Buy Me Something Dammit


Mariah Carey must be feeling the pain. Here she did the whole wedding thing and all she got was a money grubbing husband. No gifts, not attention, no gifts, no party, no gifts, and last but not least, no gifts. Mariah who loves material things much more than any other person who has walked the earth before her is trying to correct that little oversight. According to the NY Post Mariah decided she didn't want to go through the trouble of some formal reception or party or anything that would possibly cost her a dime. She already has a husband who does that. No, what Mariah wants and the only thing she cares about is the gift. The present. The swag.

To that end, Mariah headed on over to Target. No? Pottery Barn? No? Oh. Well in the spirit of Get Smart, opening in theatres on June 20th, "Would you believe Bergdorf Goodman?" Well you should believe it because that is where she registered. Nothing under five figures. Mariah had her assistant e-mail the richest 100 people Mariah knows and told them where she was registered and to get her something.

Ahh true love.

  8. She's all class, I tell ya.

  9. Guess that list would cover her lawyers, accountants, handlers, agents, record co. execs, producers, people who basically owe their livelihood to her. They're probably grateful they don't have to go to a reception.

    Didn't she get a truckload of stuff when she married Tommy Mattola? Or did she have to walk away from it in order to get the divorce?

    She's probably going to turn the stuff over to consignment shops or re-gift it, anyway.

  10. Oh, *I* just had an epiphany-- the groom will get all the presents. It's part of his deal.

  11. I didn't know Bergdorf's carried Hello, Kitty.

  12. You can see he thinks he made the biggest mistake of his life in his face. And all the toys in the world aren't enough to make up for having to live with Mariah. I can only imagine what a nightmare it would be to wake up in the morning and face that bottomless hole of need all day long. It sucks to be bought.

  13. Adrian, I almost spit out my Dr. Pepper when I read your comment, lol.

  14. Lisa--it is too hot to spit out a perfectly good drink. If you like Dr Pepper, you might like Turkey Hill Rootbeer Float ice cream. It is Vanilla icecream (maybe sorbet?) with mounds of rootbeer in it. Yum!
    We have been having 100+ degree heatwave here--I try not to spit my liquids out if I can help it, but some of these comments make it hard to refrain!

  16. jax, she probably couldn't find anyone to buy them for her--had to use Duane Reade's brand.

  17. Too bad she's not registered at Home Depot - I'd send her 200 lbs. for their finest fertilizer.
