MiMi’s up in Arms

Interrupted songbird Mariah Carey caught some feelings behind the fact that she wasn’t picked to be a part of President Obama‘s inaugural entourage at the The Neighborhood Ball:

Mariah Carey was “furious” after discovering she would be seated for the inauguration of new U.S. President Barack Obama at Tuesday’s ceremony – because she was convinced organizers would allow her onstage.

[Carey] attended the swearing-in and later wowed crowds at The Neighborhood Ball celebration that evening, which also saw performances by Mary J. Blige and Beyonce Knowles. But singer was left disappointed after being told she would have to sit down for the event, as she thought she would be standing with Obama on the podium, according to reports.

A source tells New York gossip column PageSix.com, “Mariah was in the VIP area, where every celebrity, like Jon Bon Jovi, Mary J. Blige, Alicia Keys and Bruce Springsteen, was seated.

“But somehow she thought she’d be up with the Obama family. When she realized she wasn’t, she bailed.”

It’s just like a delusional diva to think the inauguration was all about her. Good thing she wasn’t invited to the stage. If there were anymore egos up in that joint with the Obama’s, it would’ve collapsed.
