We’ve just heard that Mariah Carey is delaying the release of her upcoming album, “Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel”.

Reportedly, the album does not have the Mariah seal of approval and that she needs more time to make it the way she wants it.

The August 31st Grammys deadline does not give her enough time to finish the CD properly.

The album is set for a tentative release of September 15, 2009.

Are you excited?

Mariah Carey wishes she had done a better job performing Jackson 5’s biggest hit, “I’ll Be There,” at Michael Jackson’s memorial Tuesday at Los Angeles’ Staples Center.

In a post on her Twitter page, the singer (who wore a black Jenny Packham gown to the service) says she was just too overcome with emotion. As Carey sang the song with frequent collaborator Trey Lorenz, photos of Jackson flashed on a huge screen above them.

“Trying to sing today was basically impossible for me,” writes Carey. “I could barely keep myself from crying. I’m sorry that I wasn’t able to pull it together and really do it right, but I was literally choked up when I saw him there in front of me.”

“One thing I know is, we will never really have to say goodbye to MJ. His legacy lives on through his music and the millions of people. He inspired with his timeless music. He will be forever in our hearts,” she adds.

Flo Anthony, a Jackson family insider, tells THE INSIDER that celebrity guests at Michael Jackson’s memorial may include Beyonce and Whitney Houston and that Mariah Carey will sing her cover of Michael’s classic, “I’ll Be There.”

She adds that she’s spoken to Tito Jackson, among others inside the family compound, where she will travel later today. As for Michael’s children, Flo says they are also there at the Encino, CA, home.

Mariah Carey’s husband Nick Cannon denies the superstar has taken a swipe at Eminem in her latest music video by dressing as the rapper – insisting she wouldn’t waste her time.

Carey trades in her usual glamorous look to dress as a thuggish man in the promo for new single Obsessed – in which her male persona has a striking resemblance to the Stan hitmaker.

Internet gossips presumed the Hero singer used the video to hit back at Eminem after he boasted of bedding the star in his track Bagpipes from Baghdad.

But Carey’s partner, actor/rapper Cannon, is adamant she wasn’t planning to take aim at the controversial hip-hop star with her cross-dressing video.

He tells MTV.com, “Honestly, I don’t think so. I don’t think that she would take her time. My wife doesn’t beef. She’s Mariah Carey. She’s not beefin’, she’s a vegetarian. I always say I thought the record was about me, ’cause I’m obsessed with my wife. But if somebody’s out there and you feel like you might have been obsessed, then the record’s about you.”

Scary!

Mariah Carey surprised the fans and crew around her as she did a little bit of cross-dressing outside the Plaza Hotel in New York City, New York June 29, 2009. Carey dressed as a chauffeur, but the best was when the beautiful singer came out as an Eminem look a like during the filming of her new music video “Obsessed”, which happens to be featured on Mimi’s soon-to-be released album called “Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel”. The track is in response to Eminem’s recent lyrical attacks of Miss Carey and her hubby, Nick Cannon.
