Cake Poker Babe of the Week: Mariah Carey Drunk

Mariah Carey drunk is preferable to Mariah Carey sober.

Let me preface this post by saying that I would never elect Mariah Carey as the Cake Poker Babe of the Week, but drunk Mariah Carey? Now that’s a different story.

As most of you know, Mariah Carey is all over the news right now because she gave an acceptance speech that was slurred, incoherent, embarrassing and weird. The media has taken the angle of treating this as some kind of bizarre occurrence and continually poses headline questions like, “What Happened to Mariah?” or “Why Mariah’s Speech Was So Bizarre?”

It doesn’t take a team of investigative journalists. It’s just a drunk singer slurring her way through an acceptance speech. It’s not a mystery or even a big deal. The woman was at a celebratory event and she got hammered. She’s not a politician, she’s a musician. She’d be remiss if she wasn’t drunk on occasion.

Also, what seemed to be missed by the media is that her acceptance speech for the People’s Choice Awards seemed to be delivered a little under the influence. Not to judge, just saying that I think the story with Mariah is not that she was drunk but that she was drunk on Tuesday and then drunk again on Thursday. I’d like to be the first to say, congratulations.

Anyway, here’s to you Mariah. You seem like an obnoxious diva from hell, but, like my grandfather used to say, pretty much everything is better with alcohol.
