Mariah Carey blames dress
Mariah Carey is blaming her Chanel dress for her imperfect appearance at the Golden Globe awards. On the night, US fashion expert David Evangelista said the "Hero" singer's plunging black number "looked like a wine bottle opener".
Now Carey has hit back, blaming the outfit's figure-hugging fabric. She told America's Rolling Stone magazine: "Satin is very unforgiving. What was I going to do? Call Karl Legerfeld and say, 'Can you please make it out of matte jersey instead?'"
The morning after the event - when designers usually plug who wore their dresses - Chanel reportedly left the singer's name off their press release. Publicist for the ashion house, Gretchen Gunlocke-Fenton, denied it was done deliberately.
She said: "Was she left off? That could have been because we're never sure what the stars will wear until the last minute. And she had several fittings in Los Angeles after she met personally with Karl in Paris." (Life Style Extra)
