Mariah Carey’s New Movie Is Coming For YOU

'Glitter'-phobes beware?
September 13th, 2008

Mariah Carey and new hubby Nick Cannon were on hand here in NYC last night for a premiere screening event for her new movie Tennessee which took place as part of the Urbanworld Film Festival. Uh huh. Never fear, y’all … just cuz you missed seeing Tennessee at this year’s Urbanworld Film Festival doesn’t mean that all hope is lost … no siree … it is being reported that Mariah Carey’s first movie since her disastrous movie Glitter will, in fact, be making its way to movie theaters this December. Isn’t that amazing news?! Here are pics of Mr. & Mrs. Cannon at last night’s premiere screening event:


Seven years after her disastrous movie headlining debut “Glitter,” pop star Mariah Carey will return to theaters in December. Vivendi Entertainment has acquired all domestic rights to the road trip drama “Tennessee,” which premiered at this spring’s Tribeca Film Festival in New York. The quiet — and at times moody — drama centers on two lower-middle class brothers (Adam Rothenberg, Ethan Peck) who take to the road to resolve their economic and health challenges. Along the way they meet a waitress (Carey) whose dreams of a singing career have been dashed by a bad marriage. Though not a musical, director Lee Daniels’ film features Carey performing the original ballad “Right to Dream,” which she co-wrote with Willie Nelson.

Has it been 7 years already? My, how time flies. In her defense, I hear that Tennessee is much different, much better than Glitter (which can’t be too hard to achieve, right?) and in all honesty, I’m actually looking forward to seeing Mimi up on the big screen again. Tho, I’m hoping that her cameo role in this year’s You Don’t Mess With The Zohan is no indication of her acting prowess these days … cuz … yeah. Oh and I’m glad to see that the newlyweds are still all in the holding hands almost every second of the day stage of their marriage. Surely, they’ll be together forever. So … any Glitter fans out there? Are any of y’all looking forward to seeing Mimi in a serious acting role?

    THere is another Mariah movie out there called Wisegirls. MC is actually pretty damn good in that movie…not an Oscar performance by any means, but I think people are basing Mariah’s acting abilities primarily on Glitter…unfortunately.

    BTW, Glitter IS a fantastic movie when you have a few drinks…actually quite a few drinks.

    yeah wisegirls was a good movie.

  3. Nicole Says:

    i saw a couple clips for this movie…she seemed to do pretty decent. i heard the movie its self is suppose to really good.

    in all honesty….gitter wasnt THAT bad, wasnt great was wasnt completely horrible.

    i was really impressed with wisegirls. alot better then i thought it was going to be.

    Wow!! I am totally humbled by the decent comments left by Danity, jajaja & Nicole. People hear Mariah Carey & the haters come out in full force. I still do not see what was SO terrible about Glitter. There are many, many, many, many, many more movies that are way worse (anything with Madonna & J.Lo). In Wisegirls she was bloody brilliant as Rachel. I went to see the Zohan movie just because MC was in it & I don’t understand why you’re (Trent) hating on her cameo. It was a silly Adam Sandler movie where she had to play up her celebrity, she did fine. Anyway, haters DO NOT matter. You don’t get to be the BEST selling female artist EVER, without people being jealous & envious. Bow down to the Queen!!!!!

    Mariah can act (and she has real comedic talent). Has anyone seen the full version of the music video for ‘Heartbreaker’?). Glitter was just a poorly planned movie. I think it was just a time when people were over Mariah and all her success and wanted to take her star down a peg. People also love to hate Madonna’s acting skills … but she did a dam fine job in Evita.
