Description de l'objet

The Rags-To-Riches Story Of The World's Best-Selling Female Musical Artist; Mariah Carey grew up in a broken home, poor and with no friends. Singing was to be her salvation. One day at a music industry party, a musician slipped executive Tommy Lottola a demo tape of Carey. Bored, he played it on his way home in the limo. Mottola knew right away he was listening to gold, and he went back to look for Carey. But just like in the Cinderella story, she had already left. Mottola followed the tracks of Carey's slipper and by 1990, at the age of 21, she HAD achieved instant stardom. Her debut album sold more than seven million copies, and she got to marry Mottola, her Prince Charming. Marc Shapiro's new biography charts this Cinderella story in which Carey becomes the biggest selling recording artist of the 1990s, and the only singer to earn a Number One single in every year of the decade. Shapiro's new book also includes coverage of Carey's recent break-up with Mottola, in which it was revealed that he abused her and kept her prisoner in their mansion, and investigates her bizarre behaviour at live shows
