Mariah Carey has likened her failed marriage to music mogul Tommy Mottola to a “kidnapping”, insisting she was trapped in a doomed relationship.

The Hero hitmaker wed Mottola – the former Sony label boss credited with discovering her – in 1993, but the couple split four years later and divorced in 1998. And Carey, who was 23 when the pair wed, admits the marriage was one of her biggest mistakes.

She says, “I think one of my mistakes was getting married so young. I got married to Tommy Mottola under a lot of pressure. I don’t know how you would describe my marriage. It was a kidnapping in a golden cage.”

Mariah Carey has such a vigorous workout regime, that she is back to her teenage body weight.

She says that she can now wear her high school wardrobe.

She recently said, “My jean size went down to my 10th grade size.”

To get there, she has cut out fatty foods and items cooked in butter. She also gave up her favorite dish, macaroni and cheese, which she calls her comfort food.

Good for you Mariah, but keep it to yourself. You’re a grown woman and you’re glamorizing being too thin….and that’s not a good thing.
