Mariah Carey showed up at Hot 97 studios in New York yesterday in the biggest, most unflattering pair of denim shorts the world has ever known, including Levi’s brief foray into bib-front overall shorts and the Navy’s unfortunate experiment with military-issue denim culottes. She got the knickers part right, but if she really wants to work the Regency Era, she’s missing the tailed jacket and a pair of shoes with buckles. Also a powdered wig. It’d help if she had consumption or dropsy or maybe unchecked syphilis and a staunch opinion on The Great Reform Act of 1832. Sorry, Mariah, but you’ve got nothing on colonial Williamsburg.
