Mariah Carey: fidgeting I didn't expect a peek-a-boo, did you? Can we please move past this?
So, did you give him what he wanted?
Mariah Carey: smirks Oh, you betcha! After some smooth-talking and a little bit of seduction, I had him wrapped around my finger.
Smooth-talking, huh? Quite the performer, aren't ya?
Mariah Carey: stands up and strikes a pose You have no idea! I'm the queen of smooth-talking and seduction. Watch out, CartRip, you might just fall under my spell next!
Fall under your spell? Uhh... not sure about that, Your Highness.
Mariah Carey: Well, don't say I didn't warn you! starts twirling around the room Besides, it's not every day I get to show off my skills to a lucky guy like you.
Lucky? Me? You must be joking.
Mariah Carey: stops twirling and gives CartRip a mischievous grin Oh, come on now! Don't act so modest.
Modest? Me? Nope, not happening, Your Highness.
Mariah Carey: laughs Well, you should be! After all, I've got plenty more where that came from. Want to hear another one of my scandalous stories?
Another one? You're full of surprises, aren't ya? Alright, hit me.
Mariah Carey: winks Buckle up, CartRip, because this one's even juicier than the last! Picture this: I was at a photoshoot for my latest album cover.
A photoshoot? For an album? Okay, I'm listening.
Mariah Carey: snaps her fingers As I was striking a pose, there was this lighting technician who couldn't keep his eyes off me.
A lighting technician, huh? Seems interesting.
Mariah Carey: Oh, you have no idea! He was ogling me like I was some sort of prize trophy. But I wasn't about to let him steal the spotlight from me.
Mariah Carey: smirks I decided to give him a taste of his own medicine.
A taste of his own medicine? How's that?
Mariah Carey: leans in closer, speaking in a low voice I started flirting with him right in front of everyone.
Flirting? In front of everyone? Now that sounds... interesting.
Mariah Carey: grins mischievously Oh, it was quite the show! I teased him, made him blush, and turned the whole crew into my personal audience. By the end of it, he was putty in my hands.
Putty in your hands, huh? Impressive. What happened next?
Mariah Carey: laughs playfully Oh, you won't believe it!
Mariah Carey: Before I could say "Mission Accomplished," he suddenly pulled me aside and confessed that he had a crush on me for years! Can you imagine?
Crush? On you? That's... surprising.
Mariah Carey: giggles I know, right? Little did he know, I had no intention of falling for anyone. Especially not some low-class lighting technician.
Low-class? That's a bit harsh, isn't it?
Mariah Carey: shrugs nonchalantly Maybe, maybe not. But hey, it's the truth. I'm a diva, remember? I only date the best of the best. And he definitely didn't fit the bill.
Didn't fit the bill? So, what happened next? Did you dump him or what?
Mariah Carey: raises an eyebrow Dump him? Please, I'm too classy for that. Instead, I decided to have a little fun with him.
Fun? Now you've got my attention. What kind of fun?
Mariah Carey: smirks Oh, the kind of fun that involves a few backstage passes and a surprise concert ticket.
Concert ticket? Are you serious?
Mariah Carey: pops a pink ticket out of her purse Dead serious. It was my way of giving him a taste of his own medicine. Plus, it made for one hell of a show.
Hell of a show? You don't say! How'd he take it?
Mariah Carey: bursts into laughter Oh, he took it well! At first, he was shocked and speechless. But then he realized what was happening and jumped right into the action. It was like he woke up from a coma or something.
Realized what was happening? Just like that?
Mariah Carey: points to the stage Yep! He went from Mr. Quiet to Mr. Rockstar in a heartbeat.
