The rags to riches story that is Mariah Carey's life. She was discovered, promoted and later married to music executive Tony Mottola, and became the biggest selling recording artist of the 1990's, and the only musical artist to have a #1 hit for every year of that decade. Shapiro's new book also includes coverage of Carey's recent break-up with Mottola, in which it was revealed that he abused her, kept her prisoner in their mansion, and her bizarre behavior when performing live. Full colour and black and white photographs.
