbird “isn’t a diva,” adding, “She never pisses on the little people.”

Carey hinted that she was working on a new project after scrapping plans for her Angels Advocate remix album. She has been in the studio recording with Jermaine Dupri, but it is unknown where that material will end up.

Her first Christmas album, 1994’s Merry Christmas, has sold 12 million copies worldwide and spawned the classic “All I Want for Christmas Is You.

I just don't like that dress she's wearing

Is it me or she's getting thicker than a muhfugger.

Well IMO she never had any sense of style in her life, so I am not surprised that nothing about that outfit fits or is flattering at all .

Serious said:

That's true.

I think she looks good lol Mariah's not Mariah unless she's wearing something age (or size) inappropriate. The formal, conservative stuff looks good on her, but it doesn't fit with her personality.

Looking forward to a new Xmas album too, didn't she say she was trying to do a musical/film based on the old Christmas album?

luv4u said:

yeppers, : it's very unflattering for mariah. when that size one should not wear clingy flowing types of material.

errant said:

Either that or a photo that has been photo shopped and airbrushed, like a motherFUCKER!!

Poor Moo Moo


She probably thinks she's killing it too!

She'd score at least a 9 on ratemycameltoe.com

...or like pretty much every official Prince photo of the last years

TheVoid said:

I don't see any cameltoe what I see is the outline of a huge dick. What's up with that?

Stop talking about Christmas, the spring hasn´t even started yet.

And yeah, Mariah doesn´t look good at all in these pictures. I´ve also never liked her style.

The dress is awful, but I don't think she looks that big. She's hardly obese.
I'm really disappointed that the album is a Xmas album.

This isn't a new picture. Its from the MIMI era (2005)
The dog is Jack, but he's dead now
