She's So Lucky: Glitter (2001)

IMDbitch Fest

The second installment of our She's So Lucky season is all about Mariah Carey, and somewhat about her first starring role in Glitter, a 2001 romantic musical drama directed by Vondie Curtis Hall and co-starring Da Brat, Terrence Howard, Tia Texada, and also somehow Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi!

Sparing any lyrical puns about how Obsessed we continue to be with the topic of pop stars on film or how researching for a Mariah-centric episode was a shared Fantasy come true or how All [We] Want for Christmas Is You, we'll just say that this episode truly has it all: Em*n*m; 9/11; and a special reading by Jo Hylton from Mariah Carey's memoir The Meaning of Mariah Carey.
