Overview
- In a Harper’s Bazaar UK interview, Carey says she sometimes still feels anger about her 1993–98 marriage to Tommy Mottola but has made peace with it by leaning on humor.
- She describes laughter as her main way to prevent past hurts from turning into “a sob story.”
- Carey recounts that Mottola routinely shot down her proposals to record more R&B and urban music during their union.
- Her 16th studio album, Here for It All, is confirmed for release on September 26, 2025, after the early arrival of two tracks, “Type Dangerous” and “Sugar Sweet.”
- These reflections build on her 2020 memoir, where she detailed the restrictive aspects of her early career under Mottola’s oversight.
