Mariah Carey’s Giant Goddess Legs Get Worshipped

Mariah Carey is currently riding the crest of a wave after her last album reassured the public that she wasn't as much of a mentally defunct diva as they had previously thought.

And now for the cherry on top of Mariah Carey's cake - who cares about singing or talent or anything like that when there's a ceremony prepared to celebrate Mariah Carey's Celebrity Legs Of A Goddess, whatever the flipping shittery that's supposed to mean.

To think, it was just a few years ago that Mariah Carey was being written off by anyone and everyone for making Glitter - a film so bad that it actually seemed to destroy Mariah's mind. She left a bizarre voicemail message on her website that went on and on about rainbows, and disappeared - seemingly forever - into a world of touring tiny out-of-the-way countries and deciding to become a cockney.

But now Mariah Carey is officially back. Her Emancipation Of Mimi album sold a gazillion copies and won a gazillion awards, and Mariah is doing all the things we love her for - like being uncomfortably demanding during Live 8 and telling French waiters that she's just weed in her knicky-knicks.

And - as if that wasn't enough for the babbling, frothing army of Mariah Carey fans - Mariah Carey has now been given the ultimate plaudit; that of having 'Celebrity Legs Of A Goddess'. Next week, Mariah Carey will attend a ceremony where a five-metre statue of her legs will be unveiled. Why?

Call us cynical old bastards, but the fact that Mariah Carey plans to announce a giant 30-date tour during this whole celebrity goddess legs malarky might just have something to do with it. But who cares? As if you a need a reason to travel to New York to gawp at and try to lick a giant statue of Mariah Carey's legs.
