The Meaning of Mariah Carey is not without its surprises — amid descriptions of her life at the top are revelations about her difficult family life, her abusive marriage to Tommy Mottola, and her 2001 Glitter “breakdown”
Photo: Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images Throughout her career, Mariah Carey has reminded fans and critics that she’s a writer — she puts words to the page for her own songs, and always has. She’s teased an eventual memoir for years, finally releasing it, with perfect Carey timing, for the 30th anniversary of her music industry beginnings. The Meaning of Mariah Carey, co-written with Michaela Angela Davis, traces Carey’s journey to becoming one of the biggest pop stars in the world.
2. Mottola fought with her around colleagues Carey details many specific fights during her relationship with Tommy Mottola, the Sony Entertainment CEO credited with discovering Carey, whom she married in 1993. She says he monitored her closely at their Bedford, New York, compound, which she calls “Sing Sing,” a nod to the infamous maximum-security prison.
5. Her assistant helped her keep her relationship with Derek Jeter secret Ahead of her memoir, Carey told Oprah of her relationship with Derek Jeter, which she called the “catalyst” for leaving Mottola. After the two met at a rare dinner outing away from Mottola — which Jeter, a big fan of Carey’s, later told her he’d arranged — they kept in touch, with Carey texting and calling Jeter in secret. “I enrolled my assistant,” she wrote.
8. Her brother and mother played roles in her Glitter ‘breakdown’ After filming the video for “Loverboy,” Carey was set to shoot a video for “Never Too Far,” but she needed to rest, she writes, so skipped the video shoot. Carey says that after her handlers at the label couldn’t reach her at her penthouse, they sent family members to find her at a hotel she had checked into. Carey then went to a backup singer’s apartment, where her brother Morgan finally found her.
