Mariah Carey laughs at media stories

Pop superstar Mariah Carey laughs off most of the stories about her in the press - because they are so far-fetched. The singer says being in the public eye can be strange - but she's still the same person "internally" she always was.

She says, "The private life they create for me is, like, bizarre and I read the stuff and sometimes it makes me laugh. They once wrote this thing about me and a fat farm breakdown: 'Her staff were forced to go on the same diet and then they snuck out to eat cheese burgers, then took breath mints so she wouldn't know.' I'm sitting there thinking, I wasn't in a fat farm, I was in a spa with fattening food there that I could've eaten. I don't even care about fast food, and if they had wanted to eat hamburgers until the cows came home, I wouldn't have cared.

I put that story up on my kitchen wall because I thought it was just so funny. It's weird to be in the public eye, but I feel like I'm the same person internally as when I started. I notice how a lot of people change after they're successful. Fame really twists them, and I think it's because I didn't feel famous until lately that it didn't do that to me."
